FX Cancels 'Lights Out' After One Season
FX has decided not to renew freshman boxing drama Lights Out for a second season. Lights Out was one of the most critically praised new series this season, punctuated by a breakout performance by Holt McCallany as the title character, a washed-out former heavyweight champion looking for a comeback. But, just like with FX's now-defunct drama Terriers last fall, Lights Out never found traction in the ratings, leading to FX's decision to cancel it after one season. It premiered in January with 1.5 million viewers, 793,000 of them in the adults 18-49 demographic, and slipped even further throughout its run. The final two episodes of Lights Out will air as scheduled March 29 and April 5 in the series' Tuesday 10 PM time period.
