Justified, Archer, Anger Management, And Legit Premiere Dates Set By FX

When FX decides to set premiere dates, the network doesn’t mess around. For fans who have been looking forward to new seasons of Justified, Archer, and Anger Management, or who are wanting to check out the network’s brand new comedy, Legit, will be able to do so sooner than anyone may have expected.

Justified will be the first series to return to the schedule, beginning with the show’s Season 4 opener on Tuesday, January 8 at 1o p.m. ET. The drama, which follows the reassigned U.S. Deputy Marshall Raylan Givens as he deals with crimes, will open up with Raylan taking a look at a cold case. According to TV Line, the series opener will follow a criminal case that occurred over 30 years in the past, and will remind the Marshall of his childhood and his criminal father.

We don’t have plot-specific news for any of the other premiere dates, but we do know they are all slated for Thursday, January 17. Anger Management, which stars Charlie Sheen, will takeover the 9 and 9:30 p.m. ET slots, and it’s really no surprise the network would give the show time to air two episodes, considering it has been renewed for 90 more new episodes. Archer will follow at 10 p.m. ET. Finally, FX’s brand new comedy, Legit, which follows an Australia comedian trying to break in on the Los Angeles scene, will air at 10:30 p.m. ET.

I’m sure the network will be advertising for the premieres over the next month, but don’t forget to make time in your schedule, or set the DVR.
