Fox is doubling down on a pair of freshman crime dramas. The network has renewed both Accused and Alert: Missing Persons Unit for second seasons.
Both shows come from Sony Pictures Television. The renewal of Howard Gordon’s crime anthology series Accused was expected, given that it opened strong with a 2.0 rating in the 18-49 demo and 8.4M viewers on live+same day data and grew to more than 11.3M multi-platform viewers and a 2.3 rating in the demo in the three days after its premiere, making it broadcast’s highest-rated debut in nearly two years, since the premiere of NBC’s Law & Order: Organized Crime in April 2021. RELATED: Fox Renewal Status Report: ‘9-1-1’, ‘Lone Star’, ‘The Resident’, ‘Animal Control’, ‘Call Me Kat,’ ‘Flatch’ & More Alert was less of a guarantee but Michael Thorn, President, Scripted Programming at Fox, recently told Deadline that it was a “solid performer” and was “encouraged” by its delayed viewing.
The show, however, will have a new showrunner for season two with Carla Kettner, who was an exec producer of The Blacklist, replacing John Eisendrath, who served as showrunner for season one.
Kettner recently created Panhandle for Spectrum Originals and Roku. Given that both shows come from Sony Pictures Television, an independent studio without its own network or streaming service, means that they were able to be more flexible in terms of dealmaking.
