I discovered the show last year and fortunately caught most of the second season and the first season reruns. But I have no idea when its coming back so that I can set my DVR to grab it. Does anyone know? ---

it aired over the summer this year so the next season is going to run this coming summer. [http://www.zap2it.com/tv/news/zap-fxrenewsitsalwayssunny,0,6450620.story?coll=zap-news-headlines](http://www.zap2it.com/tv/news/zap-fxrenewsitsalwayssunny,0,6450620.story?coll=zap-news-headlines) ---

I’ll never forgive it for being responsible for the cancellation of the hugely superior _Starved_. ---

Wow, it runs in the summer then not again until the _next summer_? Bummer. I’d be happy to watch reruns as I only ended up seeing three episodes, but loved it. I just can commit to being in front of the T.V. for a particular timeslot and I’m usually out at night (also I can never remember what channel FX is!). I’m the perfect candidate for TiVo. I really need to get it. Someone told me it aired on another network, got cancelled, then got picked up by FX. I didn’t see it at all until FX. Does FX get to air the epidsodes produced by the other network? ---

It is/was an “FX original”. But big brother Fox reaired a few first season episodes at some point…I think it was shortly before the 2nd season aired last summer. I watched Starved too. Woulda done better on HBO. ---

[QUOTE=Eve] I’ll never forgive it for being responsible for the cancellation of the hugely superior _Starved_. [/QUOTE] I loved them both equally. I was as surprised when they axed Starved as I was when they axed Lucky.
