TNT renews Southland for 4th season

http://www.deadline.com/2011/03/its-...ews-southland/



TNT’s critically acclaimed drama series SOUTHLAND will return for a fourth season. TNT has ordered 10 new episodes of the gritty, realistic cop drama, which wrapped up its third season March 8. SOUTHLAND stars Michael Cudlitz (Band of Brothers, A River Runs Through It), Shawn Hatosy (Dexter, Public Enemies), Regina King (Ray, Jerry Maguire) and Ben McKenzie (The O.C.). The series has averaged 2.9 million viewers this season, up 6% compared to the second season.

Love it!! Southland is the little show that could! Glad to see it survive for 10 more episodes.

Nice I recently got my wife hooked on this show, and she isn't the type who likes cop shows.

Good news, but I expected it to not get picked up and wiped most of S3 off my DVR unwatched. Here's hoping it comes out on video before S4 so I can catch up again.

Seriously? You gave up on it because you thought it was going to get cancelled? Why not just roll with it? The show has never been a ratings hit, but has been a critical favorite and has always produced solid episodes. Plus, it's not heavily serialized except a few character arcs. You missed out on some great episodes this past season.

Edit:

Episodes 6-10 are on TNT's website.

I already had a full plate of programming and TNT started airing this on the worst night for me DVR-wise and just when a lot of shows were starting up again. I missed S2 so I figured once I'd not gotten to episode 7 of S3 without watching a one it was just time to give up. Why are you judging me?

Re: TNT renews Southland for 4th season

Does anyone think WB will release Season 2 along with Season 3 on DVD? I'm kind of surprised that the second season still hasn't been announced yet.

They should actually combine them. After all it's only 16 episodes total for both. Maybe with the renewal announcement and critical acclaim, we can finally get it released later this year. I say Warner Bros should try to get it released by November or December to promote season 4.

I'm glad for the show, but it's a nice coincedence that one of my better friends is named Jon Cooper and I get to mock him for being a gay drug addict on this show.

Yet he's still THE highlight of the show, who has the best lines, best attitude, and is all around awesome...despite his back troubles and what it's done to him.

Lucy Liu has joined the cast of Southland for season 4. It sounds like she will appear in all 10 episodes as a "Special Guest star"
