FX orders more episodes of 'Anger Management'
LOS ANGELES (AP) - FX is ordering 90 more episodes of "Anger Management," Charlie Sheen's TV comeback vehicle after being fired from "Two and a Half Men."
The unusually large order reflects the original agreement FX made for the sitcom that stars Sheen as a therapist.
As part of the deal, FX set a ratings target for eight of the first 10 episodes of "Anger Management." The show reached the threshold, earning an automatic 90-episode order, the channel said.
The round figure of 100 episodes is the benchmark for series syndication, and that's the future for episodes that have shown first on FX, said producer Debmar-Mercury, a Lionsgate subsidiary.
In July, Sheen said the prospect of continuing is as "exciting as hell," and added, "I don't think 90's gonna be enough."
FX called "Anger Management" cable's highest-rated new comedy series this year, averaging 4.5 million total viewers.
