Veteran TNT drama "Rizzoli & Isles", now airing its sixth season, has been renewed for Season 7 with a 13-episode order to air next summer. Star Angie Harmon tweeted the news this afternoon.

"Rizzoli & Isles", toplined by Harmon and Sasha Alexander, launched as part of TNT’s previous strategy that focused on crime procedurals to complement the network’s well performing off-network acquisitions like "Law & Order". It was a breakout hit and remains a top performer for the network, especially in total viewers.



"Rizzoli & Isles" ranked as basic cable’s No. 1 summer series last year and currently occupies the top spot this summer. Overall, the sixth season is reaching an average of 11.1 million viewers per episode across TNT’s on-demand, digital and mobile platforms.

Under new Turner boss Kevin Reilly, TNT has been moving toward edgier, darker drama fare, with only a few of the network’s old shows staying on. The 13-episode Season 7 order for "Rizzoli & Isles" is the smallest for the drama since its 10-episode freshman run.

Glad it's been renewed, it's a pretty good show.
