Fox is doubling down on a pair of freshman crime dramas. The network has renewed "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
"Accused", based on the BBC series, is broadcast’s highest-rated debut in nearly two years, since the premiere of NBC’s "Law & Order: Organized Crime" in April 2021.
Michael Thorn, President, Scripted Programming at Fox, said of the renewal:
“Howard Gordon has taken the crime anthology to new heights and acclaim, featuring an all-star roster of directors and talent headlining gripping episodes that entertain viewers with a provocative, fresh take on many of the most relevant, timely issues of our day.”
