Fans of the Christian Slater-Michael Rosenbaum-Bret Harrison FOX sitcom Breaking In may have some good news.
Various media outlets including TV Guide and Deadline are reporting that FOX is on the verge of giving the show a 13 episode order for Season 2 as a midseason show.
UPDATE: The show is officially renewed! Here’s the press release from FOX. Hopefully the lack of Rosenbaum in the press release is not a sign of bad news to come…
“BREAKING IN” SECURES SECOND SEASON ON FOX
FOX has renewed the comedy series BREAKING IN for a 13-episode second season to return to the network’s schedule in 2012, it was announced today by Kevin Reilly, President of Entertainment, Fox Broadcasting Company.
“BREAKING IN is a creatively vibrant and wildly adventurous comedy,” said Reilly. “We are looking forward to bringing it back for a second season and continuing our relationship with this incredibly talented cast and these fantastic creators – Adam Goldberg and Seth Gordon. We can’t wait to see where they take these characters next year.”
Created by Adam F. Goldberg (“Fanboys”) and Seth Gordon (“Horrible Bosses”), BREAKING IN is a workplace comedy about a high-tech security firm that takes extreme – and often questionable – measures to sell their protection services. The series centers on a team of uniquely skilled oddball geniuses hand-picked to work for OZ, a manipulative mastermind played by Christian Slater. The series also stars Bret Harrison, Alphonso McAuley and Odette Annable.
BREAKING IN is produced by Happy Madison Productions, Adam F. Goldberg Productions and Sethsquatch, Inc. in association with Sony Pictures Television. Goldberg, Gordon and Doug Robinson (“Rules of Engagement”) serve as executive producers.
sah-weet!
I AM GLAD THAT FOX BREAKING IN WILL BE RETURNING TO TV. I AM STILL HOPPING THAT THE FIRST SEASON WILL BE AVAILABLE ON DVD. IT IS RARE TO SEE A SHOW THAT WORK WELL WITH ALL THE COST. CHRISTIAN SLATER DESERVE A SHOW THAT WASN'T CANCELLED. I TRULY ENJOY MICHAEL ROSENBAUM'S CHARACTER. I HOPE THAT THE WRITER WILL TELL MORE ABOUT THEIR BACKGROUND. GOOD LUCK TO THE FUTURE. YOUR TRULY CHARLES DAVID HASKELL
Oh, darn!!!! And I wanted to rub it in Michael Rosenbaum's face. :-(
