TNT has announced, via press release, that have renewed three of its chart-topping summer hit shows: The Last Ship, Major Crimes and, for its final season, Falling Skies. The Last Ship (starring Adam Baldwin) will get 13 episodes next season, an increase over the first season order of 10 episodes. Major Crimes (starring Mary McDonnell) was given 15 episodes for its fourth season, while Falling Skies will complete its fifth and final season with 10 episodes.
“TNT’s refreshed and recharged drama brand is soaring this summer and that is due in large part to these three enormously popular dramas,” said Michael Wright, president, head of programming for TNT, TBS and Turner classic Movies (TCM).
