\n\tFox<\/a> will continue to probe the Memory of a Killer<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe network has renewed its first-year drama starring Patrick Dempsey<\/a> for a second season in 2026-27. Memory of a Killer joins fellow rookie Best Medicine<\/a> in earning a spot on next season\u2019s schedule; Fox has also renewed Doc for a third season<\/a> and has yet to make a decision on its other drama series, Murder in a Small Town.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe renewal comes as Memory of a Killer, a co-production between Fox and Warner Bros. TV, airs its season finale Monday night.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cMemory of a Killer\u00a0has become a true standout with visceral performances from Patrick Dempsey and Michael Imperioli,\u201d said Fox Television Network president Michael Thorn. \u201c[Showrunners] Aaron Zelman, Glenn Kessler, and our partners at Warner Bros. Television have delivered a sharp, emotional character-driven thriller that\u2019s clearly landed with viewers, and we\u2019re excited to continue that success together in season two.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tZelman and Kessler will remain as showrunners in season two. They took the reins midway through production on the season, stepping in for Ed Whitmore, Tracey Malone and David Schulner, who developed the series.<\/p>\n

\n\tBased on a novel and 2003 Belgian film titled De Zaak Alzheimer, Memory of a Killer stars Patrick Dempsey as Angelo, a hitman who leads a double life, hiding his deadly job from his loved ones. He is also losing his memory, a secret he tries to keep from everyone he knows.<\/p>\n

\n\tMichael Imperioli, Richard Harmon, Odeya Rush, Daniel David Stewart and Peter Gadiot also star, and Gina Torres has a recurring role.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe series had a strong premiere after the NFC Championship game in January and has since grown to 16.2 million cross-platform viewers. Subsequent episodes in its regular home on Mondays haven\u2019t been that big (unsurprisingly), but it has had solid returns streaming on Hulu.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cWe\u2019re thrilled Fox has renewed\u00a0Memory of a Killer\u00a0for a second season, a richly deserved renewal given the show\u2019s great critical, creative, and\u00a0commercial success,\u201d said Channing Dungey, chairman and CEO of Warner Bros. Television Group and WBD U.S. Networks. \u201cThe performances of\u00a0Patrick Dempsey and Michael Imperioli\u00a0have been powerful and compelling, and we can\u2019t wait to see what the show\u2019s brilliant creative team has in store for Angelo\u2019s next chapter.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\tZelman and Kessler executive produce with Dempsey, Arthur Sarkissian, Martin Campbell and Peter Bouckaert of Eyeworks.<\/p>\n
