"Lights Out" Premiere Bombs: FX President Pledges Support For Boxing-Themed Drama

LOL -- good point. Holt McCallany ain't the typical leading man.

Then again, neither was James Gandolfini.

The Sopranos didn't do that well right at the start, either.

Neither did Sons of Anarchy.

So there's still hope.

It really does remind me of The Sopranos, except a retired boxer making ends meet just can't compare to a mafia boss during the death of the mafia.

It is a shame . Fx channel has a pretty good record so far of airing quality drama shows

Anyone got the ratings from last night? I haven't seen them anywhere.

You can't really compare Lightsout to terriers yet since that show just kept going lower and lower in the ratings. I think the season finale got something like 750k live which is horrible for a season finale.
