FX Boss John Landgraf Explains Delays for ‘Atlanta,’ ‘AHS,’ ‘American Crime Story’

Don’t worry, you are going to see all your favorite FX shows, network boss John Landgraf says.

Landgraf came to the Television Critics Association press tour on Thursday to talk about the continuation of the “peak TV” trend he helped identify and also explain some lengthy hiatuses for shows such as the Golden Globe-winning “Atlanta,” which was a sensation in its freshman year last fall but won’t return for season 2 until 2018.

Fans are also going to get the two promised additional installments of the miniseries “American Crime Story,” which broke through to massive acclaim with its first effort, “The People v. O.J. Simpson.”

[...] Landgraf added that he may have been short-sighted about the turnaround of “peak TV,” the programming gold rush that has led cable and streaming networks to ramp up production.

Landgraf paid special tribute to “AHS” writer-producer Ryan Murphy, who has become one of FX’s most important collaborators (he’s also behind “Feud,” the Joan Crawford-Bette Davis drama starring Jessica Lange and Susan Sarandon).
