While FX has several hot new properties in development, our most anticipated is 'Homeland' producer Howard Gordon's upcoming Middle Eastern drama 'Tyrant,' which was scheduled to have a pilot directed by 'Life of Pi' Oscar winner Ang Lee. Now, Lee has reportedly backed out of the project, but what does it say of 'Tyrant's future going forward?
We've been so busy covering the major (and ongoing) network TV stories of the past week that we almost didn't notice one of the more bizarre and intriguing nuggets of news to come out of 'It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia's upcoming ninth season. Specifically, it appears that 'Game of Thrones' showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss plucked their pens out of Westeros long enough to write an upcoming episode! Will Dee go from bird to Mother of Dragons? Find out inside!
We haven't seen very much from FX's summer offering 'The Bridge,' adapting the Danish/Swedish drama of the same name, apart from the eerie 'No Country For Old Men'-style teasers.

Let 'Sons of Anarchy' and 'Justified's 'Deadwood' arms race continue! While we sift through the flurry of network announcements in recent days, 'Sons of Anarchy' season 6 has added a major new recurring role to its cast. Former 'Deadwood' star Kim Dickens will cross more than paths with Jax and Nero in the new season, but what will have SAMCRO brought to its knees by the new recurring role?
While there's no telling how different 'Wilfred' season 3 could feel now that showrunner David Zuckerman has left the series, we're eagerly awaiting the latest demented misadventures of Ryan and his imaginary pal. FX has officially set a June 20 premiere date with back to back episodes, and a number of new guest stars, so what other bones will FX throw 'Wilfred' fans this year?
FX has had a difficult time getting animated comedies off the ground apart from 'Archer,' as their most recent effort 'Unsupervised' floundered in both ratings and reviews, but their latest project should have none of those troubles. 'This is the End' funnyman Seth Rogen has partnered with FX and Evan Goldberg to bring to life an animated comedy based on the works of Graham Roumieu's faux autobiographical Bigfoot book 'In Me Own Words, Me Write Book,' but will FX capture that ever-elusive animated success?
Just yesterday we were wondering what had become of FX's Guillermo del Toro-helmed pilot 'The Strain,' after HBO announced their own del Toro project 'Monster,' and now we have our answer. 'House of Cards' breakout Corey Stoll has been tapped as the lead in the project, but will the vampire series move forward beyond its pilot order? Hear what FX has to say about a live-action 'The Strain' inside!
There has been an impressive amount of breaking news from FX's Upfront presentation in New York today, the biggest of which being that the cable network will spin off into a new channel FXX in September, but the hits keep on coming.

Find out more about the 'Fargo' TV series inside!
Only one week removed from the 'American Horror Story: Asylum' season finale "Madness Ends," and we're still no closer to understanding just what those mysterious aliens were trying to accomplish, but that hasn't stopped us from looking forward to the "glamourous evil romance" of season 3! Following her acclaimed turn as simple nun turned-posessed deviant Sister Mary Eunice, Lily Rabe has been confirmed to join her 'Horror Story' alum for season 3. Get the latest on the next 'American Horror Story' inside!
'American Horror Story: Asylum' may have come and gone following season finale "Madness Ends," but that hasn't stopped fans of the FX horror series from obsessing on one lingering point: just what was up with the mysterious aliens permeating the season? Not only did the science-fiction creatures remain unexplained, seeming oddly out of place with a season that chronicled religion, madness and mutilation, but the beings were never fully glimpsed on screen. However, new concept art reveals the full extent of the seemingly benevolent creatures' design, so get a look at the 'American Horror Story: Asylum' extraterrestrials inside!
We'll have to wait until tonight's season finale to find out exactly how 'American Horror Story: Asylum's "Madness Ends," but that hasn't stopped series creator and show-runner Ryan Murphy from moving full-steam ahead with season 3. Where series staples Jessica Lange, Evan Peters and Sarah Paulson have all been confirmed to return, now we've learned that season 1 breakout star Taissa Farmiga is in talks to headline the upcoming third season as well! Find out who she'll play in 'American Horror Story' season 3 inside!
