"Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll" has been renewed for a second season, FX announces on Wednesday, September 23. The musical comedy is starring Denis Leary as legendary English Rock 'n' Roll singer and performer Ian Dury of Ian Dury and the Blockheads.

In their announcement, Eric Schrier and Nick Grad, Presidents of Original Programming, FX Networks and FX Productions say the half-hour series will return with 10 new episodes next year. "We are thrilled with 'Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll' and it proved to be one of the highest-rated new comedies on cable this year," Schrier says. "We thank Denis and the rest of the cast, along with Jim Serpico and Tom Sellitti, for a terrific first season and look forward to indulging in more 'Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll' in season two."

Leary adds, "The only thing that could make me happier about this announcement is if David Bowie decided to be a guest star during Season Two. In which case, my head would explode. Hopefully on-camera so we get a kickass viral video out of it. Not to mention awesome Live+3s. I look forward to once again creating new episodes of television with John Landgraf's exceptional FX team. And scoring some cool 'Bastard Executioner' swag."

Beside starring, Leary also created, wrote, directed and composed for the series. He also served as an executive producer along with Jim Serpico. The first season began in July this year and ended on September 17.
