Donald Glover is one of the most creative people working in modern Hollywood, moving between television and film while also being an accomplished stand-up comedian and musician.

Created by Kurt Sutter and Elgin James, and spawned from the same fictional universe as “Sons of Anarchy,” dealing with the Sons’ rivals-turned-allies, “Mayans M.C.” has really come into its own in recent years and even changed its tone in recent years as Elgin James has taken over as sole showrunner.

On March 1, it will be exactly four years since season 2 of Donald Glover’s critical smash-hit “Atlanta” premiered on FX. Obviously, a lot’s gone on in the world since the series’s popularity soared, so it’s entirely possible that some fans may have moved on from the show.

Television is big business for both traditional cable networks and streaming services alike. In the case of FX, the cable television channel has shows airing on linear television and streaming.

The upcoming third season of FX’s popular “Atlanta” series, due March 2022, was written in early 2019, but the show almost came to a close at the end of season two, creator/star/writer/exec Donald Glover recently revealed at the FX Winter Television Critics Association (TCA) tour (via Variety).

Earlier today, it was announced that Noah Hawley is set to do a fifth season of “Fargo.” In fact, that is going to be the next series that he works on. So, what does that mean for his in-development “Alien” series? Well, according to FX, it’s still coming and is going to be pretty great.

At the end of Season 2 of “Atlanta,” it seemed as if the FX series was riding a huge wave of goodwill, with incredible reviews, great ratings, and tons of awards. But it’s been almost exactly four years since Season 2 debuted and you have to wonder how much of that momentum is gone?

How do you end a beloved series? How do you make sure you don’t overstay your welcome?
