FX renews ‘The League’ for season 5

A few hours before “The League” concludes its fourth season, FX has renewed the comedy for a fifth.

“The League is flat-out one of the funniest shows on television,” FX VP of original programming Nick Grad said in a statement. “Co-creators Jeff and Jackie Schaffer have such a perfect take on the material and the show has an amazingly talented ensemble cast of stars. Another season was an easy decision and we hope to have it on our schedule for many more years to come.”

The fourth season of the series about a group of friends and family competing in a fantasy football league concludes with back to back episodes tonight at 10:30 and 11. I’m actually way behind on this season (as I am with “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia,” which was already renewed for next year as part of an older deal), but look forward to catching up soon. For those more current than me, how have you found season 4?
