It is being reported that The Exorcist has been renewed by Fox for a second season. The novel-based drama premiered last September with a 10-episode run, which is shorter than the typical length of fall series. While a little soft in the ratings, the series found a consistent audience on Friday nights.
Based on the 1971 novel of the same name, The Exorcist follows two very different priests - Father Tomas Ortega, who is the new face of the Catholic Church, and Father Marcus Brennan, a modern-day Templar Knight raised by the Vatican since childhood. Caught in the middle is the Rance family, who are members of Father Tomas' parish. With a demonic presence in their house appearing to grow stronger each day, they appeal to Father Tomas for help, which sets the naïve priest on a collision course with Father Marcus.

Please go into this season with the idea that there will not be a Season 3. So this is what you do---you write the first 4 episodes to set up the Second season. Then you figure out how you want it to end and shot the last three episodes giving the series a finale. I'm think that you are going to get about 13 episodes here--so then shoot those middle 6 episodes building toward the end bridging the gap.

Nina, I enjoyed Sleepy Hollow for its initial season but the fans are extremely lucky they got what they got. The show was saved by Fox again & again even with very poor ratings!

Absolutely excited for the renewal. Most source predicted that it has high chance to be canceled due to the low rating. But I'm so glad that FOX recognized its potential. Fantastic plots and casts overall.

Good news. I really enjoyed the 1st season. I didn't have high hopes for it after the first couple of episodes, but I gave it a chance to grow and I'm glad I did. I was presently surprised with the season as a whole and am intrigued about a second one.
