FX Fall Premiere Dates: Sons of Anarchy, It's Always Sunny Return

SOA returns Sept. 8 at 10 p.m.; It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia is due back Sept. 17

FX Network has announced premiere dates for the return of two fan faves (Sons of Anarchy and It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia), as well as an unexpected early return for groundbreaking veteran Nip/Tuck.

Got your calendars open? Here are the dates:

Sons of Anarchy returns for season two Tuesday, Sept. 8 at 10 p.m. The Harley mafia drama moves to a new night as Sam Crow faces down new adversaries, including a clutch of white supremacists (played by Adam Arkin and Henry Rollins), as well as old adversaries like the ATF and rival clubs. Ally Walker and Mitch Pileggi will return as guest stars for round two, but Drea de Matteo, who plays Jax's baby-mama Wendy, is moving out of Charming for the season and on to Desperate Housewives' Wisteria Lane.

It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia also returns this fall. Season five of Sunny is set to premiere Thursday, Sept. 17 at 10 p.m., and Ryan Murphy's Nip/Tuck has a second-to-last season of 10 eps due to premiere in October—exact day and time to be determined. (Nip/Tuck wasn't originally expected to return until 2010.)
