Launching for Sky viewers at 8pm on January 12, FX will have a lineup targeted at "the Adultman," a market which the channel believes is presently under catered for.
As previously reported, The X Files takes the prime 8pm slot every day, whilst NYPD Blue follows at 9pm. The post-10pm slot is filled with a mixture of UK premieres such as The Man Show, Drive Shaft and Trash to Cash and critically acclaimed series like The Shield.
Movies will air weekends at 9pm; confirmed films for the launch month include Desperado, Honeymoon in Vegas and Malice.
The daytime schedule includes mainly classic series - Lost in Space, Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea, Highlander and Batman are all featured.
Cops will take a daily slot at 7pm, with a six-hour back-to-back block airing Saturdays at 2pm.
