Outsource.

Damages producer Sony Entertainment is in talks with DirecTV to co-finance a potential fourth season. EW reports that with the third season ending on April 19th, and the pricetag of the show fairly high thanks to the heavy-hitting talent that toplines it, there aren’t too many options left to keep the show afloat.

‘Damages’ for Olyphant
