Showtime is pairing up its two breakout hits from 2013.
The network announced today that Masters of Sex and Ray Donovan will both kick off their seconds seasons on Sunday, July 13 beginning at 9/8c.
Last year, Ray Donovan became the first Showtime series to average over five million viewers per week, while Masters of Sex was named as one of AFI’s Top Ten Television Programs of the Year.
Both have already announced some pretty big casting scoops for their new seasons ahead:
- Betsy Brandt will recur on Masters of Sex as Dr. Masters' new secretary.
- Wendell Pierce is on board Ray Donovan as a parole officer who receives a payoff from the title character.
