The fate of another critically acclaimed but ratings-challenged drama series may once again rest in the hands of DirecTV.

Multiple sources confirm to me exclusively that Sony is talking to DirecTV’s The 101 Network about partnering on a possible fourth season of Damages. The cost-sharing arrangement would be similar to the one DirecTV and NBC forged with Friday Night Lights, which means future seasons of Damages would air first on DirecTV with a second window on FX.

An insider close to the talks says Sony reached out to DirecTV last month after it became clear that, for financial reasons, FX could no longer keep Damages afloat on its own. “DirecTV is one of several outlets that have been approached,” says a source. “All options are on the table.”

Reps for FX and Sony declined to comment.
