Created and directed by "Super Size Me" filmmaker Morgan Spurlock, who also serves as the show's host, the series conducts monthlong social experiments, such as following a Christian living as a Muslim and having a conservative heterosexual room with a gay man.
Spurlock himself was the series' first subject, as he and his fiancee attempted to live for a month on minimum wage in Ohio.
FX said Tuesday the hourlong show has been the network's highest-rated, unscripted series to date.
"Our first season tackled some of the most important hot-button issues in our country, and I look forward to exploring more compelling issues next season," Spurlock said in a statement.
