Hell on Wheels is one of AMC's more low-profile dramas—it's not Mad Men or Breaking Bad—but it's actually pretty good. The cable network announced this weekend it has renewed the Western for a fifth season, which will be its last. Similar to its aforementioned hits, the final 14 episodes will be split into two parts.
The series focuses on the construction of the First Transcontinental Railroad in the 1860s and stars Anson Mount, Colm Meaney, Common and Dominique McElligott. The fourth season wraps up later this month, so you can expect season five in 2015 and 2016.
