Ultimately if FOX wants it back in time for the fall, filming on a second season would have to begin in April to leave enough time for the show's extensive post-production. Additionally, the search is underway for high-level writers to join current executive producers Brannon Braga and Rene Echevarria. (Deadline.com)
