Sebastian Maniscalco & Chuck Lorre's acclaimed Max comedy series, Bookie, premiered nearly a year ago & and nabbed a quick second season renewal last Fall. And today, we have a trailer & first look at the darkly funny comedy's anticipated second season, check it out above!
In the season 2 return of Bookie, we pick up with "veteran Los Angeles bookie Danny (Sebastian Maniscalco) as the potential legalization of sports gambling in California threatens to upend his business for good. Alongside best friend and former NFL player Ray (Omar J. Dorsey), side-hustling sister Lorraine (Vanessa Ferlito), and reluctantly reformed drug dealer Hector (Jorge Garcia), Danny must contend with his increasingly unstable clients as he tries to settle their debts – all while making plenty of risky bets of his own. Full of relatable mishaps, Bookie chronicles one man’s journey to adapt to an ever-changing world as he attempts to charm and con his way to the top."
In addition to Maniscalco, Dorsey, Ferlito & Garcia, the show's main cast this season includes Andrea Anders, Maxim Swinton and Rob Corddry. Guest stars this season will include the return of Lorre's Two And A Half Men collaborator & star Charlie Sheen as well as Ray Romano, Zach Braff, and Brad Garrett.
Bookie is created, written, and produced by Lorre and Nick Bakay with Maniscalco, Judi Marmel, & Andy Tennant serving as executive producers.
