Netflix has officially revealed the launch date for the second series of Running Point, according to multiple reports. The comedy series will return on Thursday, 23rd April.
Running Point is a smash-hit comedy that became Netflix's top show during its inaugural week of release last February. The series stars Kate Hudson as Isla Gordon, who becomes the first female president of the fictional NBA franchise the Los Angeles Waves. The show is loosely inspired by the real-life basketball legend Jeanie Buss, former owner of the LA Lakers.
With the head coach spot wide open, a heartbreaking late-season loss in the recent rearview, and Isla's most unstable brother back in the mix, the new season of Running Point promises to be another hilarious, compulsively watchable chapter.
The series co-stars Scott MacArthur, Brenda Song, Chet Hanks, and Justin Theroux. New cast members for series two include Ray Romano, Ken Marino, Tommy Dewey, Richa Moorjani, Jake Picking, Blake Anderson, Duby Maduegbunam, and Aliyah Turner.
A synopsis released by Tudum, Netflix's official publication, reveals the new season involves a head coach spot open, a heartbreaking late-season loss, and Isla's most unstable brother back in the mix. According to Tudum, the new season promises to be another hilarious, compulsively watchable chapter.
Several details remain unknown, including the exact number of episodes in series two, critical reception or reviews, whether the show has been renewed for a third series, and viewership numbers or ratings for series one. The plot beyond the synopsis has not been disclosed.
