NBC’s *The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins* is returning for a second season, less than two months from the article’s publication. The sitcom, which premiered in January 2026, follows a disgraced former American football star trying to rebuild his reputation, and has been praised as one of the year’s strongest comedies.

Tracy Morgan plays Reggie, who hires documentary filmmaker Arthur Tobin, played by Daniel Radcliffe, to record his attempted comeback after a gambling scandal ended his career. Reggie wants a flattering account, while Arthur has his own professional troubles and initially seeks a more honest film. The supporting cast includes Erika Alexander, Bobby Moynihan, Precious Way and Jalyn Hall; beneath its mockumentary comedy, the series centres on second chances and people trying to recover what they have lost.
