Episoden-Guide

1. Staffel 1 (6 Episoden)
Als aufstrebender Baseball-Star hat Kenny Powers alles erreicht: Reichtum, Ruhm und Beliebtheit. Doch im Dunst von Jubel, Trubel und Selbstgefälligkeit hat er auch alles wieder verloren. Dumm ist nur: Kenny weiß gar nicht, dass er es nicht mehr bringt. In Staffel 1 dieser köstlich subversiven Komödienserie spielt Danny McBride den ehemals feurigen Pitcher, der sich nach seiner Baseball-Karriere als Sportlehrer an seiner alten Schule in North Carolina wiederfindet. Während er sowohl an der Schule als auch im Haus seines Bruders Dustin (John Hawkes) einen Schaden nach dem anderen anrichtet, plant der flegelhafte und unflätige Kenny sein Comeback in der Profiliga ... und versucht seine ehemalige High-School-Liebe April (Katy Mixon) zurückzuerobern, die jetzt als Lehrerin mit Rektor Terrence Cutler (Andrew Daly) verlobt ist.
