‘Bookie’ Renewed At Max For Season 2
deadline.comThe sports book is reopening after Max renewed Bookie, starring Sebastian Maniscalco, for a second season. The renewal comes two weeks after the season one finale of the show, which comes from Chuck Lorre and Nick Bakay.
The series, which premiered on November 30, follows Maniscalco bookie Danny as he and his partner, former NFL star Ray, played by Omar Dorsey, romp around Los Angeles trying to keep their illegal sports betting operation in play.
Season two will presumably show whether Ray [SPOILER ALERT] can win back the affections of his wife Sandra, played by Andrea Anders, after his Super Bowl win seems to have torn them apart, as well as Ray dealing with the fallout of his mother’s wedding, which saw the groom seemingly die at the alter.
Produced by Warner Bros. Television, Bookie also stars Vanessa Ferlito as Ray’s side-hustling sister Lorraine and Jorge Garcia as reluctantly reformed drug dealer turned soccer expert Hector as well as Maxim Swinton as Sandra’s ten year old son.
