Running Point – season 2

Just as hilarious as season 1. One of the best comedies of the year.

Great cast.

Brenda Song (Ali Lee) is one of my favourites.

I love the name dropping & pop culture references. Had to Google … “the ick“, for example.

One down side ➙ the basketball scenes are embarrassing. They should have brought in more tall actors and more who can actually play high level ball.

Picking up after the events of the first season, Isla (played by Kate Hudson) is now a recognized leader under high scrutiny.

The main conflict centers on the return of her brother, Cam Gordon (Justin Theroux), who recently left rehab and begins working behind the scenes to undermine Isla and reclaim his old position as president. 

Key storylines in the second season include:

  • The Search for a New Coach: Following a late-season loss, the head coach position for the LA Waves is open.
  • Sibling Dynamics: Isla faces continuous pressure from her brothers—Cam, Ness, Sandy, and Jackie—who often challenge her authority with their own ideas.
  • On-Court Chaos: The team deals with locker room drama, including a conflict between players Marcus Winfield and Travis Bugg over a romantic interest.
  • Team Rivalries: The LA Waves face off against a Boston team led by Isla’s former colleague, Jay Brown, and briefly lose a key player to a Canadian rival
