Close out your February with an excellent selection of Channel Surfing TV picks. A disgraced former NFL player looks to redeem himself in The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins. Paradise begins its second season. Then, Kong enters the fray in a new season of Monarch: Legacy of Monsters.
A Path to Redemption
The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins finds the titular character as a pariah within NFL circles. He was found gambling on his own games while still an active player. Years later, he hopes that a documentary on his life from an award winning director will help rehabilitate his image enough to make it into the Hall of Fame.
The series stars Tracy Morgan, Daniel Radcliffe, Erika Alexander, Bobby Moynihan, Precious Way, and Jalyn Hall. Robert Carlock and Sam Means are co-showrunners, writers, and executive producers. Tina Fey, Eric Gurian, David Miner, and Morgan also serve executive produce.
The one hour The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins premiere event airs today, February 23, on NBC.
Life on the Surface
When we last left Paradise, things have shaken up the usually quiet community. There is a current leadership void that the vice president hopes to fill while the former president’s son tries to gather supporters. Elsewhere, Xavier escaped trying to find his wife.
In the new season, Xavier continues his search for his wife, and in the process, discovers how the not so fortunate managed to survive the past three years. Meanwhile, the community still wrestles with the aftermath following the dramatic developments from the season one finale. As we dive deeper into the city’s origins, more secrets will be revealed.
Paradise season two premieres today, February 23, on Hulu.
