In Stick's season 2 trailer, Owen Wilson's failed golfer takes a big swing on himself

Naturally, the creaky former wunderkind needs some help (apart from loyal caddy Marc Maron) to get his swing back, with new series regular Rhea Seahorn taking time off from saving the world from an insidious hive mind to shake off some of Cahill’s rust. As Wilson’s onetime golf phenom says of his abruptly derailed career, “I read the [internet] comments once, and it said, ‘Pryce Cahill is the Amelia Earhart of golf—he took off with great expectations then suddenly disappeared over a water hazard.'” 

With the same blend of sports shenanigans and what The A.V. Club‘s Brian Tallerico called Apple TV+’s signature brand of “middle-aged guys overcoming life’s trauma to be better versions of themselves” sentimentality, Stick looks to ace the sort of comfortable dad uplift the streamer’s Ted Lasso and Shrinking have been delivering. 

Stick‘s second season premieres on Apple TV+ on November 4.
