Chapter 7

Season Two Premiere. After settling a score with the baseball exec who screwed him out of a big-league comeback, Kenny Powers heads to Mexico to lick his wounds and start a new, more anonymous life. Living in a dingy apartment in Jalisco under an alias--Stevie Janowski, the fawning NC music teacher whose credit card he's been using--Kenny's nascent career in cockfighting ends when his 'Big Red' bird goes down, and his two local sidekicks, Aaron and Hector, take off with his assets. Befriended by a neighboring Mexican family and a sultry bar singer named Vida, Kenny emerges from 'the darkest hole I've ever been in' by announcing he'll make a baseball comeback with a hapless local team, the Chaross. But do the Chaross and their manager, Roger Hernandez, have room on the roster for a self-centered, out-of-shape flame thrower?

Critic Reviews for Eastbound & Down: Season 2

Changing the setting of the show completely is a bold move and exposes the deep ruts of most shows currently on television.

I may be a season late to the Eastbound and Down party - but I'm glad I accepted the invitation to join this show's funky second-season journey.
