Hank Azaria and Amanda Peet co-star in "Brockmire," a half-hour comedy series that began years ago as a viral short video on the Funny or Die website. The series centers on the fall of Jim Brockmire, a once-famed major league baseball announcer who suffers an embarrassing on-air meltdown caused by his wife's serial infidelity, leading to a decade away from the booth. Older and presumably wiser, Brockmire attempts to reclaim his career, reputation and love life by returning behind the mic, but the setting -- a broken-down rust belt town, home of the minor league's Morristown Frackers -- is not quite what he envisioned. Strong-willed, hard-drinking owner Julia James has a complicated relationship with Brockmire, while whiz-kid intern Charles is simultaneously entertained by and terrified of the new announcer.

Critics Consensus

Brockmire's second season rounds out all of the bases with scathing wit and scandalous aplomb before reaching home plate for a poignant finish, making full use of Hank Azaria's talent as a comedian and dramatic actor.

The emotional balance of the season is very different, even though it's leading somewhere rewarding and meaningful by the end.

Brockmire puts the weight in all the right places, featuring what lies beneath the exterior, particularly of those plaid jackets Jim Brockmire loves to wear-right where his faded, jaded heart beats chaotically.

Brockmire remains one of the filthiest shows on television - but in a gleeful, sincere way, not in a mopey or morose way.

While "Brockmire" may be one of the most leud shows on television, it's a fun and hysterical ride.

Best of the Best. Never laughed harder and darn near cried. It’s the very adult version of Ted Lasso. Absolutely amazing writing and cast. I needed this badly. This country sucks right now and this show has given me hope.

Improved on an already strong season 1!

Goes from hilarious but a tiny bit erratic is season 1 to art in season 2.

Brockmire hits its stride and it's so baseball. People think it's a parody lol.

Thought the 1st season was great, 2nd was just as good and sometimes even better.
