NBC Renews The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins for Season Two


The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins hasn't fallen yet. NBC has renewed the Tracy Morgan-led freshman sitcom for a second season of ten episodes, the same episode count as its first season. Reggie Dinkins was NBC's highest-rated series in the key 18-49 demo, with a 0.38 average, though that was heavily inflated by a post-NFL premiere. Without the NFL lead-in, it averaged 0.27 in the demo, knocking the show down to seventh among NBC's scripted programming - still above comedy Happy's Place, the lowest-rated scripted series to earn a renewal on NBC so far this season. The renewal comes less than a week after the cancellation of Stumble, NBC's other freshman sitcom from this season, which boasted a significantly lower 0.17 average. Reggie Dinkins comes from a creative team that includes creator Robert Carlock and executive producer Tina Fey, who have lengthy working relationships with NBC. Daniel Radcliffe, Erika Alexander, Precious Way, Bobby Moynihan, and Jalyn Hall star alongside Morgan in the series. This is a correct prediction for The TV Ratings Guide.

The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins Ordered to Series by NBC

NBC has made their first scripted series order of the 2025-26 season, ordering comedy pilot The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins to series. The project is produced by Tina Fey and reunites her with her SNL and 30 Rock co-star Tracy Morgan, who will star in the series. The series follows a disgraced former football player who tries to rehabilitate his image, and also features a high-profile cast that includes Daniel Radcliffe, fellow SNL-er Bobby Moynihan, Erika Alexander, Precious Way and Jalyn Hall. The first season is expected to have a ten-episode order. Two other NBC comedy pilots remain in contention for next season, but have not yet filmed, including a cheerleading comedy from the creator of Trial & Error.
