It seems like everything that Bill Lawrence creates these days is going to be a huge success, and Rooster on HBO and HBO Max is no different.
The series is set on a college campus, centering on an author’s (Carell) complicated relationship with his daughter (Charly Clive). The critical darling looks like it will be the network’s most-watched freshman comedy in over a decade, averaging around 6 million viewers in its first four episodes.
Clancy Collins White, President, Creative Affairs, Warner Bros. Television, quote: “ROOSTER is a heartfelt, endearing series, and its second-season renewal is richly deserved. Bill Lawrence and Matt Tarses are masters of their craft, bringing their signature heart and humor to life through an incredible cast led by Steve Carell. We’re thrilled to continue this creative journey with HBO and Doozer.”
I keep meaning to watch it because my friend’s daughter is in it. Now that I know it is picked up, I am so going to tune in.
The remaining six episodes for this season will continue to debut on Sundays at 10p.
