Erika Alexander, Bobby Moynihan: Everyone Wants a 2nd Chance in Tracy Morgan's 'Reggie'

The sports mockumentary blends satire and comedy to follow disgraced NFL star Reggie Dinkins seeking image rehabilitation and Hall of Fame induction.

  • On Monday, February 23, 2026, NBC premiered The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins at 8/7c, with episodes streaming the next day on Peacock in a 10-episode season.
  • Robert Carlock and Sam Means lean on their 30 Rock roots, developing the mockumentary with Tina Fey, drawing on their absurdist style and sports documentaries like The Last Dance.
  • Reggie Dinkins, a disgraced former NFL star, hires Oscar-winning documentarian Arthur Tobin to film his comeback and seek Pro Football Hall of Fame reinstatement.
  • Tom's Guide rated the season 3.5 out of 5 stars, and critics praised the Fey-Carlock style and cast’s chemistry as major assets for NBC and Peacock.
  • Framed as a comeback and reunion, future seasons could explore CTE, athlete security, and sports gambling, reviewers say, expanding on the show's themes within Feyworld.
