Apple TV’s ‘Stick’ Season 2 Release Schedule, Cast and Trailer
Apple TV has locked in the return of its golf comedy, and the second season of ‘Stick’ now has a clear path to the screen. The premiere lands on Wednesday, November 4, with two episodes available on opening day. One episode follows each Wednesday until the finale arrives on December 30. For a series that spent months without a confirmed date, the picture is now unusually complete.
With the trailer out and a notable newcomer joining the ensemble, ‘Stick’ returns with plenty to examine before launch. This piece looks at the release plan, the returning and new cast, the story setup, and the early critical response to the second season.
Release Schedule and Episode Rollout
The second season contains ten episodes, and Apple TV has chosen a staggered rollout instead of releasing the entire season at once. That structure keeps the show on the service through the end of the year, since the weekly drops run all the way to the final Wednesday in December.
The timeline has moved quickly. In late May, showrunner Jason Keller said filming was finished and that he was deep in post production. Keller told Deadline, “We’re done with production.” He also said he hoped the show would arrive sooner rather than later, and the November date followed a few months afterward.
The renewal itself came early. Apple announced it in July 2025, timed to the finale of the first season. The premiere date has been public since August. One practical note for viewers abroad, Apple has not published a universal release time, so local timing can fall on a different calendar day depending on region.
Returning Cast and New Faces
The core group is intact. Owen Wilson returns as Pryce Cahill alongside Peter Dager as Santi, Marc Maron as Mitts, Mariana Treviño as Elena, Lilli Kay as Zero, Judy Greer as Amber-Linn and Timothy Olyphant as Clark Ross. That continuity matters for a comedy built on the chemistry between a washed up pro and the young talent he mentors.
The headline addition is Rhea Seehorn. She joins as golf instructor Amanda, and other newcomers include John Higgins, Billy Zane, Rex Linn, Sasha Alexander and Missi Pyle. Seehorn is best known for playing attorney Kim Wexler in ‘Better Call Saul’, and she has won her first Emmy since the casting was announced.
The golf world gets its own representation as well. Broadcasters Jim Nantz and Trevor Immelman return for guest appearances, as does golf enthusiast Dan Rapaport. Those cameos give the series a grounded connection to the sport it portrays, which helps the comedy feel lived in rather than staged.
Trailer and Story Setup
Apple TV released the trailer for the second season on October 8. It centers on Pryce attempting a comeback that nobody expected. Before that, a short clip introduced Amanda stepping out of a car while Pryce looks on in awe.
Apple’s official summary lays out two parallel tracks. Santi takes the next step toward professional golf and discovers how quickly the game changes once talent becomes expectation. Meanwhile Pryce, urged on by former rival Clark Ross, bets on himself and tries to become the oldest golfer ever to win a major.
The emotional stakes sit with Pryce. The closer he gets to the golfer he once was, the more he must confront why he never fulfilled the promise everyone saw in him. He pursues that goal with Amanda as his coach and Mitts as his trusted caddie.
Early Reviews and Where to Catch Up
Early reception leans warm. FandomWire describes the new season as a crowd pleaser about redemption and second chances. The review credits the ensemble chemistry, and it calls Seehorn the most welcome addition to the cast.
The same review points to a structural change that deepens the material. Pryce pursues his own ambitions while still guiding Santi, who is weighing whether to keep playing golf or accept a college scholarship. That balance between mentor and student gives the story two engines instead of one.
Anyone new to the series has time to catch up. The first season is available to stream on Apple TV now. It wrapped with strong critical reception and a quick renewal. With Pryce chasing a record as the oldest major winner while Santi weighs golf against a scholarship, which storyline do you hope the weekly episodes lean into more, and does Amanda’s arrival make his comeback believable to you?
