“We knew we’d like to work in that format,” co-creator Sam Means told NBC Insider. “It gives you so many different tools for storytelling, and different kinds of jokes, and just a whole different way of doing a TV show that we really enjoyed. And watching all these sports documentaries of athletes looking back on their lives, that’s a whole different language that we can now embrace and play with
The season has been a rollercoaster of laughs thanks to the show’s incredible cast and lineup of guest stars — Megan Thee Stallion’s episode was particularly can’t-miss!
Here’s what to expect from the Reggie Dinkins season finale
The season finale begins with “Mischief and Memories,” with the official logline: The Dinkins family bands together for their annual push to get Reggie into the hall of fame, but Jerry Basmati stands in their way.
The second half of the finale — airing directly after at 8:30 p.m. ET — is titled “A Real Cinderello Story.” The official logline sets up the episode for fans perfectly:
Monica (Erika Alexander) attempts to sign a promising new prospect while navigating a competitive environment, and Jerry Basmati (Craig Robinson) seeks revenge on Reggie.
Any time Robinson reprises his role as Dinkins’ former football arch-rival guarantees countless laugh-out-loud moments — so we’re expecting more great things from the former Office star in his return to the Reggie Dinkins universe.
