Bad Monkey Season Two Sets December Premiere Date
Apple TV has revealed a first look at Bad Monkey Season Two, which will continue the acclaimed comedy, starring and executive-produced by Vince Vaughn. The series comes from award-winning creator and executive producer Bill Lawrence.
Based on Carl Hiaasen’s New York Times bestselling novel and enduring cult favorite, the 10-episode sophomore season will revolve around an all-new original story and will make its global debut on Apple TV with one episode on Wednesday, December 2, 2026, followed by one new episode every Wednesday through February 3, 2027.
After Andrew Yancy (Vaughn) witnesses the murder of Florida’s finest fixer, an ambitious state attorney pairs him up with a strait-laced forensic accountant to solve the crime.
Eager to regain his detective’s badge, Yancy finds himself embroiled in a turf war between rival criminal organizations as he navigates a variety of Florida oddballs, including an erudite mob boss, his unhinged son, and a hard-edged young woman who needs Yancy’s protection.
Meanwhile, Yancy contends with his aging father; unresolved romantic tension with Dr. Rosa Campensino (Natalie Martinez), who launches her own investigation into a mysterious rash; and a bombastic animal relocation specialist whose business threatens the local environment.
Bad Monkey Season Two is led by returning stars Vince Vaughn, Natalie Martinez, Charlotte Lawrence and John Ortiz, alongside new additions John Malkovich, Yvonne Strahovski and Zavior Phillips.
Nate Jackson, Sofia Boutella, Brent Morin, Joey Avery, Dax Shepard, Sam Jaeger, Margarita Levieva, Peter Billingsley, and June Diane Raphael are guest stars.
Produced by Warner Bros. Television, Bad Monkey is developed by executive producer and showrunner Lawrence through his Doozer Productions and its overall deal with WBTV.
Jeff Ingold, Matt Tarses, Vaughn, Liza Katzer, Adam Sztykiel, Chris Downey and Carl Hiaasen are also executive producers.
Lauded as “smartly written” with “standout performances,” season one of Bad Monkey is now streaming on Apple TV.
