Season 2 opens with Spencer facing off with an old adversary, which puts his company and reputation in jeopardy. A reformed Ricky gets bad news in advance of his 30th birthday party. Charles relishes his new status as a fan favorite, but may face changes on the field.
Make no mistake, this is Johnson's baby. With that all-glowing smile, he brings his A-game to "Ballers" while always managing to look good in a suit. Heck, he even gets off a few playful shots.
There is still more backstory to explain the bad blood between Andre and Spencer that the season will likely slowly reveal, but so far, the most compelling aspect of their rivalry is the notion that Spencer's real problems might be with himself.
You expect something more antic. John David Washington, Denzel's son, is notable as a talented wide receiver whose off-season behavior has him searching for a team. After that it's hazy.
Think of Ballers as a .500 team in TV's comedy standings, which doesn't mean it's a bad show. To the contrary, what's frustrating is how it seems just a new player or two away from a winning record.
Ballers [is] the completely unfunny saga about a sports agent played by Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, where seeing NFL stars we're supposed to recognize is meant to be enough of a thrill.
At the center of it all, of course, is Johnson, transplanting his movie-star charisma to the small screen, while proving himself a more and more adept dramatic performer.
Ballers Season Two has given audiences a consistently enjoyable, yet forgettable thirty-minute block, carried mostly by the charismatic presence of Dwayne Johnson.
