The Hawk (PILOT)

This year’s golf comedy doesn’t star Owen Wilson, but it does star his Frat Pack brother, Will Ferrell, and his actual brother, Luke Wilson. If you watched Happy Gilmore 2 on Netflix and kept your subscription, you should be able to tune in to The Hawk. The first episode follows Lonnie Hawkins (Ferrell) as he desperately tries to win the final major he needs to complete a career Grand Slam. Between proving he still has the talent, facing off against old rivals, and dealing with his son Lance, a promising successor who may soon surpass his father in both talent and accolades, Lonnie has his work cut out for him. On the podcast, we discuss the best and worst moments of the 30-minute pilot, how it compares with this year’s other scripted comedies, and how realistically Phoenix looks in the background. Welcome to Today’s Episode!
