Recent years have been a struggle for network TV comedies, with seemingly fewer than ever, both on the new and returning side, to compete with an endless number of streaming options. The silver lining, at least, is that the majority of the 30-minute time slots on the 2026 TV schedule are filled with top-tier efforts, from St. Denis Medical to Ghosts to — [cue Daniel Radcliffe miming a happy trombone] — The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins. Tracy Morgan’s latest is already among his greatest, critically speaking, and it’s thankfully gaining an attentive audience.For those still unaware, Reggie Dinkins stars Morgan as a former athlete whose career scandalously imploded, making life more difficult for his agent and ex-wife Monica (Erika Alexander) and his luxury-loving son Carmelo (Jalyn Hall). In steps documentary filmmaker Arthur Tobin (Daniel Radcliffe) to bring Reggie back to his former glory, despite having his own fall from grace (that involves a great on-screen meltdown from Radcliffe). Also, Bobby Moynihan is in the mix and is absolutely amazing. Everyone should be watching this thing, and it looks like a lot of people are, so let’s talk about it.
