TVLine Items: Killing It Season 2 Trailer, Flash Vet to Drag Race and More

Craig Robinson is Killing It —  or at least trying to —  as he takes on a “creepy swamp family” in a trailer for Season 2 of the Peacock comedy.

The series, from Brooklyn Nine-Nine duo Dan Goor and Luke Del Tredici, is described as “a comedy about class, capitalism, and one man’s quest to achieve the American Dream. But first he has to overcome vicious criminals, nature run wild, and worst of all, corporate America,” per the official synopsis.

Premiering with all eight episodes on Thursday, Aug. 17, Season 2 is “the same wild rollercoaster as last year — an ambitious, complex exploration of life and pursuit of the American Dream mixed in with some of the stupidest jokes on television,” star/EP Robinson said in a pre-strike statement. “We got so many amazing guest stars this season, while returning all our old favorites. Except for the snakes. There are many less snakes this year. But don’t worry, there’s plenty more hurdles to jump through, like deadly snails.”
