The comedy series 'Bookie', created by Chuck Lorre and Nick Bakay, has been renewed for a second season by Max.
The series stars Sebastian Maniscalco as Danny, an L.A. bookie trying to keep his job amid the possible legalization of sports gambling in California.
The first season finale debuted on Max on Dec. 21, and the series has been praised for its hilarious ride into the underbelly of illegal sports gambling.
The show made headlines for reuniting Lorre with his former 'Two and a Half Men' star Charlie Sheen, who guests as himself in both the premiere and season one finale.
Season 2 is expected to continue the story of Danny trying to win back the affections of his wife Sandra, played by Andrea Anders, and dealing with the fallout of his mother’s wedding.
