While May’s teaser forDave’s second season didn’t actually show footage from the show but rather just a self-contained skit involving an ant-eater trying to get across the street, this new trailer showcases the feel of the second season. It seems that this time around, Lil Dicky is becoming more respected as a rapper but starting to lose his creative flow. Struggling to create new music, Lil Dicky must now navigate a life that he always dreamed of but wasn’t expecting. The trailer also depicts the rapper dealing with his pushy manager, his parents, and kids at a Bar Mitzvah.
While the first half of the first season of Dave received a mixed reaction from critics, many outlets noted that the season improved vastly as it went on. The series now has a fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes and is one of FXX’s most highly anticipated shows. While the show is already well-liked by many, the main character was highly criticized in the first season for the ungrateful way he treats his friends and how he puts fame over artistry. While nothing has been confirmed, it seems that some of the ideations featured in the show that ended up getting criticized in the past may be critiqued in the second season.
On June 16, audiences will be getting a double dose ofDavewhen the first two episodes of the second season drop. The rest of the episodes will be released weekly on FXX and FX on Hulu. Season one is currently available to stream on FX on Hulu. Check out the official trailer for season 2 below:
