Ryan Hansen is back to solving crimes on television, and so are a ton of his famous friends — whether they like it (or even know it) or not.
In Season 2, which got a trailer on Monday, Ryan’s back — but he’s with a brand new partner. After Mathers (Samira Wiley) was shot and put into a medically induced coma, tough-guy Vince Vincent (Wood Harris) stepped up to the plate to be the real cop to Hansen’s very not-real one. Together, the two must solve an array of puzzling crimes, all while trying to find Mathers’ shooter, per YouTube’s description.
And yes, the show’s running joke against the platform itself continues for its sophomore run.

Pilot orders from six cable networks — including VH1, BBC America,...
