The second and final season of HBO’s adult comedy series Vice Principals continues with five new episodes in October 2017. The half-hour comedy stars Danny McBride and Walton Goggins with support from Kimberly Hébert Gregory as Dr. Belinda Brown, Georgia King as Amanda Snodgrass, Busy Phillips as Gale, Shea Whigham as Ray, Sheaun McKinney as Dayshawn, and Dale Dickey as Nash.

Vice Principals was created by Danny McBride and Jody Hill. McBride, Hill, David Gordon Green, Stephanie Laing, and Jonathan Watson executive produce.

The Plot: When the longtime principal of a suburban high school steps down, ambitious vice principals Neal Gamby and Lee Russell both set their sights on the vacated top spot – only to see new rival Dr. Belinda Brown enter the picture. Putting their mutual disdain aside, these bitter antagonists form an unholy alliance to bring down the outsider by any means necessary.
