Steve Carell’s Most Human Role Yet: Why “Rooster” Is Worth Watching

In this Over the Teacup Sunday episode, Michael & Diane sit down to explore Rooster, the new HBO series starring Steve Carell and created by Bill Lawrence & Matt Tarses (Ted Lasso, Shrinking, Scrubs).

They dive into the show’s warm, character‑driven storytelling, the small‑town secrets at its center, and the grounded emotional depth Carell brings to the role. With a standout ensemble cast — Danielle Deadwyler, Phil Dunster, Charly Clive, Lauren Tsai, Annie Mumolo, Madison Hu, Rory Scovel, and John C. McGinley — Rooster blends humor, heart, and mystery in a way that feels both familiar and fresh.

A cozy, thoughtful conversation about identity, reinvention, and the stories we carry with us now streamimh on Streaming on HBO.
