Pryce Cahill is done living through someone else. In season 2 of Stick, Owen Wilson’s burned-out former pro picks up his own clubs again and chases an absurd target: becoming the oldest player ever to win a golf major, according to a report on Apple’s August season announcement.
The new run opened on Apple TV on November 4, 2026 with two episodes, “Sirens in Soft Spikes” and “Don’t Be Summer Mayonnaise”. Critics have warmed to it fast. The series listing shows a 100% approval score on the main review aggregator from the first 12 critics, up from 81% across 62 reviews for the 2025 debut.
Rhea Seehorn steps in as the coach
The comeback needs a coach, and that is where Rhea Seehorn arrives. The Emmy-nominated Better Call Saul and Pluribus star plays Amanda, who takes charge of Pryce’s training while his old caddie Mitts (Marc Maron) stays on the bag, per the same report.
Timothy Olyphant’s Clark Ross, the smooth rival who was a guest in season one, is the one nudging Pryce back toward competition. Olyphant and Judy Greer, who plays Pryce’s ex-wife Amber-Linn, were both promoted to series regulars in February 2026. Olyphant has had a busy month: Badiyaa covered his turn as a TV cowboy in David Fincher’s Cliff Booth film earlier this week.
Billy Zane and John Higgins came aboard in recurring roles in March 2026. Peter Dager is back as Santi Wheeler, now pushing toward a pro career of his own, with Mariana Treviño as his mother Elena and Lilli Kay as Zero Duffy.
The remaining episode calendar
Apple has kept a weekly Wednesday drop after the double premiere:
- November 11: “Chip Off the Old Butch”
- November 18: “The Boog”
- November 25: “Go Time!”
- December 2: “Jung and the Restless”
- December 9: “Bogey Nights”
- December 16: “Fast Greens Do Not Hold”
- December 23: “Let ‘er Rip”
- December 30: untitled finale
That works out to eight weekly installments after the two-episode launch, the same 10-episode count as season one. Creator Jason Keller co-wrote the finale with Ryan Hooper, and Wilson again serves as an executive producer.
Why the comeback plot lands
Season one cast Pryce purely as a fixer. He sold the family home, paid Elena $100,000 so her teenage son could tour, and spent 10 episodes steering an RV and a moody prodigy toward the fictional ReadySafe Invitational, where tour regulars such as Collin Morikawa and Max Homa played themselves. Grief sat under the jokes: Pryce’s young son Jett died of cancer, and one episode imagined the boy at 7, 13 and 18.
Flipping the story so that Pryce becomes the athlete again gives Wilson’s laid-back charm something to push against, and it lets Santi stand on his own. Real golf supplies a useful yardstick: Phil Mickelson set the record for the oldest major champion when he won the 2021 PGA Championship at 50.
Apple’s family slate is busy too, with a Fraggle Rock holiday special arriving December 4. For Pryce, the next stop is “The Boog” on Wednesday, November 18.
