Trial & Error Season 2 arrived without much fanfare and built its audience the hard way — through word of mouth. Trial & Error Season 2 gets the fundamentals right first, then finds room to get weird with it. The second season centers on bright-eyed New York lawyer Josh Segal, still relatively a newcomer in a tiny southern town, who is sturdily posed for his next big case there. His mission? To defend the eccentric first lady of East Peck, Lavinia Peck-Foster, known for her flamboyant outfits, large hats and hairless cat, and who suddenly finds herself accused of the bizarre murder of her beloved husband. Nicholas D'Agosto and Kristin Chenoweth lead a cast that brings real weight to the material. It was aired in 2018. Trial & Error Season 2 earns its laughs from character rather than situation, which is why it does not wear thin the way pure farce tends to. It knows exactly what it is, and does not try to be anything else.

Comedy fans looking for a reliably funny watch will find it in Trial & Error Season 2. It does not lean on comparisons to make its case. Best experienced as a single, sustained watch if your schedule allows. Nicholas D'Agosto's comic timing carries it through its weaker moments. The kind of comedy you recommend to someone who claims they do not watch much.
