Playing House, Season 2 is almost here! Let’s celebrate this show home to USA Network.

WARNING: CONTAINS SPOILERS … but just deal with it and read on.

You still have time to binge-watch USA Network’s comedy Playing House, which airs Tuesday, August 4. Well, you don’t have a lot of time, so maybe you’re in a need of a “mental health” day and this show is sure to do the trick. To fans of this show, yes, USA Network FINALLY made the decision to renew it – seriously what took so long? You renew Chrisley Knows Best in a hot second and leave the fans of this show hanging for months. Playing House is everything audiences need in a show right now. Don’t get me wrong, I love the psychological thrillers, the supernatural gore, and the postapocalyptic zombies, but to watch a half hour comedy that’s filled with hilarious banter, loving relationships, and Kenny Loggins’ music, is really refreshing.

The show centers on two childhood BFFs, Maggie (played by Lennon Parham) and Emma (played by Jessica St. Clair), who have stayed best friends throughout the years, but took very different directions throughout their lives. They soon end up on the same path when a sexual encounter at a baby shower changes everything.

Emma has come back to her hometown from her big job in China to visit Maggie for her baby shower. Emma hasn’t been home in years and she runs into a lot of folks that she probably didn’t want to see. During the baby shower Maggie’s brother, Zach (played by Zach Woods), and Emma start to show a beautiful video of Maggie’s life and all of sudden, Bruce, Maggie’s husband, is caught on a live-feed, video-sexing with MunichMuncher69. While helping Maggie deal with her life turning upside down, Emma screws up big time during an important video conference. Her boss tells her to take the next flight to China or be fired. Well, Bruce isn’t going to cut it and Maggie kicks him to the curb. After a proposal from Maggie, Emma chooses her best friend over her job and they decide to go through this pregnancy together.

Did I mention Key and Peele star, Keegan-Michael Key, is in this show?! He plays Emma’s old high school boyfriend, Mark. There might be some old feelings between them, but he’s married to “Bird Bones” (you’ll have to watch to see why that’s Lindsay Sloane‘s character’s nickname). He’s also a police officer in the town – I mean he solved a gnome mystery, very serious stuff.

Emma and Maggie have a special bond with each other in which most people can relate to with their best friend. They’re strong, independent and hilarious. The actors have amazing chemistry, probably because Lennon Parham and Jessica St. Clair are biffles in real life and also co-created and co-wrote the show. You’ll laugh, cry and want to be their best friends – both on set and off, because I bet they have a blast together.

We left off with Maggie having her baby and Emma driving them down Main Street, celebrating them home to the sound of Kenny Loggins. Season 2 sounds like it will be “totes kewl” because Kenny Loggins will be guest starring in the Season 2 finale and Maggie gets a visit from HGTV‘s Property Brothers in the premiere, PLUS more Bosephus! (I’m thinking my Halloween costume is set for this year).

Tune in for the season premiere of Playing House on USA at 10/9c on August 4.
