"I can't wait to get the band back together to show the world
just how much fun sobriety can be," said Farrelly.
"I'm beyond excited to be working with Peter Farrelly, our talented cast, and the fine
folks of the AT&T AUDIENCE Network on another season of
Loudermilk," said Mort. "I'm really looking forward to making Sam's
bad attitude about everything even worse...but in a good way."
"Since its premiere, both critics and fans have fallen for
Sam Loudermilk's cynical charm,"
said Dan York, executive vice
president and chief content officer, AT&T. "We are thrilled to
bring 'Loudermilk' back for another round and can't wait to see
what comedic geniuses Peter Farrelly
and Bobby Mort have in store for
season 2."

Loudermilk, Will Sasso

Mennell ("Watchmen") as Allison and
Anja Savcic ("I Love You, Beth
Cooper") as Claire.
Season 1 of "Loudermilk," centered on Sam Loudermilk, a recovering alcoholic and
substance abuse counselor with an extremely bad attitude about,
well, everything. He is unapologetically uncensored and manages to
piss off everyone in his life. Although he has his drinking under
control, Loudermilk discovers that when your life is a complete
mess, getting clean is the easy part.
