I first saw an ad for Brockmire — premiering tonight on IFC — several months ago and knew instantly it’d be a must-watch. Nothing Cubbish about it, but since today’s game was postponed I figured you’d need to get your baseball fix somehow. Check out the official description of the show from IFC’s site below and then watch the trailer. If you like what you see, the entire first episode is embedded below as well.
Brockmire (Hank Azaria) is a famed major league baseball announcer who suffers an embarrassing and very public meltdown live on the air after discovering his beloved wife’s serial infidelity.
