Steve Carell is back on the small screen and back at college in the upcoming HBO series “Rooster.” In the ten episode series, Carell visits his daughter (Charly Clive), a professor whose husband, a fellow professor, left her for a graduate student. Carell, the bestselling author behind a popular book series, is coaxed into contributing on campus, where he befriends students, attends frat parties and tries to live up to the nickname “Rooster,” the popular party-guy main character of his novels. The series also stars Danielle Deadwyler, “Ted Lasso’s” Phil Dunster, John C. McGinley and Lauren Tsai. “Rooster” debuts on March 8 at 10pm on HBO. Episodes will air weekly through Sunday, May 10.
