Netflix is staying in business with Dragon, renewing its father-son comedy Unstable for an eight-episode second season, TVLine has learned.
Unstable stars Rob Lowe as Ellis Dragon, a “universally admired, eccentric, narcissist-adjacent biotech entrepreneur working to make the world a better place,” per Netflix’s official logline. To complicate matters further, Dragon is in an “emotional free-fall,” and his only hope may rest in his polar-opposite son Jackson Dragon (played by Lowe’s real-life son John Owen Lowe).

Early in the pandemic, satirical comedy duo Chad Kroeger and Jt Parr took to the streets in one of Southern California’s most mandate-averse coastal communities, Huntington Beach, to hand out masks.
With their disarming surfer bro vernacular and a faux-naivety about a “mask shortage,” they attempted to deliver free face coverings to a variety of boardwalk denizens — each of them turning the guys away, citing medical misinformation, religious zealotry and other QAnon-approved rhetoric. They racked up 2.2 million views and countless pick-up, and it was hardly their first brush with viral fame. Their appearances at various SoCal city council meetings are the stuff of local legend. They even tricked Fox News into booking them for an interview. And, come Aug. 23, their unique brand of activism and comedy gets its own Netflix series: Chad and Jt Go Deep.
The streamer dubs the show a “raunchy prank comedy.

Netflix has added to the cast of Rob Lowe and John Owen Lowe’s upcoming scripted comedy. Joining the father and son duo in Unstable are Sian Clifford, Rachel Marsh, Emma Ferreira, and Aaron Branch as series regulars. Fred Armisen, Tom Allen, and Jt Parr will be recurring guest stars. The series was created by the Lowes and Victor Fresco, and they will executive produce with Marc Buckland. Unstable follows an introverted son, Jackson (John Owen Lowe), who goes to work for his very successful, wildly eccentric father, Ellis (Rob Lowe), in order to save him and his successful biotech company from disaster. It is inspired by Rob and John Owen Lowe’s social media relationship, in which the latter often humorously trolls his father. Clifford will play Anna, the company’s Chief Financial Officer who has been with Ellis since the beginning. Described as “strong, smart, opinionated, and 100 percent loyal” to him,...
