THE IRRATIONAL: NBC Delays Season 2 Premiere Due to VP Debate

The return of THE IRRATIONAL has been delayed a week due to the upcoming VP debate.

The Jesse L. Martin drama was originally supposed to return on Tuesday, October 1—the same night as the now-scheduled debate. Now, the show will have its season 2 premiere on Tuesday, October 8 at 10/9c. (Fox similarly shifted its schedule to accommodate for the debate.)

The series “follows world-renowned professor of behavioral science Alec Mercer (Jesse L. Martin) as he lends his unique expertise to high-stakes cases and mysteries. His insight and unconventional approach to understanding human behavior lead him to work alongside varying clients ranging from the FBI to everyday people caught in perplexing situations desperate for answers. With the help of his trusted team and social-science experiments, Alec solves crimes and uncovers the truth to answer intriguing, and irrational, questions.” The show also stars Maahra Hill, Travina Springer, Molly Kunz, and Arash DeMaxi.

Arika Lisanne Mittman showruns THE IRRATIONAL. Mark Goffman, Sam Baum, David Frankel, and Robert Wolfe serve as executive producers.
