Synopsis
In this comedy series from Danny McBride (HBO’s Vice Principals), celebrity televangelist Eli Gemstone (John Goodman) struggles to keep his emotionally-stunted children in check – and their big-money megachurch afloat. While eldest son Jesse (McBride) vies for control of their father’s empire, middle child Judy (Edi Patterson) fights for a seat at the table, and Kelvin (Adam Devine), the youngest, chafes under the pressure of Eli’s expectations. Continually embroiled in disagreements about the family business - season two finds our blessed Gemstone family threatened by outsiders from both the past and present who wish to destroy their empire. An irreverent look at the lives of holy rollers, The Righteous Gemstones explores the salacious world of those who offer salvation to the highest bidder.
