Shrinking follows grieving therapist Jimmy (Segel), who starts to break the rules and tell his clients exactly what he thinks. Ignoring his training and ethics, he finds himself making huge, tumultuous changes to people’s lives … including his own.

Season 2 sees Jimmy continuing to reconnect with his daughter Alice (Lukita Maxwell) while mourning the loss of his wife. Meanwhile, Ford’s Dr. Paul Rhoades comes to terms with his Parkinson’s diagnosis after sparking a romance with his neurologist Dr. Julie Baram (Wendie Malick).

Created by Bill Lawrence, Brett Goldstein and Segel, the series also stars Christa Miller, Jessica Williams, Luke Tennie, Michael Urie and Ted McGinley. Goldstein appears a special guest star in Season 2.

Season 1 earned Segel best actor nominations for a Golden Globe and an Emmy Award, as well as an Emmy nod for Williams in the Outstanding Supporting Actress category.
