Thirteen episode season.
Starts Wednesday, September 3rd. 10/9c on FXX.

The League follows a group of old friends in a fantasy football league who care deeply about one another - so deeply that they use every opportunity to make each other's lives miserable. The League features an ensemble cast of rising actors/comedians. Stephen Rannazzisi (Paul Blart: Mall Cop) is "Kevin," a happily married father and commissioner of the league. Katie Aselton (Black Rock) plays "Jenny," Kevin's wife and his better half - especially when it comes to Fantasy Football. Mark Duplass (Tammy) plays "Pete," the perennial league champ who is struggling to become an adult. Jon Lajoie is "Taco," Kevin's little brother, a part-time musician and full-time stoner with little interest in fantasy other than hanging with his buddies (whom he struggles to remember). Nick Kroll (Kroll Show) plays "Ruxin," who believes he is the smartest of the group but can't figure out how exactly the other guys are screwing him over. "Andre," played by Paul Scheer (NTSF:SD:SUV), has continued to be the punching bag of the group since their high school days - a fact that hasn't changed despite the fact he is now a successful plastic surgeon. The League was created by the husband-and-wife team of Jeff Schaffer (Curb Your Enthusiasm, Seinfeld) and Jackie Marcus Schaffer (Disturbia, Eurotrip) who serve as executive producers and directors. The series is produced by FX Productions.

Gotta catch up on Season 5. I was hoarding episodes of it to binge watch, then my DVR's hard drive decided to die :/ Thank you Netflix for coming through!

This show's usually a fun time, glad it's almost back. Pretty excited for (spoiler from episode descriptions from OP)
another Dirty Randy/Rafi episode.

I'm hoping the show features a bit more fantasy shenanigans this season. I thought it was at its best when plotlines centered more around that than the random tangents.

The switch to FXX kinda killed the fun for me last year. Everyone in our group is in the same Fantasy Football League and The League was our show we talked about the next day since the show began. Last year half the people in our group didn't have FXX so the discussion around the show the next day sucked. I think most of them have the channel now so I'm hoping the next day discussion is back to previous levels.

I didn't realize this was starting up so soon. The show has lost a little bit of steam, but it's still hilarious when it gets rolling. Looking forward to the new season.

Mantzoukas, Scheer, and Rannazzisi were on the Wrap Up Show yesterday and today. So great, can't wait till tonight. I still wonder if Rafi's future we saw last season will really happen.

Can't wait! I hope they're gonna sell the Season Pass on iTunes... although, I really wish FX would stop throwing trailers for their other shows on the beginning of a show I'm paying for. :'(

It wasn't the most hilarious episode I've seen but I'm so glad The League is back.

Now the wait for football. Cuz everyone knows football and The League go well hand in hand.
