The season two finale airs on February 27. Created, written and executive produced by Danny McBride (HBO's "Vice Principals" and "Eastbound & Down"), and marking his third HBO comedy series from Rough House Pictures, THE RIGHTEOUS GEMSTONES tells the story of a world-famous televangelist family with a long tradition of deviance, greed and charitable work.

· IndieWire hails season two of THE RIGHTEOUS GEMSTONES as "a pulpit for comedy" that "keeps elevating the laughs to heavenly heights" and Vulture praises season two for being a "poignant exploration of generational change and individual purpose" and "a showcase for McBride as a writer and director." "[McBride] has never been funnier" states Esquire, with Slate hailing the series as "the funniest one currently on the air." Collider declared the series as "one of the greatest ensembles in comedic television."

· Amy Gravitt, executive vice president, HBO Programming quote: "After a season of literal fire and brimstone, blood, sand, and rollerblading, who wouldn't come back for more?" says Gravitt. "The Gemstone family makes us laugh like nobody else."
