Trending Shows Kevin James Manages Motley NASCAR Crew in Netflix Comedy — Watch TrailerMore stories by Ryan NASCAR fans will have more than just the Daytona 500 to look forward to on Presidents’ Day weekend. Netflix announced Friday that The Crew, a NASCAR sitcom headlined by Kevin James, will premiere Monday, Feb. 15 — one day after the big race. The 10-episode comedy centers on Kevin, a NASCAR crew chief for the fictional Bobby Spencer Racing team. “When the owner (Rizzoli & Isles‘ Bruce McGill) steps down and passes the team off to his daughter Catherine (The Last O.G.‘s Jillian Mueller), Kevin has to protect himself and his crew from her attempts to modernize the team.” Kevin is also concerned that Catherine is going to replace charismatic driver Jake Martin (Bridgerton‘s Freddie Stroma) with up-and-comer Jessie (Alexa & Katie‘s Paris Berelc). “Sponsors love the idea of getting a young woman behind the wheel — and unlike Jake, she knows as much about the cars as the mechanics,” according to the official logline.
Additional series regulars include Gary Anthony Williams (The Neighborhood) as Chuck, an old-school member of the crew with MacGyver-level skills; Dan Ahdoot (Cobra Kai) as Amir, the technologically savvy member of the crew; and Sarah Stiles (Billions) as Beth, who carries a torch for Kevin. Sitcom vet Jeff Lowell (The Ranch, Two and a Half Men) serves as showrunner, and executive-produces alongside James, series director Andy Fickman (Kevin Can Wait, Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2), Jeff Sussman (The King of Queens, Kevin Can Wait, both Paul Blart films), Todd Garner (Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2) and NASCAR’s Matt Summers and Tim Clark.

UGH! Him plus that subject matter. Perfect storm of unwatchable material
My words exactly! Gross
Good lord this looks like more hackneyed trash. Throw it in the fire!!
I agree it doesn’t look good.
I see it becoming Netflix’s longest running series. haha
Looks really bad and the laugh track is just awful. Atta go Netflix, another dud.
Really like Kevin James! Wish they would revamp The King of Queens!
Looking forward to seeing Kevin James on the small screen again. Love NASCAR
and enjoy Kevin . He’s a treat to watch!
This has to be a troll comment.
I just wonder who’s going to be unceremoniously killed off and replaced with Leah Remini. Not that I’ll be watching to find out, this looked particularly awful.
He’s shtick gets tired fast
Betcha anything that by the second or third season (if it makes it that far) they will fire one of the women on the show and bring in Leah Remini to try to save it.
I think we already saw all the funny bits. I like Kevin but this idea will have a limited audience. Try harder.
Looking forward to this one! Kevin Can Wait was cancelled far too soon.
