Our Review
Stick (2025) is a comedy and sports series from Apple TV. It premiered on June 4, 2025. Viewers rate it 6.0 out of 10. It is currently running. It runs 2 seasons.
What Stick Is About
Pryce Cahill is an over-the-hill, ex-pro golfer whose career was derailed prematurely 20 years ago. After the collapse of his marriage and getting fired from his job at an Indiana sporting goods store, Pryce hedges his bets, and future, entirely on a troubled 17-year-old golf phenom named Santi. Stick is a heartfelt, feel-good comedy about a found family and their relationships set within the world of golf as it’s never been shown before.
What to Expect When You Watch
The format keeps each instalment self-contained enough to drop into, spread across 2 seasons and it leans into its comedy/sports roots while leaving room for the quieter character beats.
Performance-wise the series leans on Owen Wilson, Peter Dager and Mariana Treviño to carry the emotional weight, with the rest of the ensemble filling out the world around them.
Cast and Creative Team
Owen Wilson, Peter Dager, Mariana Treviño, Marc Maron and Lilli Kay lead the cast.
Key roles include Owen Wilson as Pryce Cahill; Peter Dager as Santi Wheeler; Mariana Treviño as Elena Wheeler; Marc Maron as Mitts; Lilli Kay as Zero.
Why It Stands Out
Fans of comedy and sports have a clear reason to give this one a shot. It sits comfortably alongside Apple TV’s other originals, a 6.0/10 audience score puts it in steady company and it commits to its premise instead of hedging between tones.
Released in 2025 and carried by Apple TV with the series still running, it lands hardest with comedy and sports viewers.
How Stick Compares
If Stick lands for you, the next stops are Nathan for You, Taskmaster and Seinfeld, which share its comedy/sports lean.
Each of those sits at a different point on the same spectrum, so they make a natural follow-up once you finish the run here.

On the whole Stick is the kind of series that rewards a patient watch, with Owen Wilson and Peter Dager doing the heaviest lifting, a tone that stays true to its comedy/sports roots, It has held up since 2025 and so if the premise sounds like your lane, the execution holds up.
The Bottom Line
Stick is a safe bet for anyone already inside the comedy and sports lane, the audience score holds around 6.0/10 and so there is little risk in starting it tonight.
Verdict: 6.0/10. Watch it if you want comedy/sports you can settle into.
