What’s This TV Show About?
A Showtime historical comedy full of 1980s excess, Black Monday stars Don Cheadle, Regina Hall, Paul Scheer, Horatio Sanz, Yassir Lester, Andrew Rannells. Centering on the stock market crash of October 19, 1987, the action unfolds at the Jammer Group, a shabby little firm lead by Maurice “Mo” Monroe (Cheadle). Mo’s team of traders includes the practical, no-nonsense Dawn (Hall), the compliant Keith (Scheer), Wayne (Sanz) the wild man, and Yassir (Lester), who is not lacking in self-confidence, and into this lion’s den walks the new kid on the block — Blair Pfaff (Rannells). Guest stars in the first season include: Casey Wilson, Kurt Braunholer, Ken Marino, Eugene Cordero, Bruce Dern, Melissa Rauch, Kadeem Hardison, Vanessa Bell Calloway, Tim Russ, Julie Hagerty, Phil Reeves, and Jason Michael Snow.
