Last year, this series struggled in the ratings even by TV Land standards. Will the ratings for Impastor improve in season two? Will this comedy be cancelled or renewed for a third season? Stay tuned.

On Impastor, slacker Buddy Dobbs (Michael Rosenbaum) has a big gambling debt and is about to jump off a bridge to kill himself. A reverend happens by and tries to stop him. When the pastor accidentally falls to his doom, Buddy is left with the unlikely opportunity to steal the man’s identity. The rest of the regular castmembers are Sara Rue, Mircea Monroe, Mike Kosinski, and David Rasche. Recurring are Aimee Garcia, Matthew Kevin Anderson, Jonathon Young, Lindsey Gort, Hal Ozsan, and Bonita Friedericy.
