Lucky Hank
. An hour-long dramedy, the series just premiered at the SXSW Festival, ahead of its Mar. 19 debut on AMC. It stars the leading man as William Henry “Hank” Devereaux, Jr., an English professor and department chair at Pennsylvania’s Railton College. Sporting a salt-and-pepper beard, nondescript spectacles and the sorts of collared-shirts-with-a-jacket attire that’s the uniform of so many in his profession, Hank looks like your average educator. Unsurprisingly, he’s anything but.
Unsurprisingly, that outburst doesn’t go over well with the faculty dean nor with colleagues, most notably Gracie DuBois , a poetry expert who defends her record and reputation and then calls for a vote to oust Hank from his seat at the head of the department table—something that’s acceded to by fellow professors Paul , Emma , Teddy , and June .
Hank has his own parental headaches courtesy of daughter Julie and her boyfriend Russell , who seem to think that Hank and Lily are benefactors upon whom they can rely rather than getting practical jobs. Hank’s status as a frustrated father figure additionally extends to his officemates. In the funniest moment in’s first two episodes , he is ousted as department chair, only to then be reinstated to the post when he wins the follow-up vote to choose his replacement.
