Welcome back inside the many minds of Nick Kroll as Comedy Central's critically-acclaimed pop culture sketch-uational comedy series "Kroll Show" returns for a second season. Kroll brings his characters back to life with more drama and hilarity than ever before, including publicist "Liz" trying to cope with her pregnant coworker; renowned canine plastic surgeon "Dr. Armond," who gets involved in a murder mystery; more wild and absurd moments from the "Rich Dicks," and "Bobby Bottleservice," who moves into a "Gigolo House."
