Ray Donovan‘s Liev Schreiber narrates a five-part docuseries, unfolding in half-hour chapters, taking viewers on the road and into the bowling alleys where professional bowlers compete for prize money and fame on the PBA (Professional Bowlers Association) tour. It’s not the most glamorous circuit, with players often sharing hotel rooms to manage costs, but when they’re in the zone, it can be as heated as any other sport. The series opens at the U.S. Open in Indianapolis, the year’s first major tournament, with the focus on Kyle Troup, self-described “Bob Ross of bowling,” or “the Pro with the ‘Fro,” who’s hoping to repeat his previous year’s success as the PBA’s “Green Jacket” winner.
