Paul Reiser, remembered for his long-running role in “Mad About You” in the ’90s and parts in a host of other films and series since then (“Whiplash,” “Concussion,” “Married”), is now playing Getty, the country club president, in Amazon’s “Red Oaks,” returning for its second season Nov. 11.
“It’s fun to play this nasty guy who’s walking around like a big shot — a big shot in a very small pool,” Reiser said. “At the end of last season, he got hauled off the tennis court in handcuffs for insider trading, so that is looming large. There’s a trial and a play to get him ousted as president. The ground is shifting under his feet.”
