By Miles Carter, November 14, 2026

Megan Thee Stallion is going back to The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins. In a Nov 10, 2026, announcement, NBC said she will guest star in the comedy's Season 2 finale, reprising Denise, whom the network describes as "a divorced mom who had a flirtation with Arthur Tobin (Daniel Radcliffe) in Season 1 of the series." Felicity Newton at Dork also reported that the return comes in the season two finale. NBC has not said when that episode airs.

Her announcement

Megan shared the news on Instagram. Her caption opens, "Guess who’s on my phone againnn🧙‍♂️🪄😂 DENISE IS BACK 😘," then points viewers to the show on NBC and to next-day streaming on Peacock. Odafe Oghen at TheGrio described the clip: Megan, in a red dress, lip-syncs to her "Thin Ice" freestyle while Radcliffe briefly pops into the frame. KAZI reported earlier on the streaming climb of "Thin Ice".

Denise and the new season

Denise first appeared in "You May Hug Your Hero," which aired March 16, 2026, according to both Dork and TheGrio. Newton reported that she came back in "The World Is Full of Beaks," as Tobin, a documentary filmmaker, kept fumbling his attempts to win her over. NBC posted clips of that storyline, including "Tobin Flirts with Denise," on March 30, 2026.

NBC's release frames Season 2 around "the unlikely duo of former football star Reggie Dinkins (Tracy Morgan) and documentarian Arthur Tobin (Daniel Radcliffe), both still chasing redemption and still making a mess of it." The season premiered Nov 2, 2026, with "We Keep the Kisses," and NBC's show page lists "The Spaghetti Loop" as the second episode, on Nov 9. New episodes air weekly at 8:30 p.m. ET on NBC and stream on Peacock the next day, per NBC. Newton reported that the season runs ten episodes.

Neither NBC's release nor its show page gives a date for the finale yet.
