Synopsis

Nathan Fielder returns with a second season of The Rehearsal, a show that blurs the line between documentary, performance, and social experiment. This time, he moves beyond helping awkward people prepare for tough conversations. The focus shifts toward aviation, specifically how miscommunication in cockpits can lead to real disasters.

Through obsessive recreations of black box data, cockpit simulations, and even the life story of Captain “Sully” Sullenberger, Nathan explores how hierarchy and hesitation can kill, and whether rehearsing extreme scenarios can make humans act better when it matters most.
