Owen Wilson's charm helps land ‘Stick' on the green
When Hollywood portrays sports on the screen, it's often represented in the comedy genre. Golf is particularly synonymous with humour. Separate from the idea that between strokes players drive around manicured links in a motorised cart fitted with Eskies, the game's sheer degree of difficulty – in the hooks and hacks of seasoned and casual players alike – makes it highly relatable for laughs. Think back to the Chevy Chase-Bill Murray '80s classic Caddyshack, or Tin Cup and Happy Gilmore in the '90s. Since then, golf stories have been absent from our screens. But as the split between the Saudi-backed LIV tour and the US PGA only serves to highlight greed and extreme wealth at the elite level, what better way to rehabilitate the sport's green-washed integrity than through a streaming comedy treatment?

‘Stick': The First TV Golf Sitcom Hits Most of Its Marks
TV-MA | 10 episodes | Comedy, Drama, Sports | 2025 Having grown up with golf (my dad was a pro golfer), I'm particularly drawn to features about the sport. There haven't been many of them, and, of those, only a few are very good. There's 'Tin Cup' (1996), 'Caddyshack' (1980), and 'The Greatest Game Ever Played' (2005). That's pretty much it. Adam Sandler's 'Happy Gilmore' (1996) has a big cult following, but I didn't care for it as I don't care much for Sandler in general.

The actor, 62, is best known for his role in the cult golf comedy Caddyshack alongside Murray. He played the cocky teen caddie Tony D'Annunzio in the 1980 film. Despite his success, Scott Colomby has kept a low profile over the years with fans rarely catching a glimpse of the former screen star.
