And here he is again, starring in NBC’s “The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins,” a mockumentary from Robert Carlock and Sam Means, about a disgraced football pro looking to salvage his reputation. Teenage son Carmelo (Jalyn Hall), who plays football but wants to sing, works his divorced parents to his advantage. Arthur, who has been filming Reggie even in his sleep, might actually be. Craig Robinson is Reggie’s nemesis, as the aforementioned Jerry Basmati, a rival player (and cynical Christian), who inherited the post-gridiron media career Reggie imagined for himself. Corbin Bernsen plays his hate-filled old coach, whose career collapsed without Reggie on the team.
