Bounce’s breakout hit original drama series Saints & Sinners returns for a much-anticipated second season on Sunday, March 5, with new episodes premiering every Sunday night at 9:00 p.m. (ET/PT).
Season two brings viewers back to Cypress, Georgia, the sleepy southern town outside Atlanta which has been rocked by the murders of a beloved pastor and the town’s Mayor. Death’s shadow continues to loom over the town’s epicenter, Greater Hope Baptist Church, as a dead body is discovered on its grounds, bringing up the church’s sordid past along with it. As concealed secrets claw their way to the surface, new alliances are formed and deceit, jealousy and compromising sexual affairs threaten to shatter lives and demolish the heart of the church and the town forever. As everyone’s dark past comes to light, the difference between being a saint or a sinner becomes more distorted than ever.

- Vanessa Bell Calloway (Shameless, Coming to America) as Lady Ella, the secretive beauty queen with a business mind who takes over as Mayor – and takes her sins to a whole new level.
