Apple comedy “Brothers” takes a true rumor and makes it as real as Texas law will allow. Years ago, after mutually appreciating the good times enjoyed on Hollywood sets, Woody Harrelson and Matthew McConaughey contemplated possibilities of a deeper bond. McConaughey’s mother, Ma Mac (Holland Taylor), mentioned a coincidental overlap during a divorce from her larger-than-life, but now deceased rodeo star husband, James Donald “Big Jim” McConaughey. During that short time, she might have known Harrelson’s father, a renowned roustabout now incarcerated with a checkered past in the intelligence community, “in the Biblical sense.” Well, hilarity ensues as tangled webs weave a practice mistaken to deceive. If this sounds like a setup from a retro television sitcom, it’s not that far off. “Brothers” follows the rhythms of classic TV icons, both Golden Age and contemporary hits. Created by Lee Eisenberg, who produced “The Office,” “Brothers” circumnavigates modern sensibilities while surfing traditional comedy waters, breaking noses rather than jumping sharks. Woody and Matthew recall the antics of Rick and Fred from “I Love Lucy,” but with highly informed wives.
