Apple TV cancels Palm Royale after two seasons<\/p>\n

Apple TV has canceled Palm Royale after two seasons, Deadline<\/a> reports, concluding the Emmy-nominated dramedy\u2019s run at the streamer. Created by Abe Silva and starring Kristen Wiig, the series aired 20 episodes after debuting in March 2024. Apple declined to comment on the cancellation.<\/p>\n

Palm Royale starred Wiig as Maxine Simmons, an ambitious social climber trying to enter Palm Beach high society in 1969. The ensemble cast included Laura Dern, Allison Janney, Ricky Martin, Josh Lucas, Leslie Bibb, Amber Chardae Robinson, Mindy Cohn, Julia Duffy, and Carol Burnett. Season 2 added Claudia Ferri, Jason Canela, Jordan Bridges, James Urbaniak, Roberto Sanchez, Rick Cosnett, and Ryan Dorsey. John Stamos, Patti LuPone, Vicki Lawrence, and Matt Rogers also joined in the second season.<\/p>\n

The first season earned 11 Emmy Award nominations. These included Outstanding Comedy Series, Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy for Wiig, and Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series for Burnett. The show won for Outstanding Original Main Title Theme Music. For Season 2, Wiig received a nomination at the Annual Actor Awards. The series also earned a GLAAD Media Award nomination for Outstanding Comedy Series.<\/p>\n

Loosely based on Juliet McDaniel\u2019s novel Mr. and Mrs. American Pie and produced by Apple Studios, the series followed Maxine as she attempted to cross \u201cthat impermeable line between the haves and the have-nots.\u201d The dramedy asked, \u201cHow much of yourself are you willing to sacrifice to get what someone else has?\u201d<\/p>\n

Season 2 depicted Maxine as a social pariah after a public breakdown, working to prove \u201cthat not only does she belong, but she might have what it takes to rule this town.\u201d The finale featured a tribute to Burnett\u2019s character, Norma Dellacorte, who sang \u201cSomething Good.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Apple TV\u00a0has pulled the plug on one of its recent\u00a0high profile originals.
