The Afterparty may have just had its final episode on Apple TV+. In this uncertain time of renewals and cancellations with the writers strike now continuing almost right up until the usual US TV season.
Created by Christopher Miller, the second season premiered on mid-July, extending its episode count to 10, up from 8 in season one.
The second season takes place the day after a wedding and follows the same formula of each guest's perspective of the day before.
Tiffany Haddish returns Detective Danner, along with Sam Richardson and Zoë Chao are set to reprise their roles for the second season.
With Elizabeth Perkins, Zach Woods, Paul Walter Hauser, Poppy Liu, Anna Konkle, Jack Whitehall and Vivian Wu joining round two as, respectively, Isabel, Edgar, Travis, Grace, Hannah, Sebastian, and Vivian.
Also starring big hitters Ken Jeong and John Cho for the wedding afterparty.
I remember almost bingeing all episodes of season one almost back to back. Look I gave it a second go, however this was one of those anthology series that actually did start from scratch new and improve.
It actually remained the same with Tiffany Haddish honestly being the saving grace of the second season. Her Danner's Fire episode was the BEST by far. This episode was funny, a little horny, but overall focusing on the best character this show has produced.
Apple TV+ must have a few shows in the bag as the content just keeps rolling out. We will farewell Physical after three interesting seasons in a few weeks.
My prediction for this series is it may be another casualty of the writers strike. It seems to be biting at HBO with little high quality content on the way. Unless you liked the Gilded Age, as that's returning. Showtime also seem a little stuck with The Chi airing the current sixth season in two parts and on Stan I can't see the final Yellowstone episodes coming anytime soon.
Thank god they have Starz content with another Power spin-off on now, with another to come, followed by BMF returning in March 2024. Shining Vale also on Starz stateside but Binge in Australia will also return after a lengthy break next month.
Until next post, happy Spring!
