Apple TV+ is gearing up to introduce a fresh addition to its catalog with the comedy series, “Still Up”. This highly-anticipated show is scheduled for a grand debut in September, marking the continuation of Apple TV+’s streak of bringing intriguing content to its platform.
“Still Up”: A Dive into Late-Night Love and Secrets
The premiere of the initial three episodes of “Still Up” is set for Friday, September 22. The series comprises a total of eight episodes, which will continue to grace our screens weekly every Friday. Fans can mark their calendars for the season finale, scheduled for October 27.
Billed as “an almost romantic comedy,” “Still Up” revolves around the lives of Danny, portrayed by Craig Roberts, and Lisa, played by Antonia Thomas. Set against the backdrop of the duo’s “after-hours world,” the series delves deep into the lives of two individuals battling insomnia. Despite the open nature of their lives, there’s one secret they both harbor—unspoken feelings for each other. Joining the ensemble cast are Blake Harrison, Lois Chimimba, Luke Fetherston, and Rich Fulcher, ensuring an engaging on-screen experience.
Behind the scenes, Steve Burge and Natalie Walter take the mantle as the co-creators and primary writers. Steve Burge is not a new name in the comedy circle, with his contributions to “Seekers,” an audio comedy series, and other prominent television projects like “The Amelia Gething Complex” and “The Ministry of Curious Staff.” Bryce Hart collaborates as a co-writer, while the director’s chair is occupied by the BAFTA-nominated John Addis. The production prowess comes from BAFTA and Emmy award-winners Paul Schlesinger and Phil Clarke, with Arabella McGuigan executing the role of the producer. Credit for the series’ production is attributed to Various Artists Limited, specifically for Apple TV+.
Apple TV+: What Lies Ahead
But that’s not all Apple TV+ has in store for its audience. “Still Up” joins a robust lineup of upcoming shows that viewers are eagerly awaiting.
Earlier this month, fans witnessed the TV rendition of Nathan W. Pyle’s acclaimed graphic novel, “Strange Planet.” Close on its heels, on August 23, “Invasion” is making a comeback with its second season, throwing light on humanity’s struggle against an extraterrestrial takeover.
September is packed with releases as well. The horror narrative “The Changeling” is slated for a September 8 launch. This series, starring LaKeith Stanfield and Clark Backo, traces the journey of a couple trying to break a curse to safeguard their future child. Adding to the September excitement is the return of “The Morning Show” for its third season on September 13. The series promises to delve into the challenges faced by a network team pitted against a tech magnate.
