--------------------------------------------------------------
"Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed" has been renewed for a second season
at Apple TV.
Per the official logline, the series stars "follows newly divorced
mom Paula (Tatiana Maslany) as she falls down a dangerous rabbit
hole of blackmail, murder and youth soccer. Convinced she
witnessed a crime - while simultaneously struggling through a
custody battle and an identity crisis - Paula begins her own
investigation, one that could unravel a greater conspiracy while
also holding the keys to rebuilding her family and sense of self."
The cast also includes Jake Johnson as Paula's ex-husband Karl
alongside Murray Bartlett, Dolly De Leon, Brandon Flynn, Jessy
Hodges, Jon Michael Hill, Charlie Hall, Kiarra Hamagami Goldberg a
nd Nola Wallace.
David J. Rosen created "Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed" and serves as
showrunner. Executive producers include Rosen and director David
Gordon Green as well as Simon Kinberg Audrey Chon and Anonymous
Content's Bard Dorros, who developed the project. Apple Studios
and Counterpart Studios produce.
"We are delighted to continue the story of 'MPG' and deeply
grateful to Apple and our incredible cast and crew. This is all
pretty amazing for a show whose title came from a spam email,"
Rosen said in a statement.
Speaking to Variety about the twist in the Season 1 finale, Rosen
said, "I always intended it to be a reframing. We've felt Paula is
a reliable narrator, but we feel moments of unreliability. As Karl
says over and over, she's eccentric, acting in a way that's not
consistent. The audience is like, 'Screw you, Karl! She's going
through a lot right now!' But what we come to realize in the end is
that something more was afoot. Paula is more complicated than we
thought."
