Apple TV+ Shares Trailer for 'The Shrink Next Door' Comedy Series Starring Will Ferrell and Paul Rudd

[MacRumors]

Apple today shared a teaser trailer for "The Shrink Next Door," an eight-episode limited comedy series starring and executive produced by Will Ferrell and Paul Rudd. The first three episodes of the series will premiere globally on Apple TV+ on November 12, and the remaining episodes will be released weekly every Friday, according to Apple's announcement.

Based on the podcast of the same name by Wondery and Bloomberg Media, Apple says "The Shrink Next Door" is a dark comedy inspired by true events surrounding the bizarre relationship between psychiatrist Dr. Isaac "Ike" Herschkopf, played by Rudd, and his longtime patient Martin "Marty" Markowitz, played by Ferrell.

Over the course of their relationship, the all-too-charming Ike slowly inserts himself into Marty's life, even moving into Marty's Hamptons home and persuading Marty to name him president of the family business. The series explores how a seemingly normal doctor-patient dynamic morphs into an exploitative relationship filled with manipulation, power grabs, and dysfunction at its finest.

The project will bring Ferrell and Rudd on screen together for the first time since "Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues" in 2013.

In other Apple TV+ news, Apple has also shared a teaser trailer for season two of "Truth Be Told," an anthology drama series starring Octavia Spencer. The series is set to return August 20, with new episodes released every Friday.

In season two, investigative reporter turned true crime podcaster Poppy Parnell (played by Spencer) dives into a new case that deeply involves her childhood friend turned media mogul Micah Keith (played by Kate Hudson).

Sounds and looks too much like a Seinfeld TV show, not sure I'll watch this but will give first show a chance. AppleTV shows have surprised me in the past.

I hate Will Farrell.

As a huge ”Seinfeld” fan — what!?!

I hate Will Farrell.

and as always nobody cares.

You don't know that. For all you know Will Farrell a) reads MacRumours, and b) is quite thin-skinned.

 

[milkrocket]

Never expected AppleTV to have such good content. For All Mankind is one of the best TV shows imo. This one also looks promising. Great job!

I hate Will Farrell.

Thank you for your TED Talk.

So it’s funny how all apple originals have this very like, indie cinematic look and feel, dark high contrasty. Not necessarily a bad thing, but I always subconsciously get this feeling that I’m about to watch a serious film disguised as a comedy.

Good thing Apple didn't start out in the TV business. Another all star cast supported by D-list support staff.

 

[aWretchLikeMe]

Yes, please.

 

[bookcase]

It's shows like this that justify why I'll remain a subscriber after the year and a half of a free trial.

 

[filmantopia]

This looks like it could be really good. Fingers crossed. Excited for this one.

Love seeing Will Ferrell in a more dramatic role. Comedy performers tend to harbor pain and can sometimes give powerful dramatic performances.

 

[8CoreWhore]

What About Bob... in reverse.

 

[macduke]

I'll support anything Paul Rudd does. KC boys for life! Got to see him at the parade. Really down to earth, humble guy. Go Chiefs!

 

[crees!]

Looks like Will Ferrell could be in a Bob Ross film

 

[BeefCake 15]

I hate Will Farrell.

I'm not into his comedy style either but the Podcast is great, give it a try first.

 

[WiseAJ]

Great, but when exactly are we getting Foundation Apple?
