The second season of Apple's "Carpool Karaoke: The Series" television show is set to launch on Friday, October 12, with new episodes of the show to be available every Friday.

Based on a trailer shared by Apple, this season of "Carpool Karaoke" will feature Jason Sudeikis paired with Muppets, Matthew McConaughey paired with Snoop Dog, Weird Al paired with Andy Samberg, Nick Offerman and his wife Megan Mullally, and more.


"Carpool Karaoke: The Series" first debuted in August of last year. Based on the popular Carpool Karaoke segment made popular by "The Late Late Show With James Corden," the series pairs up different celebrities, musicians, athletes, putting them together in a car to sing popular songs.

Apple announced a second season of "Carpool Karaoke: The Series" back in February, and it is the first of the company's TV shows to get a second season.

A few "Carpool Karaoke" episodes aired ahead of the debut of the second season, including an episode with James Marsden and Evan Rachel Wood of "Westworld" and an episode starring the cast of summer movie "TAG" with Jeremy Renner, Ed Helms, and Jon Hamm.

While the first season of "Carpool Karaoke: The Series" was exclusive to Apple Music subscribers, Apple is making the second season available for free through the TV app on the Apple TV and iOS devices.

A few months after the end of the first season, Apple also made existing episodes available to watch for free via the TV app.

Stories about Carpool Karaoke tend to invite demand that Apple refocus efforts on computers and ignore original programming. I say we meet somewhere in the middle.

Have official viewer numbers been released? I am really curious if people are actually watching this. I can see this as a fun segment as part of a late night TV show, which is how this originally started of course. But I would be curious to see how well it is holding on it's own.

Apple should be paying people to watch this garbage - never seen it
 
Sorry, this thing used to rock because of James Corden, without him the magic is gone.

Imagine if they made it mandatory to have to sit through an episode of this the first time you turned on new Apple hardware.
 
Not everyone. It did win an Emmy for what it's worth. So that makes Tim Cook and the responsible party for giving that Emmy.

An Emmy??? Oh boy oh boy! I’ll bet I can use that Emmy to pay my rent with!...../s

I do not know one single person who has ever seen even one episode of this show.

Now you know one person, me. I did watch one episode and it was ok. I might enjoy it again if I went back to munching on Prozac.
 
If you have not watched it how can you decided it's bad? I've watched it and I enjoyed it...its fun and people are laughing. I enjoy seeing people happy and having fun. I, for one, am looking forward to seeing the muppets and Snoop/Matthew.

I just wanted to share, for the few people that came here looking for positive comments. :)
 
Maybe I'm in the minority here, but I've watched them all thus far, and enjoyed about 80% of them. So, yay for season 2. I'll be in.
