After a first season that plunged us into the world of 40’s musicals, ‘Schmigadoon!’ returns next April 5 (it was announced for 7) to Apple TV +. As we see in the first trailer, season 2 will lead to Josh and Melissa to a new musical erawelcoming us to Schmicago.
In this way, wanting to escape from the routine again, our protagonists decide to return to the candid and magical world… only to find that that musical town has evolved into something darker and less innocent as they delve into the musicals of the ’60s and ’70s.
Keegan-Michael Key and Cecily Strong they return to star in a series whose cast they join Titus Burgess and Patrick Page. In addition, we will see Ariana DeBose, Martin Short, Dove Cameron, Jaime Camil, Kristin Chenoweth, Alan Cumming, Ann Harada, Jane Krakowski and Aaron Tveit.
Five Paul is the co-creator, showrunner and composer main character of the series, whose first season was quite satisfactory. Although it can have a somewhat silly humor, the series is tremendously effective and fun so I hope the same for this new installment.
By the way, apparently ‘Ted Lasso’ did set a precedent, since This series also happens to premiere on Wednesdays, already setting a possible pattern for comedies. Season 2 consists of six episodes.
