Shrinking is back for season 3 on Apple TV today, and it is starting off things on a happier note than the season finale.
Not everything is rosier. Paul’s (Harrison Ford) Parkinson’s is getting worse, and he can’t hide it anymore. Even though his girlfriend, Julie (Wendie Malick), and co-workers Jimmy (Jason Segel) and Gaby (Jessica Williams) are there for him, they don’t fully understand what he is going through. However, he will find that someone in Jerry (Michael J. Fox), whom he meets at the neurologist’s office.
On a happier note, Jimmy and Julie’s relationship is still going strong, and you will see that in the season premiere.
You will also see Alice (Lukita Maxwell) growing up. Tonight, a college scout is interested in her. However, the college is on the other side of the country. How will her dad, Jimmy, feel about her leaving him?
And how will Liz (Christa Miller) feel about Alice leaving her? Luckily, she is busy with Brian (Michael Urie) and Charlie’s (Devin Kawaoka) upcoming baby, now that her husband, Derek (Ted McGinley), got her job as their nanny.
So there are a lot of good things happening for them. But this is Shrinking, and not everything will be happy going forward. But the great thing is that they are always there for each other through all of life’s changes.
It is their chemistry and the writing that keep us tuning in. I don’t know about you, but I wish my friends were as awesome as the characters are on this show. Their bond is what my friends should aspire to! So for that reason, I feel like I am with my friends when I watch.
Shrinking is back with a new season tomorrow, but today, the cast and crew found out the season finale was not a series finale. That is because Apple TV picked it up for a fourth season.
Is the news a surprise? Not at all. That is because the series, which stars Harrison Ford, Jason Segel, Christa Miller, Jessica Williams, Luke Tennie, Michael Urie, Lukita Maxwell, and Ted McGinley, is so brilliantly done that you cannot help but to love it.
The show that follows the lives of three therapists and their loved ones as they navigate this crazy thing called life. They are there for each other in the good times and the bad ones. Because with friends like them, who needs family?
If you have not seen Shrinking yet, watch it now before the season 3 premiere. I know several people who subscribe to Apple TV just for this Bill Lawrence dramedy.
Apple TV had a little belated Christmas present for us. What did they get us? The trailer for Shrinking’s season 3 is one of the best things I got for the holiday!
How does the show keep getting better and better with each episode? I don’t know, and I don’t care, as long as it does. So, I can’t wait to see how they top themselves starting on January 28th.
Why do we have to wait that long? Can they move it up to January 1st? I need it sooner than that. And it is all about me and my needs! Don’t tell me I need therapy because, like Brian, I was told I didn’t need it by multiple therapists.
I don’t know about you, but I have been waiting to see what happens next on Shrinking after that tear-jerking season finale.
Today, Apple TV revealed that the therapists are back for 11 sessions starting on January 28th.
This time around Jason Segel, Harrison Ford, Christa Miller, Jessica Williams, Luke Tennie, Michael Urie, Lukita Maxwell, Ted McGinley, Brett Goldstein, Wendie Malick, will be joined by Damon Wayans Jr., Cobie Smulders, Jeff Daniels, Candice Bergen, and Michael J. Fox.
And that is pretty much all we know about what we can expect from the upcoming season. That, and we will need tissues.
Before Harrison Ford was a psychiatrist on Shrinking, he had only taken three years of psychology on Love, American Style. How groovy was the 30-year-old in that 1973 episode?
