Apple TV has dropped a new teaser for Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed, the highly anticipated darkly comedic thriller from creator and showrunner David J. Rosen, and led by Emmy Award winner Tatiana Maslany (“Orphan Black,” “The Monkey”) and Jake Johnson (“New Girl,” upcoming “The Dink”). The half hour, ten-episode series will make its global debut on Apple TV with the first two episodes on Wednesday, May 20, followed by new episodes every Wednesday through July 15.
“Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed” follows newly divorced mum Paula (Maslany) as she falls down a dangerous rabbit hole of blackmail, murder and youth football. 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.
