Apple today announced that it has renewed Apple TV+ series "Servant" for a third season ahead of its second season premiere on January 15, 2021.
"Servant" was one of the first shows on Apple TV+, and it was popular with Apple TV+ subscribers. Apple renewed it for a second season not long after the first season debuted.
"Servant" is a horror thriller produced by M. Night Shyamalan, who has also directed a few of the episodes. The series follows a Philadelphia couple who are in mourning after losing their child. Their baby, Jericho, is replaced by a reborn doll that the mother thinks is real, and a strange nanny, Leanne, is hired to look after the doll. After Leanne arrives, bizarre things start happening to the family.
Apple says the 10-episode second season will "take a supernatural turn" with a darker future for all involved as Leanne returns to the brownstone and her true nature is revealed.
The show stars Lauren Ambrose, Nell Tiger Free, Rupert Grint, and Toby Kebbell. The full first season of "Servant" is available on Apple TV+.

Not a lot but I’m happy to see them renewing. Especially Gems such as Ted Lasso, which is such a great show. Unlike Netflix that puts an Axe on popular show I hope Apple doesn’t succumb to this and cancel shows prematurely without allowing them to build up an audience.Correct me if I’m wrong but do we even have second seasons of any of their shows yet?
Also I’d recommend checking out more than an episode of ‘Trying’, it’s very sweet.
It would have been great if Apple had co-produced ‘Normal People’ with the BBC for TV+ instead of Hulu. Adapting literary novels - using a talented creative team & cast - for TV has great potential for excellent TV programmes, possibly a string of them at that.
This is to counter the Netflix method of canceling shows early. Apple is, in effect, reassuring customers that it's worth it for them to "buy into" their shows, and the creatives/creators will be allowed to create their vision uninterrupted. It's a major breath of fresh air.Correct me if I’m wrong but do we even have second seasons of any of their shows yet?
Me too. See is one of my favoritesI’m waiting on Season 2 of “See.” That show was pretty good to me.
