Apple TV+ Show 'Dickinson' to End After Season 3, Which Debuts November 5

"Dickinson" was one of the first TV shows to be available on the Apple TV+ streaming service when it launched in November 2019, and it is set to wrap up with the third season, Apple announced today.

Season two of "Dickinson" premiered earlier this year, and season three is set to premiere on Friday, November 5. In the third season, Emily Dickinson (played by Hailee Steinfeld) sees her productivity fall amid the American Civil War and a battle that divides her own family. She tries to heal the divide around her, wondering if art can keep hope alive and if the future can be better than the past.

"Dickinson" stars Toby Huss, Adrian Blake Enscoe, Anna Baryshnikov, Ella Hunt, Amanda Warren, Chinaza Uche, and Jane Krakowski will return, as will Wiz Khalifa, who plays Death. Guest stars will include Billy Eichner, Chloe Fineman, Zosia Mamet, Will Pullen, and more.

The first three episodes will come out on November 5, with the remaining seven following on a Friday release schedule.

If this was any other studio, they would not allow the creator of the show to run only 3 seasons. It would be changed and dragged.

Apple appreciated the creator and didn’t interfere with its story line letting the show run as intended

Thank goodness this awful, misguided, defamatory show is ending. Good riddance.

Could be saving face, but it sounds like from the creator (see link in original post) that the show was envisioned as a 3 season arc. If true, bravo for not pushing it further.

Not going to lie. First thought looking at the OP photo, "in what movie did Michael Jackson play a union soldier?" 🤣

A fantastic show, even if you are not into costume drama or poetry. The cast is so charismatic (Toby Huss as Dickinson's dad is a standout) and the series look and sound so stylish. It reminds me a lot of Heath Ledger's A Knight's Tale.

November 5 release date is a great surprise and I look forward to creator Alena Smith's future Apple TV+ series.
