Apple Renews 'Mythic Quest' for Seasons Three and Four [Video]

Apple has announced a season three and four pickup of 'Mythic Quest,' the workplace comedy series from creators Rob McElhenney, Charlie Day and Megan Ganz.

McElhenney, who also stars, shared the news in his signature comedic style with a video featuring fellow Apple TV+ star and Emmy Award winner Jason Sudeikis (“Ted Lasso”), and Academy Award winner Sir Anthony Hopkins, who recently earned a Primetime Emmy Award nomination for Outstanding Narrator for his guest star role in the “Mythic Quest” special, “Everlight.” Boasting a 100% Certified Fresh score on Rotten Tomatoes, the series is set to open the writers’ room for season three later this year.
