Rueben's Ramblings

On March 20, the comedy-drama Palm Royale will debut on Apple TV+ online.

This series is a true underdog story following Maxine Simmons (Kristen Wiig) as she endeavors to break into Palm Beach high society. As Maxine attempts to cross that impermeable line between the haves and the have-nots, the series asks the same question that still baffles us today: “How much of yourself are you willing to sacrifice to get what someone else has?”

Set during the powder keg year of 1969, the series is a testament to every outsider fighting for their chance to truly belong.

The ensemble cast includes Allison Janney, Bruce Dern, the legendary Carol Burnett, Josh Lucas, Julia Duffy, Laura Dern, Leslie Bibb, Mindy Cohn, Ricky Martin and Kaia Gerber.

Here is a trailer for Palm Royale:
