Loosely based on the 1947 musical Brigadoon, writing duo Cinco Paul and Ken Daurio have adapted the originals premise about two American tourists encountering an enchanted Scottish village, focusing instead on bickering couple Melissa (Strong) and Josh (Key).
On a backpacking trip designed to salvage their relationship, they stumble upon a magical town called Schmigadoon. This pastoral locale and its provincial inhabitants ready to form a chorus line at every opportunity are torn straight from the pages of a Rodgers and Hammerstein musical, and the confounded couple find themselves trapped in this high-kicking hellscape, unable to leave until theyve found true love.
Directed by Barry Sonnenfeld (The Adams Family, Men in Black) and executive produced by Lorne Michaels (30 Rock), Schmigadoon! combines the epic romance of Broadway musicals like Carousel with an ironic, modern sensibility. Its populated by a talented crop of actors too, including Portlandias Fred Armisen, Kristin Chenoweth, Tony award-nominee Ariana DeBose, and Aaron Tveit as bad-boy Danny Bailey (Les Misrables), in addition to guest appearances
from Martin Short and the brilliantly funny Jane Krakowski.

The service's launch calling card was The Morning Show , a drama starring Jennifer Aniston, Reese Witherspoon, and Steve Carell, which was complemented by See - an epic sci-fi drama starring Jason Momoa and Alfre Woodard, as well as M. Night Shyamalans horror series, Servant.
The service's surprise big breakout show so far has been the Jason Sudeikis comedy Ted Lasso , which follows an American football coach hired to coach a Premier League football team, which has earned an army of fans and a sizeable amount of gongs during this year's awards season.
The small but great library is set to grow at a steady pace - alongside incoming second seasons of Ted Lasso and The Morning Show, Apple TV Plus
looks to have a pretty strong-looking upcoming schedule of new exclusive content.
