Today at the 2023 Winter Television Critics Association press tour, Apple TV+ debuted a first look and unveiled the premiere date for the highly anticipated second season of its acclaimed, hit, murder mystery comedy series “The Afterparty.” From Academy Award winners Chris Miller and Phil Lord, the 10-episode second season of “The Afterparty” will make its global debut with the first two episodes on Friday, April 28, followed by one new episode premiering weekly every Friday, culminating in the season finale set for June 23, 2023.
Created by Miller, each episode of “The Afterparty” explores a different character’s account of one fateful evening, all told through the lens of popular film genres and unique visuals to match the storyteller’s perspective.
