High Desert won’t be returning for a second season on Apple TV+, according to Patricia Arquette, who stars in the show.
The actress, who portrays Peggy on the series, told her fans about the unfortunate news in a video posted to Instagram on Saturday. The caption reads: “It stinks.”
“A lot of you have asked about High Desert and if there was going to be a second season, so I just wanted to let you know that we just found out that we won’t be coming back,” Arquette said. “That’s a sad bummer for all of us.”
She then proceeded to thank the show’s writers, actors and the entire crew. “We just had a blast,” she added. “Thanks to you guys for watching. You can’t win them all.”
The scripted comedy was executive produced by Ben Stiller and centers on a former addict who decides to change her path after the death of her mother, becoming a private investigator. In addition to Arquette, the freshman series also starred Brad Garrett, Weruche Opia, Bernadette Peters, Rupert Friend and Matt Dillon.
“We are all disappointed,” said Stiller on Twitter. “Our entire #HighDesert cast was amazing and to all our fans, thank you for embracing this show.”
“I LOVE Patricia Arquette, who gave an awards worthy performance,” he continued. “While we wish @AppleTV had stuck with it, we’re grateful they made it and it is on the service. And unlike other streamers these days I’m told they will not be removing any shows. So you can enjoy the first season in perpetuity. And feel free to let them know you want more!!”
High Desert hails from creators Nancy Fichman, Katie Ford and Jennifer Hoppe, and aired its final episode on June 21.
