Seven episodes of Palm Royale Season 2 are available on Apple TV ever since its premiere a month ago. This season follows the aftermath of Maxine's public breakdown in the season 1 finale. The ongoing season has followed Maxine's attempts to regain her reputation. But we also know that she will uncover the dark side of Palm Beach in Palm Royale Season 2. It begins with Maxine being:

“Left a social pariah after a scandalous public breakdown. She’ll have to draw on her deep well of cleverness and cunning to prove once and for all that not only does she belong, but she just might have what it takes to rule this town. Along the way, she will uncover untold truths and finally understand what this town is truly built on… secrets, lies, and the occasional felony.”

The highlight of this acclaimed Apple TV is its needledrops, and the current season reflects that.

What do we know about season 2?

Maxine suffered a public breakdown in the season 1 finale. She reveals dark truths about herself and the attendees, burning bridges. Therefore, we see her temporarily institutionalized in the season 2 premiere. Palm Royale creator and Showrunner Abe Sylvia addressed this plotline in The Hollywood Reporter interview last month.

The Hollywood Reporter interviewer asked Sylvia what obstacles Maxine would be against in the ongoing season. To this, the showrunner teased:

"She’s up against the world. This is why she’s such an incredibly relatable character, particularly to women. The whole season is really a tribute to the ways in which women have to work outside the system to get anywhere. Of course, on our show, is writ large, but we have the metaphor of the tunnels, and they have to work through their husbands. Certainly in this political climate as well, being able to do something with a wink of satire towards the insurmountable obstacles that are put in a woman’s path if she has any ambition or a dream for herself, and how that hasn’t changed. Our show is set in 1969, and we all saw that election. We were shooting this show during the [Trump] election and the whole season is a parable for right now. In our trailer, that’s why we use the Shirley Bassey song “History Repeating.” You may think you’re watching a throwback, but the more things change, the more they stay the same."

Seven episodes of Palm Royale Season 2 are streaming on Apple TV.
