Apple TV+ Hits San Diego Comic-Con

25 JULY 2022 - This year marked the first year at San Diego Comic-Con for Apple TV+. While the Cupertino-streamer did not make nearly as much noise as DC or Marvel, there was plenty of news for fans of the company’s offerings over the weekend.

Systems Go, Lights Green for Fourth Season of “For All Mankind”

The alt-history show “For All Mankind” has been picked up for a fourth season. Apple issued a press release Friday driving home the announcement, which was made at the show’s SDCC panel. Along with the release came a new description. According to that:

…“For All Mankind” explores what would have happened if the global space race had never ended. The series presents an aspirational world where NASA astronauts, engineers and their families find themselves in the center of extraordinary events seen through the prism of an alternate history timeline — a world in which the USSR beats the US to the moon.

Season-four production is set to begin next month. No word on a premier date.

The “Invasion” Continues

Further into the fantasy realm, a piece from Apple Insider has word on season two of “Invasion.” That’s the one that follows a global cast of characters in the wake of an alien invasion. According to the piece, “Season 2 will pick up months after the end of first season, and will explore the impact of the invasion on society and on a personal level.”

Apple Insider says “co-creator and writer Simon Kinberg equated the upcoming season as ‘Act 2 of a movie where [stuff] goes crazy…’” He didn’t say “stuff,” but you get the idea. Kinberg says the season will feature a “full-on action of the battle for Earth that [he] had always wanted for the show.” No word on when the season will premier.

“Mythic Quest” Gets Third Season Tease

If you’ve missed “Mythic Quest,” there was some things for you out of SDCC. They included details on the new season, comments from one of the show’s creators, and a season-three teaser. Season two ended with a couple of characters, Ian Grimm and Poppy Li, leaving the studio behind the video game “Mythic Quest” to start their own game studio. For reasons not explained in the teaser, the newly formed “GrimPop” studio is still tied in with its old coworkers. Another piece from Apple Insider explains that a bit, saying:

During San Diego Comic-Con, co-creator Megan Ganz explained that after the team split up in season 2, the third explored how the team could be brought back “in a way that seams organic.” The season also look[s] into "how difficult creative partnerships are.”

Season three of “Mythic Quest” hits Apple TV+ sometime this fall.

Last Chance to “See”

And finally today, though it is riding off into the sunset, “See” - one of the first four flagship shows for Apple TV+, got the Comic-Con treatment. A piece from Deadline says this season, the citizens of the post-apocalyptic future rediscover explosives and how to make them.

The third and final season of “See” premiers on Friday 26 August. Apple TV+ premiered a full trailer for the final season at Comic-Con. Check it out below.
