Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed episode release dates: the full Apple TV+ schedule from premiere to finale
Apple TV+ likes to stretch its best mysteries across two months of Wednesdays, and its dark comic thriller starring Tatiana Maslany is no exception. Whether you're planning your viewing or working out how long you'll need to dodge spoilers, here's the complete Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed release schedule — all 10 episodes.
The full episode schedule
The season opened with a double premiere, then settled into one episode per week:
- Episodes 1 & 2 — Wednesday 20 May 2026 (double-episode premiere)
- Episode 3 — 27 May 2026
- Episode 4 — 3 June 2026
- Episode 5 — 10 June 2026
- Episode 6 — 17 June 2026
- Episode 7 — 24 June 2026
- Episode 8 — 1 July 2026
- Episode 9, "Erroneous" — 8 July 2026
- Episode 10, "Queens" — the finale — 15 July 2026
New episodes officially land at midnight Pacific time — 8am in the UK — though Apple has a habit of quietly putting them up the evening before, around 9pm Eastern on the Tuesday. Worth checking early if you're impatient.
What's the show about?
Maslany plays Paula Saunders, a divorced New York fact checker stuck in a bruising custody battle, who vents her troubles to Trevor, a webcam performer she pays to listen. One night Trevor is beaten and kidnapped live on camera — and when he turns up dead, Paula is dragged into a spiral of blackmail, murder, and, somehow, youth soccer.
The series was created by David J. Rosen and directed by David Gordon Green, with a cast that includes Jake Johnson, Dolly de Leon, Jon Michael Hill, Brandon Flynn, and Murray Bartlett.
The reviews have been kind, too:
The A.V. Club called the series "well-paced, wonderfully performed, and unpredictable" in its May 2026 review.
Will there be a season 2?
Nothing has been announced as of July 2026. Apple typically waits until after a finale airs to confirm renewals, so any decision is likely to follow the 15 July ending. The season was conceived as a complete 10-episode story, so expect resolution either way.
