A second season of BBC Studios comedy "Trying" will debut on Apple TV+ in May, and the series has already been renewed for a third season.
Apple has announced that "Trying," its British comedy about fertility and adoption, is to begin its second season on May 14. Apple TV+ has also commissioned a third run.
Its eight-episode second season will premiere weekly on Fridays, and continues the story of a couple trying for children. In this second run, Nikki (Esther Smith) and Jason (Rafe Spall) are attempting adoption, and finding that being matched with a child is harder than they'd imagined.
"Trying" was the first scripted British comedy on Apple TV+. It comes from writer/creator Andy Wolton, and its producers have previously made shows such as "Derry Girls," "Motherland," and Catastrophe.

I am really pleased - this was probably my favourite Apple TV+ show so far. It started gently and I thought it was in in the same vein as Catastrophe but less successful. I was wrong. It's a very different beast. It is softer than Catastrophe but not worse for it. Really well done and beautifully scripted. Rafe Spall just wonderful it.
Great News, loved it (but I am English).
Derry Girls is an amazing show. I'm eagerly awaiting a new season!
I tried Trying once, but it somehow didn't grab my attention. I'll give it another go.
