Apple TV+ 'Mythic Quest' picked up through season 4

Charlotte Nicdao and Rob McElhenney in "Mythic Quest" season two, premiering May 7 on Apple TV+.

Rob McElhenney, and two guest stars, have announced that "Mythic Quest" will run for at least two more seasons, with the next season arriving at some point in 2022.

The Tweet announcing the series features Sir Anthony Hopkins, and "Ron" McElhenney. Jason Sudeikis from Apple TV+ "Ted Lasso" made an appearance at the end of the tweet as well, talking to Hopkins.

"Mythic Quest" season 3 will debut in 2022, says the tweet. Additionally, it will come "after Ted Lasso season 2" — which has already aired — but "before Ted Lasso season 3."

"Mythic Quest" is centered around a team of video game developers as they navigate the challenges of running a popular video game. The series focuses on interpersonal relationships in the office place, gaming culture, and the inherent difficulties of creative workspaces.

Apple debuted the second season of the show on May 7. the season saw several guest stars appearing in the show, including Hopkins, as well as told the tale of a difficult development cycle for the expansion of the titular game.

The second season followed a lengthy production delay caused by COVID-19 outbreaks. A special episode was also shot as a mid-break extra, one that was written, filmed, and edited entirely on iPhones.

That was hilarious.

Like most shows it took a few episodes to find its footing, then got into a nice groove. S2 offered character development and some actual really touching moments (Longbottom's character stole the show/season IMO). Looking forward to some more.

That is great news.  Love the show.

The Pandemic special episode was pitch-perfect and very moving for where we all were a few months into the remote-work revolution.

I love this show but thought it had a great ending point at the end of last season. Didn’t think it would continue or require more.

I hope they can pick it up from there without messing it up.

Agree, it should have ended on that piquant note.

It would be better to do an entirely new project.
