As a lover of Broadway and Saturday Night Live, I was instantly drawn to Schmigadoon! The series is led by Cecily Strong and Keegan-Michael Key as Melissa and Josh, both medical professionals who have been married for years, but they’re hitting a bit of a rough patch. They head off to a couples retreat in the middle of the woods to reconnect, but after crossing a bridge, they find themselves in the middle of an old timey town called Schmigadoon. Josh is extremely skeptical of the townspeople, but Melissa is willing to play along when everyone bursts into song and dance as the town is a movie musical. The only way out of Schmigadoon is for Melissa and Josh to reconnect and fall in love all over again. Coming to AppleTV+ July 16
