In an era where connectivity has almost taken over communication, Apple TV’s latest series, “Still Up,” tells a compelling story about two best friends united not by their waking hours but by their shared insomnia experiences. This upcoming show promises to be a fresh take on relationships, exploring the uncharted territory of sleeplessness and its impact on human connection.
“Still Up” introduces us to Lisa and Danny, two characters who find themselves shackled by the chains of sleeplessness. The series opens by showing boxes of sleeping pills and how insomnia begins to take over their minds. Instead of becoming frustrated by the thoughts of staying awake, it actually deepens the friendship between the two. Those long nights turn into exploring the possibilities of digital connection, just one click away.
Later in the season, viewers are taken on a rollercoaster ride of emotions, navigating the difference between reality and the surreal. As Lisa and Danny continue through their sleepless nights, they encounter a series of wonderfully weird surprises that challenge their perspectives on life, friendship, and the world around them.
Each night becomes an opportunity for discovery as the boundaries between their waking lives and the realm of dreams blur. From late-night city escapades to whimsical encounters with quirky characters, the series is set to offer an enthralling blend of drama, humor, and magical realism. This intriguing narrative approach not only keeps the audience engaged but also mirrors the unpredictable nature of both insomnia and the human experience.
As the release date of “Still Up” approaches, excitement is building among viewers like me, who are eager to witness how insomnia can be transformed from an isolating experience into a beautiful journey of friendship and discovery. “Still Up” offers a refreshing perspective—one that embraces the unexpected, celebrates the unusual, and cherishes the bonds that form in the most unlikely of circumstances. So, be prepared to stay up a little later than usual and embark on this enchanting journey with Lisa and Danny as they navigate a world of wonder, weirdness, and profound connection.
The new eight-episode series will premiere on Apple TV+ globally on Friday, September 22. Starring Antonia Thomas (“The Good Doctor,” “Small Axe,” “Lovesick”) and Craig Roberts (“Red Oaks,” “Submarine“), “Still Up” will debut with the first three episodes, followed weekly by one episode every Friday through October 27.
