Apple TV+ heralded the birth of a new season of popular family comedy Trying with a season 4 trailer Tuesday. It charmingly shows everyone getting older as the London family faces life’s little problems, including those adopted kids. After all, six years have passed in the story since season three’s action. They’re “older not wiser,” according to the show’s tagline.
The trailer is not exactly uncontrollably laughing-out-loud funny. But, like the show, its moments of wry humor will draw smiles and a chuckle or two. The fourth season debuts May 22 on Apple TV+.
Life’s little problems continue in Trying season 4 trailer
Apple TV+ said Tuesday the “beloved series” returns for season four’s eight episodes starting Wednesday, May 22, with the first two episodes. The show stars BAFTA Award nominee Esther Smith and SAG Award nominee Rafe Spall.
Here’s how the streamer describes the new season:
In this exciting new season, we fast-forward six years to discover that Nikki (Smith) and Jason (Spall) are experienced adopters having built a lovely little nuclear family, enriched by an extraordinary support network.
However, as their teenage daughter, Princess (Scarlett Rayner), starts to yearn for a connection with her birth mother, Nikki and Jason find themselves confronted with the ultimate test of their parenting skills.
And notably, the trailer and the show include new music:
The trailer features the brand new single from London-based pop star BEKA, titled “Forever.” BEKA helms this season’s soundtrack with original songs set to debut in each episode. She follows Maisie Peters and Bear’s Den who wrote and performed the soundtracks for Trying season two and season three, respectively.
