“You talk a lot.” “I misplaced my inner monologue and my wife around the same time.” That’s the sound of Jon Hamm swaggering on to Apple TV+ for new series Your Friends & Neighbors – and a new trailer gives us a first look.

The nine-episode series, created by bestselling author Jonathan Tropper (See, Warrior, Banshee), follows Andrew “Coop” Cooper, a hedge fund manager still grappling with his recent divorce. After being fired in disgrace, he resorts to stealing from his neighbours’ homes in the exceedingly affluent Vestment Village, only to discover that the secrets and affairs hidden behind those wealthy facades might be more dangerous than he ever imagined. Apple is clearly pleased with how the series has shaped up, because it’s already renewed the show for a second season.

Jon Hamm stars and exec-produces, with the cast also including Amanda Peet, Olivia Munn, Hoon Lee, Mark Tallman, Lena Hall, Aimee Carrero, Eunice Bae, Isabel Marie Gravitt and Donovan Colan.

You can see them in action on Friday 11th April, when the first two episodes arrive on Apple TV+, followed by an episode weekly until the finale on 30th May.

Apple TV+ has already renewed Your Friends & Neighbors for a second season.

The series, created by bestselling author Jonathan Tropper (See, Warrior, Banshee), follows Andrew “Coop” Cooper, a hedge fund manager still grappling with his recent divorce.

Apple is evidently sensing it has a Mad Men-esque show on its hands, as before the show has arrived on our screens in April, it has greenlit another season.

“I’ve had this show in my head for years, and making it has been a dream come true,” said creator and executive producer Jonathan Tropper. “It’s been an absolute thrill partnering with Jon Hamm, along with Connie Tavel and Craig Gillespie, to bring it to life. The support from everyone at Apple has been phenomenal, and the fact that they’ve ordered a second season before we aired our first is an incredible validation and a tribute to the work of this stellar cast, as well as the crew, writers, directors and producers who worked so hard to make this show what it is. We can’t wait for everyone to see it.”

Hailing from Apple Studios and produced by Tropper Ink, the series is showrun by Tropper, under his overall deal with Apple TV+. Other exec-producers include Connie Tavel and Craig Gillespie. Gillespie also directs episodes 101-102.

The nine-part first season arrives on Apple TV+ on Friday 11th April 2025, with the first two episodes arriving together, followed by episodes weekly until the finale on 30th May.
