The new 10 episode season of sci-fi comedy ensemble The Big Door Prize, starring IFTA Winner Chris O’Dowd (Moone Boy), will premiere on Apple TV+ later this month with three new episodes, followed by one new episode every Wednesday until 12th June. The series follows a small town that is forever changed when a mysterious machine appears, promising to reveal everyone's true potential, which results in residents changing jobs, rethinking relationships and questioning long-held beliefs.
Based on M.O. Walsh’s novel, The Big Door Prize season two follows the residents of Deerfield as the Morpho machine readies them for the mysterious ‘next stage.’ As everyone’s potentials are exchanged for visions, new relationships form and new questions are asked.
