All three were quietly picked up months ago, long before Apple TV+'s launch last week, according to The Hollywood Reporter. In fact, Dicksinson is already filming Season 2 in New York while For All Mankind began filming Season 2 last month. (The Morning Show was given a two-season order when it was picked up in 2017.) Last week, The Hollywood Reporter reported that Hilde Lysiak drama Home Before Dark and Little America were also renewed for Season 2. The Hollywood Reporter's Lesley Goldberg reports: "Sources close to Apple say all four series delivered 'millions' of viewers over launch weekend after all four shows debuted Nov. 1 ion the $5 per-month subscription service. (The service was free for seven days at launch.) Those same sources say Apple is thrilled with the early performance of all four shows. The average time spent on Apple's TV+ platform was well over an hour for each viewer, those same sources said. Viewership is said to have grown 'triple digits' from Friday to Saturday and again from Saturday to Sunday as first adopters returned over the weekend." Apple hasn't formally released data on viewership and Apple TV+ sign-ups.
