“High Desert” follows Peggy (Patricia Arquette), an on-again-off-again addict who decides to make a new start after the death of her beloved mother, with whom she lived in the small desert town of Yucca Valley, California, and makes a life-changing decision to become a private investigator.
Arquette herself made the announcement Sunday.
While funny, High Desert wasn’t a feel-good comedy. It centered on an occasional drug addict played by Arquette who becomes a private investigator in a small desert town.
The series pulled in a 70% critics approval rating on the review-aggregation site Rotten Tomatoes, while audiences gave it a 79% approval rating.
But that apparently wasn’t enough for Apple TV+.
A lot of you have asked about High Desert and if there was going to be a second season so I just wanted to let you know we just found out that it won’t be coming back. So that’s a sad bummer for all of us… It stinks.
