Apple has debuted the first trailer for "Mythic Quest: Raven's Banquet," a comedy focused on the trials and tribulations of creating video games, giving us a sneak peek at what awaits in February.




The two minute long trailer sets the tone for Apple's upcoming series, "Mythic Quest: Raven's Banquet." It gives viewers a glimpse into what characters and scenarios will be breached in the first season of the series, such as dealing with a megalomaniacal boss, creative challenges, and office politics. "Mythic Quest" will debut on February 7.





"Mythic Quest: Raven's Banquet" is centered around a team of video game developers as they navigate the challenges of running a popular video game. The show is being exclusively released to Apple's Apple TV+.

The show is written by Rob McElhenney and Charlie Day, known for their work on "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia." McElhenney will star as the fictional company's creative director.

Others cast include F. Murray Abraham ("The Grand Budapest Hotel", "Star Trek: Insurrection,") Danny Pudi ("Community,") Imani Hakim ("Everybody Hates Chris,") Charlotte Nicdao ("A gURLs wURLd,") David Hornsby ("It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia,") Ashly Burch ("Horizon Zero Dawn," "Borderlands,") and Jessie Ennis ("Hits.")

The show is produced by McElhenney and Day, alongside staffers from Ubisoft Film & Television, 3Darts, and Lions Gate.

The shows first season will consist of nine, half-hour long episodes.

"Mythic Quest" is now the second show Apple has renewed for a second season prior to its debut. The first was Apple's "Little America."

Anyone interested in watching the series will need a subscription to Apple TV+. Customers who purchased an iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple TV and iPod touch after Sept. 10, 2019, are for a limited time eligible for a year of free Apple TV.

    In today’s lesson in foreign accents, Entropy learns that Americans pronounce Ian as I-On, rather than its English E-An.

    /annoying third person.

    No, we Americans say E-an, too. It's probably part of the guy's annoying character.

    Yet another wish-fulfillment show by writers who think genius and assholery go together, e.g. House, Sherlock, etc. Not saying they're bad, but I always wonder whether trying to combine the two works as well for them in real life as the writers want it to.

    Genius? Looks more like hubris and game company CEO going together, which if you’ve been paying attention, is actually a real life thing.

    The british Sherlock show was awesome. His character is a highly functioning sociopath.

    I thought the concept of the show sounded juvenile but having watched the trailer, I now see it could be a great send up of egocentric internet culture.  It looks like I will be tuning in.

    RIP Silicon Valley. Hopefully this show will fill its shoes a bit.
