This week, we’re joined by Emmy-nominated writer, producer, and showrunner Abe Sylvia (George & Tammy, The Eyes of Tammy Faye) to talk about his dazzling Apple TV+ comedy, Palm Royale.Set in 1969 Palm Beach, Palm Royale follows the ambitious and endlessly charming Maxine Simmons — played by Kristen Wiig — as she schemes her way into the most exclusive social circles in America. With a cast that includes Laura Dern, Allison Janney, and Carol Burnett, the series blends satire, style, and heart into a vivid exploration of ambition, class, and reinvention.Abe opens up about crafting the show’s golden-era glamour, building complex women who wield charm as power, and how Palm Royale uses comedy to expose the social hierarchies that still shape our world today.From couture to chaos, Palm Royale is as funny as it is fearless — and Abe Sylvia gives us a front-row seat to how it all came together.
