Kristen Wiig stars as Max Simmons in the new show, which is based on the book 'Mr. & Mrs. American Pie' by Juliet McDaniel. The all-star cast is rounded out by Laura Dern, Leslie Bibb, Allison Janney and singer Ricky Martin.

Part comedy, part drama, Palm Royale promises to combine the glitz and glamor of the Floridian high life with all the back stabbing and infighting that keeps people at the top.

So if this sounds like the show for you, here's how to watch Palm Royale.

How to watch Palm Royale

To watch Palm Royale, you'll need to be subscribed to Apple TV Plus, because the show was created as an original production for the streaming service. 

You can sign up for Apple TV Plus for $9.99 / £8.99 per month; unlike many other streaming services, Apple doesn't offer annual plans for its subscription. Just make sure you don't sign up for Apple TV Plus MLS, a separate streaming service that's just for Major League Soccer.
