Rob McElhenney and Charlie Day's Popular Apple TV+ Show Canceled Early, Will Get New Ending
Variety was first to report the news that Mythic Quest's fourth season, which aired its finale on March 26, will be its last. But the network is giving co-creators Charlie Day, Rob McElhenney, and Megan Ganz (all of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia fame) the chance to give the show's many fans a proper sendoff. An updated version of the season 4 finale, which will feel more like a true ending, will drop on the streaming service next week.'Endings are hard. But after four incredible seasons, Mythic Quest is coming to a close,' said McElhenney, Ganz, and David Hornsby—all executive producers on the show—in a statement.
'We're so proud of the show and the world we got to build, and deeply grateful to every cast and crew member who poured their heart into it,' the trio continued. 'To all our fans, thank you for playing with us. To our partners at Apple, thank you for believing in the vision from the very beginning. Because endings are hard, with Apple's blessing we made one final update to our last episode—so we could say goodbye, instead of just game over.'
The workplace comedy followed the lives of the employees of an often dysfunctional video game studio owned by Ian Grimm (McElhenney), the creator of a popular MMORPG titled, yep, Mythic Quest.
Though Apple does not share viewership records for its shows, Mythic Quest appears to have been a success. It has a near-perfect Rotten Tomatoes score of 97 percent, and recently released an 'expansion pack' spin-off series, Side Quest, that so far seems to have been warmly received.
Though Day co-created the series, it took until this most recent season for him to make an appearance on the series. With some extra time on their hands, perhaps this means fans will see the long-anticipated 17th season of Sunny they've been asking for.

Apple Acquires Sports Comedy Feature THE DINK Featuring All-Star Cast Led by Jake Johnson and Ben Stiller — GeekTyrant
Apple has picked up the rights to the sports comedy The Dink , directed by Josh Greenbaum (upcoming Spaceballs 2 ) and starring Jake Johnson ( New Girl ). Ben Stiller is on board as a producer and co-star, alongside an all-star cast that includes tennis champions Andy Roddick and John McEnroe, as well as Mary Steenburgen, Ed Harris, Chloe Fineman, Aaron Chen, Patton Oswalt, Chris Parnell and Christine Taylor. Details as to the release plan, including whether the film will hit theaters in addition to streaming, have not yet been disclosed. Written by Sean Clements, The Dink stars Johnson as a washed-up tennis pro who, desperate to save a struggling club and earn his father's respect, is compelled to break a sacred vow and do the unthinkable: play pickleball. The project reunites Apple with Stiller amid his work on Severance , the fan-favorite dystopian thriller series which recently landed 27 Emmy nominations — the most of any show this year — including Outstanding Drama series. Apple will also serve as the distributor for Stiller & Meara: Nothing is Lost , Stiller's intergenerational documentary passion project looking at the lives of his late comedy icon parents, Jerry Stiller and Anne Meara. Johnson, meanwhile, is set to star alongside Tatiana Maslany in Apple's upcoming comedic thriller series Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed . via: Deadline
