” returned to Apple TV+ Wednesday, audiences will see some new faces and places. Season 2 of the Emmy-winning series ended with rising PR star Keeley Jones striking out on her own, preparing to launch her own firm. Meanwhile, Nate “the Great” Shelley joined the Dark Side, as head coach of Rupert Mannion’s newly acquired football club, West Ham.

“Nothing jumps out,” Cripps adds. “It’s all very muted and beautiful.” That type of sameness goes against Keeley’s nature, and will come into play as the season progresses. Nate’s descent into darkness last season offered a lot of comparisons to Darth Vader and “The Empire Strikes Back,” so it is only fitting that when he is summoned to Rupert’s office, high above the football pitch, it bears a striking resemblance to the Emperor’s throne room on the Death Star in “Return of the Jedi.”
