Palm Royale 2024 Tv Series Review Trailer

 Before the era of Instagram stories and TikTok, gossip magazines and television served as conduits for everyday people to feel connected to the glamorous and wealthy. While few dare to enter elite circles, some boldly demand their place at the table, as exemplified by “Palm Royale.” 

Adapted from the novel “Mr. & Mrs. American Pie” by Abe Sylvia for Apple TV+, this comedy set in the 1960s introduces us to Maxine Simmons (played impeccably by Kristen Wiig), a blonde transplant to Palm Beach determined to carve out a luxurious existence, even if it requires flexing. a little the rules. Wildly outrageous and entertaining, “Palm Royale” suggests that pursuing one's desires with a touch of hope can produce unexpected results.

Creators: Abe Sylvia
Star: Kristen Wiig, Ricky Martin, Josh Lucas

Set in the summer of 1969 at the exclusive Palm Royale country club in Palm Beach, the series begins with Maxine, lacking an invitation and funds for the considerable initiation fee, boldly infiltrating the establishment she has long admired. Despite her unconventional methods and flashy clothing, she quickly discovers the club's unwelcoming atmosphere.



Within the Palm Royale hierarchy reigns Norma Delacore (played by Carol Burnett), Maxine's comatose aunt-in-law who has dominated Palm Beach for nearly five decades. Competing for Norma's throne is the formidable Evelyn Rollins (a captivating Allison Janney), anxiously anticipating the demise of her wealthy husband Skeet. Also in the mix is wealthy socialite Dinah Donahue (Leslie Bibb), eager to oust Evelyn from her position. Although these women are not allies, they are united in their efforts to make Maxine feel unwelcome in her town.



Maxine, a former Tennessee pageant queen married to a naïve pilot named Douglas (played by Josh Lucas), deftly navigates the complexities of white womanhood, harnessing misogyny and patriarchy to her advantage. Despite her innocence, her desire for a luxurious life propels her forward, even in the face of secrets, blackmail, and unexpected obstacles. Along her journey, Maxine forms unlikely alliances with Linda Shaw (Laura Dern), a feminist activist, and Robert (Ricky Martin), a skilled waiter.


“Palm Royale” is a pastel satire full of absurd charity events, pill parties and closets full of skeletons, often exposed in the city's gossip newspaper, “The Shiny Sheet.” Amid the chaos, Maxine relentlessly pursues Norma's coveted rolodex, the key to organizing the prestigious Beach Ball and achieving her aspirations.


While “Palm Royale” radiates brightness and color, its excessive content, including a whale, assassination attempts, and random appearances by crowned princes, underscores the need for tighter editing. The ten episodes of the series are overstuffed, leaving viewers dizzy by the ending. Nonetheless, Maxine's journey is captivating and she reminds audiences of the allure of materialistic dreams and the determination needed to pursue them.


Ultimately, “Palm Royale” celebrates the audacity of people like Maxine, who dare to define her worth and pursue her desires without apology. Through her adventures, viewers enjoy a pleasant and joyful experience, supporting her every step of the way. After all, there is something exhilarating about a woman who knows her worth and boldly claims what she deserves.
