Reception
Apples Never Fall received mixed reviews from critics: 46% on Rotten Tomatoes (5.9/10 average) and 54/100 on Metacritic. Rotten Tomatoes’ critics consensus notes the show has “the seed of a strong series… thanks to its outstanding cast and intriguing hook, but those promising elements can’t quite polish up a rote story.” Several outlets, including Rolling Stone, grouped it among a wave of star-studded, awards-season-timed limited series; the cast’s performances — particularly from Annette Bening, Sam Neill, Alison Brie, and Jake Lacy — were more consistently praised than the mystery plotting itself. Ahead of the actual Emmy nominations, some outlets speculated the cast could contend for nominations, though we could not independently verify any confirmed nominations the series received.
Executive producer David Heyman said, “I was captivated from the moment I began reading Apples Never Fall. Liane Moriarty has once again created a compulsively complicated and messy family dynamic… but somehow does it all with biting wit, humor and ultimately hope.”
The main cast of the series is Annette Bening as Joy Delaney, Sam Neill as Stan Delaney, Alison Brie as Amy Delaney, Jake Lacy as Troy Delaney, Georgia Flood as Savannah, Conor Merrigan Turner as Logan Delaney, and Essie Randles as Brooke Delaney.
