Updated 6/06/18: Variety says that Apple has ordered a straight-to-series run of a half-hour comedy/drama called Little Voices with executive producers J.J. Abrams and Sara Bareilles.
Apple is said to be spending as much as $1 billion over the course of 2018 on original TV programming. That’s a lot of TV! It’s not the $8 billion Netflix is going to spend, but it’s still a huge commitment.
