Apple TV’s musical comedy earned a loyal following, but was canceled after two seasons. Now though, a Broadway spinoff has proven a hit and earned significant acclaim, as evidenced by today’s Tony nominations. And that could be good news for a prospective season 3 of Schmigadoon! on Apple TV.

Today the Tony Awards announced nominees for Broadway’s biggest awards of the year. And Schmigadoon! , including Best Musical.

Those 12 nominations lead all other shows, save for The Lost Boys which also scored 12 nods.

It’s the latest evidence of Schmigadoon!’s success beyond the canceled Apple TV series.

And it provides fresh hope that Apple might choose to revive the show.

Cinco Paul, creator of Apple TV’s Schmigadoon! show and also the stage spinoff, previously shared that season 3 of Schmigadoon! has already been written. From a when Apple canceled the series in 2024:

I am sad to share that Apple will not be moving forward with season 3 of Schmigadoon! The season is written (including 25 new songs), but we unfortunately won’t be making it. […]

Paul then last year that the show could be revived at some point:

There have been some talks about it. Most of the movement is inside my heart, but I’m not giving up. I’m really proud of the work that all of us in the writers’ room did, and I think the fans would really love it. Take heart in the fact that I have not given up and there are other people that are fans of the show who would also love to see that happen. You just never know; life is long.

If Schmigadoon! continues being successful on Broadway, and even comes away with the Best Musical award at this year’s Tony’s ceremony, Apple would have more reason than ever to bring the series back.

It may largely be wishcasting at this point, but I know I’m rooting for the Broadway show’s success because I’d love to see season 3 of Schmigadoon! one day.
