Dysfunctional family dramas always set up for a great story, and that of the Delaneys in “Apples Never Fall” doesn’t disappoint. Adapted from Liane Moriarty’s latest best-selling novel by showrunner Melanie Marnich, the limited series centers on Annette Bening’s matriarch Joy Delaney, whose disappearance dredges up all kinds of secrets and past traumas within her family. Joy shares four children — Amy (Alison Brie), Troy (Jake Lacy), Logan (Conor Merrigan Turner) and Brooke (Essie Randles) — with her husband Stan (Sam Neill).
Of course, mysterious visitor Savannah (Georgia Flood) cannot be dismissed as a suspect in Joy’s absence. She stayed with the Delaneys for several months before Joy went missing. Several guest stars like Nate Mann and Quentin Plair make the show even more interesting.
