Overview
- Episodes 1 and 2 premiered on Sept 9, 2026, and Apple will release one new episode each Wednesday until the six-episode season concludes on Oct 7, 2026.
- The series follows former detective Ian Ridley, now an emergency dispatcher, who becomes convinced a distressed teenage caller may be the daughter who vanished from his life years earlier.
- Reviewers singled out Patrick Brammall for a vulnerable lead turn and praised newcomer Chloe Jean Lourdes for a striking screen debut that anchors the story’s emotional center.
- Last Seen was filmed and set entirely in regional Victoria with local incentives and is presented as the first Apple TV series both made and shot in Australia.
- Critics noted the show trades genre gimmicks for character work and grief-driven conflict, a choice that commentators see as part of growing international interest in Australian-led scripted projects.
