Apple’s synopsis for the upcoming series reads: “Inspired by true events and an original podcast of the same name, ‘The Shrink Next Door’ follows the decades-long manipulation and exploitation by psychiatrist Dr. Isaac ‘Ike’ Herschkopf (Rudd) and his longtime patient Martin ‘Marty’ Markowitz (Ferrell). Dr. Ike is accompanied by his unsuspecting wife Bonnie Herschkopf (Wilson) and though Marty may be defenseless against Dr. Ike enticing offerings, his hard-headed sister Phyllis (Hahn) is not.” Related New Movies: Release Calendar for December 23, Plus Where to Watch the Latest Films Remember When Content Was King? 2022 Was the Year Streaming Dreams Died Related Oscars 2023: ‘Everything Everywhere,’ ‘Nope’ Among Early Favorites Influential Awards Bodies Reshape 2023 Best Documentary Feature Race
