Jason Segel and Harrison Ford headline the comedy-drama series Shrinking, which follows a grieving therapist named Jimmy Laird as he pushes boundaries by intervening directly in his patients’ lives. Developed by Segel alongside Bill Lawrence and Brett Goldstein, the show explores the consequences of Jimmy’s unorthodox approach.
The series centers on Jimmy, who begins disregarding professional guidelines to offer blunt advice to his clients. This leads to significant disruptions in their lives—and his own. The ensemble cast features Jessica Williams, Luke Tennie, Michael Urie, Lukita Maxwell, Christa Miller, and Ted McGinley. Season three introduces fresh faces like Jeff Daniels and Michael J. Fox.
Shrinking season three launched on January 28 on Apple TV+, with the season finale scheduled for April 8, 2026.
