Lessons in Chemistry is a production of Apple Studios and Aggregate Films. Fans are eagerly anticipating the release of this exciting new series on Apple TV+.

“Set in the early 1950s, it follows Elizabeth Zott , whose dream of being a scientist is put on hold in a society deeming that women belong in the domestic sphere, not the professional one,” reads the synopsis. “When Elizabeth finds herself pregnant, alone and fired from her lab, she musters the ingenuity only a single mother has. She accepts a job as a host on a TV cooking show, and sets out to teach a nation of overlooked housewives – and the men who are suddenly listening – a lot more than recipes … all the while craving a return to her true love: science.”
