MARGOT'S GOT MONEY TROUBLES: STORY SYNOPSIS

Because Margo’s Got Money Troubles is based on a novel, the series is expected to largely follow the book’s plot.

In the novel, Margo Millet (Fanning) is the daughter of Shyanne (Pfeiffer), a former Hooters waitress, and Jinx (Offerman), an ex-pro wrestler who she’s been estranged from.

After becoming pregnant by her English teacher Mark (Angarano), Margo keeps the baby but quickly finds herself struggling financially as she suddenly becomes unemployed and overwhelmed by debt.

When Jinx unexpectedly re-enters her life and asks to move in, Margo agrees. Desperate for income, she turns to OnlyFans, using advice drawn from her father’s wrestling days.

WILL THERE BE MORE SEASON OF MARGOT'S GOT MONEY TROUBLES?

Probably not. All current press materials describe Margo’s Got Money Troubles as an 8 episode limited series. And there’s been no indication from Apple TV+ or the team behind it that additional seasons are planned. That said, whether the entire novel is fully adapted, and how the series is received, could influence future decisions.
