Today, Apple TV debuted the official trailer for the fifth season of the beloved animated kids and family series "Stillwater." The Peabody and Daytime Emmy Award-winning series returns with five episodes on Friday, August 21, 2026. Based on the bestselling Scholastic "Zen" book series by Jon J Muth, "Stillwater" follows a wise panda who teaches three young siblings about the world and each other. The series centers on siblings Karl (Judah Mackey), Addy (Eva Ariel Binder) and Michael (Tucker Chandler), who encounter everyday challenges - big and small - which sometimes feel insurmountable. Fortunately for the three siblings, they have Stillwater (James Sie), a wise panda, as their next-door neighbor. Through his example, stories and gentle humor, Stillwater teaches the children the concept of mindfulness while offering them a deeper understanding of their feelings and tools to help them face their own day-to-day challenges. "Stillwater" is produced for Apple TV by Gaumont and Scholastic Entertainment.

Take a deep breath and embrace your inner peace by embarking on a fun adventure with the first four seasons of "Stillwater," available on Apple TV. Through breathing exercises, mindful moments and simple everyday practices, this uplifting series invites you and your family to discover your own zen through each episode.
