 The Studio (AppleTV+)  I started watching this recently and made it
through the first 4 episodes.  The series stars Seth Rogen as the new
promoted head of a film studio and follows his wacky adventures behind
the scenes.  The series is full of celebrity cameos.  It's sort of like
"The Player" or maybe that old Fox show, "Action."
 

 Does it bear any resemblance to “The Last of Sheila“ which “The Player“ Is
a direct rip off of?

 I never heard of "The Last of Sheila."  I'm going to have to track it
down and watch it.

 It’s a good film. With a great cast:
 James Mason (which is why I took the GF to see it in the theater)
James Coburn
Raquel Welch
Dyan Cannon. (I think this is the first time I saw her)
Richard Benjamin
Joan Hackett

Damn - I first read that as Buddy Hackett, which might have gotten to me to watch!  ;p

And beautiful horror star Yvonne Romain as “Sheila“
 Just watch says it’s on several services but apparently not free on any of
them. :-(
