We recently subscribed to AppleTV+ (you get a pretty decent trial from just download the app on a playstation by the way). And are looking for exclusives to watch on the service. Of course everyone recommends Ted Lasso and we have started that. My wife, has already watched through “The Morning Show” and liked it.
Especially looking for good movie suggestions as those don’t require as much of a time investment for me.
What does everyone on Lemmy watch on the service?
Ted Lasso, Silo, Invasion, Servant, Station 11, Slow Horses, For All Mankind, Foundation, Severance, The Last Thing He Told Me, Liaison, See, Hello Tomorrow!, Mythic Quest, Schmigadoon!, Home Before Dark.
Honestly, Apple has been the closest to a can’t-miss studio/production company over the last few years, for me and my wife.
Severance gets a lot of talk, which is well deserved, but I also second Slow Horses because I feel like I never hear about it and it’s also good (through Season 1 at least, that’s all I’ve watched so far).
The Morning Show is also pretty good.
Still salty Hello Tomorrow! doesn’t seem to get a season two.
Honestly, most stuff on AppleTV+ is pretty good right now. If something is in a genre that you like, then just click on it and jump in.
I like sci fi, and I’ve really enjoyed For All Man Kind, Silo, Severance, and Foundation.
So many good shows. All of these, but also: Slow Horses, Bad Sisters, Schmigadoon, and Shrinking.
I really enjoyed Monarch.
Severance, For All Mankind (especially the first 2 season), Foundation is good (just don’t go in expecting a straight book adaptation).
Severance is the best show on there in my opinion. It’s the most wild and “new” feeling show. Something I’d never seen before type of stuff.
My dark horse pick for one of the best comedies on there is a show called Trying. It’s about a couple trying to adopt a child. I personally have never wanted kids, but this show has a ton of heart and it’s really funny. No one talks about it, but I love it.
Defending Jacob is a pretty good show about a family who has a kid that may or may not have done a pretty terrible crime. Chris Evans stars as an attorney caught up in the case. Does he follow the law or defend his son?
If you have a good TV, some of the nature docs are good, too. There’s one narrated by Paul Rudd about tiny animals, and it’s super pretty.
