Widows bay is the best television in years and it’s not even close

Kinda sad that Prime with commercials is still better than most anything on Netflix ngl

I wanna watch widows bay still but genuinely what was the last thing on Netflix that’s genuinely worth watching? Disney had Andor for a bit before they cut that short

AMC and FX are good as well

Facts

i love their peanuts shows

You watch that Last Seen show? It's excellent.

the Apple product placement is extreme at times

as someone who drank super heavily, this can definitely take me out of it if your characters aren't Going Through It like Mad Men characters lol

Apple TV made more Fraggle Rock there is no contest

Especially if you like Sci Fi shows.

Dropout.tv is also good, perhaps 🤷

I love how they seem to be throwing so much money into actual weird ideas even though I don't know anyone who actually subscribe to apple TV 😭

Nah BBC is trash now

Apple TV is like let's spend a lot of money making the best TV shows possible, using extremely bankable stars, and then also let's not market any of them AT ALL except maybe Ted Lasso and that only the later seasons after it became popular on its own.

I just wish they spent more than the quarters they scrounged up from their couch cushions on advertising

Funded by children in slavery making their products.

every competitor is just mass producing spaghetti slop to see what sticks and focusing more on securing the rights to what already exists for streaming services to rotate around and circle jerk with

Adult daycare

The post doesn't say "Apple TV is the only service producing high budget dramas worth anything"

I like pancakes, does that mean I hate waffles?

OK but have you seen Dimension 20: Fantasy High?

Still looking at them sideways for that rookie shit.

Shrinking is fairly inclusive. The gay best friend is more than just a side character. While it does feel like a caricature at times, the character does have depth and nuance.

s4 of ted lasso is full of a bunch of lesbians at least! and pluribus has a lesbian lead

And yet I want it to die all the same.

i feel bad for sports fans because now that shit's spread across like four different streaming services

No it's not, it's just that Apple TV has been giving an insane amount of money to produce high quality shows (realistically it's probably to monopolize the streaming market at a time where no one is willing to pay for multiple services)

say what you will about apple, but it does seem like they’re just taking a loss here because they want to make art.

Someone hasn't watched The Floor

For better or worse I feel this way about Amazon, reacher, Bosch, night manager. Others not close. It shouldnt be like this though

Brit Box! 👍

It's one of the big reasons why I'm genuinely excited for the Mistborn movies and Stormlight show

For all mankind and severance are amazing

Hbo?

Haven’t watched the full season yet, but the first episode of season nine was phoned in like whoa

I watched a Netflix movie last night that was so, so bad

I agree, but just wish they weren’t bumping up the monthly cost in October by $2 to $14.99. How is this legal?

Fucking pretty good with HBO aswell tbh

They made their transaction logo with traditional methods 😭❤️❤️❤️ youtu.be/2bJQfUHDZsM?...

Primal and common side effects arent apple tv

And it's so cheap!

I distinctly asked him to fold it but Jeremy irons!

All the Peanuts cartoons too.

Agreed. It shows my favorite new sport. Formula 1

Dude, for me, it’s either Apple or Amazon and that’s fucked up because those are like.. tech companies dog.

Yeah just need Sopranos and a few other HBO box sets I can just cancel that. Oh but Last Week Tonight, well at least most of that goes on youtube.

PBS masterpiece streaming is wonderful.

I should swap out a service for that, there's so many shows I need to catch up on.

Oh, and NO commercials!

The worst is Netflix. OMG the crap they show on there.

That's my next watch!

...HBO?

You can usually get a Black Friday deal for a full year. Right now I’m paying $2.99 a month for HBO with ads

Pirating is the best it's been.

I wish FX would get off the Ryan Murphy roller coaster.

Everything from the writing to the acting to the sweeping cinematography is off the charts. They came to play. They came to win

it’s true, it’s the only service I watch these days

I’m watching Ted Lasso as I read that. 👍

Widow's Bay!

An episode so good it was the one she submitted to win her Emmy

I see what you did there

Apple does SciFi well. Silo gets better every season.

So much floats under the radar too. Lady in The Water was a decent book but the series on Apple TV was excellent

Love TedLasso! #believe

apple is the only company in silicon valley still producing anything worth paying for. basically everything they make except the iPhone is a great value compared to the rest of the market which is something i never would have thought i'd be saying 10 years ago

It just got to these parts, and they're bundling it with all iCloud+ accounts, so I'm currently paying... 0.99 EUR.

It’s so wild how far hbo has fallen. And even Apple’s stuff is mostly just ok.

That should be the early 1980s.

Meanwhile the way I know a show is bad is it's branded prime original

I just remember laughing my ass off the last 5 minutes of the finale because of how stupid it was (though I was pretty high at the time)

The Dink is excellent, I cannot speak for any of their other movies but The Dink is great.

I thought CODA was amazing - one of my favourite movies that year.

and we have to wait two years between seasons of our favorite shows

But British streaming services have the best crime dramas, bar none.

Uh Amazon Prime? Fallout and Hazbin Hotel?

The Pit from HBO has been extremely good so far. Very tense, down to earth depiction of the modern horrors of the underfunded medical world

No shitty adverts either

I did quite enjoy the David Attenborough dinosaur doc

there's a lot on apple I still gotta see, especially with the neuromancer adaptation coming out soon

And the only one you can rely on not to cancel the show after the first chapter. Netflix and Prime are parasites on art and joy

Didn't even know Maslany was in that show. I hope they gave her something good to do, she's great in everything.

I love Apple TV. So many great shows and no commercials. It is my favorite streaming service. My favorite show is Pachinko. Beautiful story and scenery.

They do have some good shows.

They are producing a LOT of content and most of it is not very good. It's all terribly expensive. Their top content might be head and shoulders above other services but on average, Netflix is still the better entertainment value.

was just awe struck during those last two episodes. maybe the best build up to massive reveals and twists i’ve seen in awhile

I did a complete 180 on Alexandria Riley’s performance I will say, however, that at some point they have to give us an antagonist who doesn’t have a redemption arc. Give me somebody to hate!

it's lovely seeing her play a character who doesn't whisper all the time!

*fires up Extrapolations, Palm Royale, The Changeling, Hello Tomorrow, Liaison, Shantaram, and The Mosquito Coast You sure about that?

how is that so

Amazing

I agree 100%

I ripped through all seasons of Trying - nice little show

SO TRUE!!!!!!!

Have they made their website usable yet? Last time I was subscribed it was buffering like crazy and lagging on every reload. Trillion dollar company by the way.
