    People here will probably soon start thinking I’m an Apple shill with all the comments I make, but IMO, TV+ has tons of great original content. Definitely recommend taking a peek at their shows. And the movies.

    Of course, nobody says you have to pay for it. Yarr!

      Apple+ has consistently been putting out some great shows. Severance is one of my favorite shows of the last few years, it’s frustrating that season 2 has taken so long to come back. Foundation is also great, despite it absolutely butchering the source material I still found it to be entertaining, especially the scenes with the Emperor clones. Ted Lasso is of course some fantastic comedy. Monarch was awesome, really enjoyed that Godzilla spin-off. There are probably a few others I can’t recall off the top of my head.

        I’m really enjoying Bad Monkey right now. Might be the first time I find Vince Vaughn relatable, but that might just be because I’m also a lazy sarcastic prick.

        The last days of Ptolemy Gray was a good one.

        I didn’t think I’d like The Morning Show, but I ended up getting pretty invested, as there’s a lot of office politics.

        Acapulco is funny and I love that in his rose-tinted glasses memories, the resort is literally pink.

        Honorable mentions: Shantaram, City on Fire, The Silo… And there have been others I’ve enjoyed. There was a period where I had a solid 5 shows to watch every week, all on Apple TV.
