Reportedly high budget has brought Apple TV+ a lot of prestige, but not a lot of viewers.
I’ve watched a few things. Fantastic sets and production quality. Terrible acting and writing.
I keep seeing that they have some good science fiction shows and meaning to sign up. I just haven’t. Maybe when work buys me a new phone. I seem to remember a free couple of months last phone. I just didn’t get around to it.
I really enjoy The Foundation. It almost gives you whiplash by switching between slow burn and intense action. But I do not mean that in a bad way whatsoever. A really cool aspect of the show is that it does not take place over the span of a normal movie. It takes place over a couple(?) of centuries. There’s different characters that come and go, and some others that have other ways of surviving the long time span. But it really shows you the long term consequences of certain actions.
Any particular sci-fi shows that caught your eye? Been wanting to check something out.
Severance is great. Silo is OK. For all Mankind was great in the earlier seasons. Foundation is good. Extrapolations is good, but too unrealistic for the subject matter, IMO. Dark Matter (2024) is pretty good, reminds me of Sliders from my childhood.
Edit: Oh, Sunny was good too.
Maybe if they made an android app that works on phones and tablets.
Android app Currently only works on androidTV boxes if you can figure out how to create 2 Apple accounts
They’re not available here, and can I even watch on Google TV? Sailing the high seas seems to be the best. Not my problem if I need an apple tv to watch apple tv +
I already subscribe to enough services and I really don’t want to give Apple my money.
