In 2021/22, besides Ted Lasso and Severance, there wasn’t really any really good TV shows that got me hooked, this has massively changed in 2023 and I’m almost exclusively watching it at the moment.
Ted Lasso season 3 was good, Silo (fucking love this show), Platonic are really good and their upcoming shows also look really good. Apple are trying really hard here and I think it shows, thought it was worth stating.
The episode release format really naffs me off though as I’m hooked and then I have to wait a week, guess it makes sense from a business perspective though to ensure people are paying monthly, (except me with 6 months free access via my credit card)
The Problem with John Stewart is great for a political, real life show. I feel like it’s what Last Week Tonight was before it got big.
If you like drama, The Morning Show is so freaking good. I can’t wait for the next season.
I actually love the weekly release of episodes. It makes it easier to discuss with people who are watching it without spoiling things. We had people over for Ted Lasso every week and it wouldn’t be the same if they dropped all at once
Yes I came here to say this exactly! It makes discussions so much easier. You can all stay on the same page so much easier and I don’t feel forced to rush through. I like having a weekly schedule (Mondays I have [this] to look forward to, Wednesday I have [this], etc).
100% agree. Trying to discuss Stranger Things with coworkers was like walking a tight rope trying to avoid spoilers
We’ve just come full circle back to network shows lol
