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)

    I’m watching Silo and I’m super impressed with the production. I really recommend it to people who are considering watching.

      The aesthetics, the characters and the story make it one of the best shows I have seen in a long time.

        100% agreed. I even got the first book to read on my vacations.

          Yeah I saw quite the air of negativity around it on another platform… But I’m really enjoying it! Definitely one of my favorite ‘mystery box’ shows now.

          I’m quite a ways into the first book and its made me appreciate the show more.

      I’m watching it too, and I honestly didn’t expect it to be this engaging and great! Seems like it is getting better by the episode. Every time I finish one I wish the next was already available
