Upcoming :apple:tv+ shows look so uninteresting and underwhelming.
Foundation Trilogy? Lisey’s Story? Band of Brothers 3.0? Amazing Stories by Steven Speilberg? Shantaram? And way more on the way? If that is “uninteresting and underwhelming” I have no idea what to say. This is the most exciting slate of shows I have seen under one network umbrella since the classic HBO years of Deadwood, etc.

Excellent news! Little America is already getting rave reviews - it's at 100% on Rotten Tomatoes, with 3 very big reviewers calling it "Apple's best show." (Take that with a grain of salt, as reviewers seem to have 'Morning Show Derangement Syndrome' (MSDoS), where they can't recognize the greatness that is TMS).

Apple continues to push forward. They really need to keep quality moving forward at a crazy pace to become a real competitor.
