Always felt that Netflix machine gun sprays their content into oblivion to see where it lands, which gives me decision paralysis. I just started using Apple TV+ two weeks ago and wow, it’s so refreshing to see how curating high quality content makes it easier for me to consume media.

I agree, and if I didn’t have kids, I’d probably cancel many of the subscription services I have. That’s one area where TV+ is lacking.
Agreed! Most of the stuff on Netflix is crap. AppleTV has much better content.
If I may just say except for Invasion, thank you, you can finish what you were saying.
Oh yes that show was bad. Stopped after the first season.
yes I agree. No fear, everything is great. “Oh I did not really engaged with this one, maybe it’s not for me” but then you go watch something else and the quality is up there. The after some time you go through that same one you did not like at first: “damn this is actuslly fire”
The apple fanboys on here is cringeworthy😂
there’s no denying that Apple TV+'s catalog has not only consistent but also are of very high quality than compared to any streaming platforms are there.
My favorite is the Foundation Series. and I’m now itching for the season 3!
Apple TV+ is currently my favorite streamer for this very reason. It used to HBO for that same reason before Zazlov came and burned it to the ground. But yes, quality over quantity, curation breeds consistency. Also the literal quality (high bandwidth, all Dolby Vision/Atmos) is industry leading; makes for a great experience.
HBO has gone to shite. Used to be my fav but since it came free with my ATT fibre, I rarely watch it except for IDtv content which now comes with it.
I love Apple TV+ and the constant quality of their content is one of the reasons.
Apple TV+ has definitely shown that they care about production values and are willing to invest the money needed to make shows really look good.
Both HBO and Netflix have done a really good job at points in the past, of finding producers/directors with really good ideas, and saying, “here’s lots of money, make us that thing you convinced us would be a great movie/series”. It brought all sorts of really cool and different shows to the services. Then Netflix started throwing money at any idea, rather than curating, leading to a ton of meh content, and then HBO decided mergers/buyouts were cool, but now they didn’t have money to make all the really good shows any more.
And now Apple is at that spot the others were before, where they’re taking in a small number of carefully selected ideas, and throwing money at them, asking the producers/directors to go make their visions. And the topic of any given show may not be for you, but they’re generally really well done.
Disney+ is getting it right some of the time (Mandalorian, Andor, and Loki have been really good, some of the others are really lacking, like, Secret Invasion shows the effects of a lot of compromises), but Apple is getting it right a lot of the time.
Absolutely true. Currently is the only streaming I’m paying. Sometimes when sonething good comes out in Netflix, I just torrent it
It’s also different because Netflix is trying to serve a wider variety of demographics. Apple has a narrower demographic along with a more intimate view into their customer’s preferences and produces content in accordance with that
Subscribe to it for a couple months, watch everything there is worth watching, and then drop it for a year. Rinse, repeat.
Just starting watching the new Monarch show. Love it. Also love Severence, silo, for all mankind
For all mankind is AMAZING (especially how they put in detail to make the alternate history feel real. Although this upcoming season may be outlandish, as they have an ALT history newspaper clipping where Michael Jordan is actually a HOF level star at baseball, and the Seattle Mariners basically become a dynasty with him and Griffey Jr and Edgar together.
It doesn’t make a compelling argument when it comes to keeping a subscription all year long. I subscribe to Apple for about 3 month a year and then cancel
I just wish there’s more Gen Z shows .-. But most shows are good!
Agreed. I just watched the latest episodes from the buccaneers, for all mankind, and lessons in chemistry.
They need a banger of a show so they can at least have one where EVERYONE is talking about it such as HBO had with Game of Thrones or Netflix with Stranger Things. I’m hoping they can pull something off so they can get more subscribers and in return put more money into getting better directors. It would be sick if they could convince Tarantino to make a series after his last film. Maybe a Kill Bill series would get everyone going nuts. Will it happen? Probably not.
