I only saw the first episode, it was ok but it felt too childish for my taste.

It definitely improves from there since pilots have to spend time introducing the world, characters, etc. But yeah, if you don't like British/New Zealand style humor, particularly that which pays much homage to Monty Python and Terry Gilliam movies, then it won't be appealing.

Making a note for later...

Great, yet another show I really want to watch.

People here will probably soon start thinking I'm an Apple shill with all the comments I make, but IMO, TV+ has tons of great original content. Definitely recommend taking a peek at their shows. And the movies.

Of course, nobody says you have to pay for it. Yarr!

Apple+ has consistently been putting out some great shows. Severance is one of my favorite shows of the last few years, it's frustrating that season 2 has taken so long to come back. Foundation is also great, despite it absolutely butchering the source material I still found it to be entertaining, especially the scenes with the Emperor clones. Ted Lasso is of course some fantastic comedy. Monarch was awesome, really enjoyed that Godzilla spin-off. There are probably a few others I can't recall off the top of my head.

I'm really enjoying Bad Monkey right now. Might be the first time I find Vince Vaughn relatable, but that might just be because I'm also a lazy sarcastic prick.

The last days of Ptolemy Gray was a good one.

I didn't think I'd like The Morning Show, but I ended up getting pretty invested, as there's a lot of office politics.

Acapulco is funny and I love that in his rose-tinted glasses memories, the resort is literally pink.

Honorable mentions: Shantaram, City on Fire, The Silo... And there have been others I've enjoyed. There was a period where I had a solid 5 shows to watch every week, all on Apple TV.
