    Re: Apple TV Plus

    I jumped on the app for a 6-month free trial during Baseball season and now they're becoming quickly a favorite entertainment stream. I know prices have increased but I'm loving so far For all Mankind, and Invasion Season 1. Looking forward to Monarch Legacy of Monsters coming this Friday, and they've secured Killers of the Flower Moon, and Napoleon.

      Apple has some quality shows. Severance is one I recommend. Silo I haven’t finished but it has been good

            Monarch: Legacy of Monters has been good so far

            Love having Kurt Russell and his son Wyatt on the show, one of the best younger and older version of a character you can get.

              Finally watched season 3 of Mythic Quest. It was a bit of a mixed bag. Overall I would recommend it, but it is without a doubt the worst of the seasons so far.

              The show definitely missed F. Murray Abraham's character. I totally understand why he is no longer a part of it, but they did not have an adequate replacement for his awkwardness.

              The new dynamics that were inevitable at the end of season 2 were probably not good for the show. While they found a way to keep all of the characters relatively engaged with each other, it just lost a lot of what made seasons 1 & 2 so enjoyable.

              The biggest weakness of the show though at this point is Dana. Her character has become a mary-sue. I always found her and the other tester to be a bit annoying, but this is the first time that I have outright disliked any character on the show. In addition to completely not liking her, other characters like David and Carol also lost a bit of luster towards the end.

              For the positives:
              Ian & Poppy's relationship went into a bit more drama than comedy (still comical, but there was more substance). I actually enjoyed this part of it and getting to see more of their background and how they came to be partners.

              Sue (the community manager) needs to be featured more. She was really only in one episode, and it was one of the best in the season.

              Rachel...I actually kind of enjoyed her character this season. Especially her development alongside Brad.

              I'm looking forward to season 4 but:

                I'm enjoying Monarch, but also it needs to pick up the pace. I'm 5 episodes in, and even though the story has been interesting it also feels like the story is just crawling.

                Also, I got an e-mail that Apple TV price is increasing on Dec 24th. Increasing by 40% to 9.99. I have already cancelled my subscription. They have quality stuff, but the library isn't there. Combine that with seasons that only go like 10 episodes, and it's something that you're better off picking up once every 6 months and binge watching everything.

                  I couldn't finish or get caught up with Ted Lasso, Silo, Physical or Slow Horses. I might come back in January for the UK's Criminal Record because I'm a Cush Jumbo fan.

                  If that's the case my break will be short-lived because my subscription runs out December 19th as does my Apple Arcade on December 20th.

                    man...Monarch: Legacies of Monsters is such trash.

                    That's hyperbole, but it's just really disappointing how much of a nose dive this show has taken. Or maybe I'm just finally realizing that it was always more hype than substance.

                    Spoiler



                    Bit of a rant here. Maybe it's because Godzilla Minus One showed a masterful job of how to tell a monster story while primarily featuring the human element, and that movie was so recently released and is a baseline for comparison. Regardless, I'm not at all upset about my apple+ sub ending in a couple of days and not being able to finish out the last 3 episodes now though.

                      It's sad how bad For All Mankind has gotten.

                        I still like For All Mankind. Sure it isn't as great as it was the 1st two seasons though.

                          Just feels like it's almost becoming a parody of itself. The end of this last episode in particular.

                            I'm in season 1 of 'For All Mankind' and I'm enjoying it but from the sounds of it I'm wondering how far to invest my time if it's turning towards going off the rails. As for Monarch, complete disappointment. I dropped it after the 4th episode.

                            However, if there's one series I'm looking forward too, it begins this Friday!
