Finished S2 of "Counterpart" on Prime.  The premise of the show was not necessarily something I thought I'd like, but it held my interest.  I thought it was good, sometimes hard to follow (keeping track of who was who), but a creative show for sure.  Two seasons was plenty for the show and its conclusion didn't leave me wanting more.  J.K. Simmons was very good.

I have this on my list, and it seems to be right in my lane as far as premise is concerned . I see you said the conclusion didn’t leave you wanting more, so I guess that means it’s worth a watch? I am leery since I had heard it was canceled.

It was worth watching. The ending was appropriate and I didn’t need the story to continue. I just didn’t think it was a great show, but it was worth watching. It’s pretty dark.

Is Apple TV + any good? T-Mobile is offering a year subscription for free ($60 value).

It's worth it if it's free.

i watched "greyhound" and liked it.

i started watching "the morning show" and like it so far.

i haven't watched enough of the channel yet to decide if it's worth the money, but for one year free, knock yourself out.

finished S2 of "only murders in the building." another good season, and i managed to get my wife and daughter to watch with me. looking forward to S3 where paul rudd will be a guest star.

Apple TV isn't supported on my TV anyway.

I could install it on a Fire TV stick or something but nah.

Plus, you’d have to have T-Mobile

Amazon:  The Outlaws  A British comedy about 7 people that commit a crime and are assigned community service.  It's really subtle British humor, as opposed to an American type humor.  It's also listed as a crime thriller.  But more of a comedy crime.  It has it's flaws, but overall it was an enjoyable 2 seasons.

I'm only a few episodes into the 2nd season, but it isn't holding my attention like the first season, which I thought was good.

Amazon:  Samaritan  Superhero movie starring Sly.  Kind of predictable, but entertaining.  Single shot movie, so was worth the watch.

Started watching “The Fall” on Prime. It’s pretty intense. Gillian Anderson stars. It’s dark. Maybe too dark for me. Two episodes in.

Very good show

Stick with it

I just watched the first episode of “City on a Hill” on Prime. Amazing. Terrific cast. I didn’t know it was on Prime or I would have watched it earlier. It leaves Prime in 5 days and I doubt I’ll be able to binge it all. Does anyone know if it’s going to Hulu or another platform?

Not sure where it's going

I really enjoyed it a lot

It's a Showtime series and it kept wanting me to sign up and I passed

[Brandon]

Yeah, I think it’s weird because the new season is coming out, so I imagine just back to Showtime.

This is another “to do list” show. I watched the first episode when it first came out, but just never followed up.

Actually I changed my mind and installed it on an old Fire TV Gen 3. I want to check out Severance to see what the hubbub is all about.

S3 has already begun.

On Apple TV we watched Greyhound and a few episodes of Ted Lasso.

What brand of TV do you have that doesn't support Apple TV +? BlackBerry?

Sounds like you figured it out.

Severance is a very good show.
