I’ve been watching Apple’s streaming service for the last couple weeks, and man, a lot of their stuff just isn’t very memorable. You have all these big name actors, yet the projects themselves aren’t worthwhile except for a couple.

I think they have a lot of great stuff but the seams are starting to show, it feels like they're casting bigger and bigger names to hide the faults of the scripts they decide to produce. Extrapolations is laughably bad.

They have a ton of shows you likely haven't seen that definitely fit the "big names but not memorable" category. Hell I'd even put The Morning Show in there and that's one of their most high profile shows.

I watch a crap ton of tv, like 5-10hr a day, and Apple is prob 2nd to HBO with some of the best shows out over the last couple years.

I do agree though that the Jennifer Aniston one with a bunch of famous folks kinda fell off, I never bothered watching the 2nd season.

At least the production values can make it for them to be enjoyable

Their first FAMK was great but S3 left a lot to be desired...lol

I've liked a lot of their stuff, but maybe theyre in 'greenlight everything' mode now. Would make sense to grow the library.
