Apple TV - is it worth it?

[Womencanlift]

I have the option of a free trial for Apple TV with my new iPhone. I think it’s £5 per month after that.

Since it looks like I will be indoors for the foreseeable is it worth it? What is decent to watch on it?

I already have Netflix and Amazon Prime.

Unless it's changed it the last year then there is nothing different on it. It's just a portal for playing Netflix etc on. Someone might be along to correct me though

Also you can stream from your phone which was handy and something I haven't figured out how to do with my new tv

They do have some new content now, but nothing that I’d go out of my way to sign up for yet. I think I’m maxed out on subscriptions tbh.

If it’s free for you then it’s worth it to watch The Morning Show and then cancel when the subscription kicks in

I've got it free for a year with my phone

I would say its absolutely not worth it YET

Only a handful of shows, maybe 6/7

Of those I've only watched 1 - Truth be Told, which was alright but not amazing.

But they have loads of big names developing things.

I think it will be worth it, but with a lot of productions now shut down, won't have enough content to make it worth paying for until at least 2021

The Morning Show (literally THE best show - same writer as House of Cards, and about #metoo, based on roughly true story of a news anchor being accused of sexual misconduct) and Servant (really creepy domestic horror, very fascinating) are amazing but I wasn't too impressed by See, Truth be Told (although I perhaps should have stuck with it and Dickinson is a travesty. I can understand that with Dickinson they're appealing to teenage audience, but it's just grating. But get the trial and binge what you like - it's just like Amazon Prime, so some content is included with the subscription (not much) and the rest is ppv.

IMO, it's worth it just for 'For all Mankind' - show based on the premise that Russia won the space race.

And Joel Kinnaman.... surely worth it just for him? 😍🤪😍

Servant is. I took the free year and now I’m worried I’ll have to take out a subscription to see more episodes. It’s brilliant

We're on the last episode of servant now and it is brilliant - still none the bloody wiser as to what is going on but utterly gripped.

Taking it back

Watching Servant

Bloody RIVETING
