Anyone??
If not, why not?
It's on apple TV and tbh is ridiculous but so so good and funny.
Micheal Rhys makes the whole show.

Matthew Rhys.

But yes, really good!

BananaMilkshake77 · 31/05/2026 00:51

It really makes us chuckle! Great mix of horror and comedy.

Hildergard2 · 31/05/2026 01:14

It’s the best!

TessTickle0 · 31/05/2026 14:44

Sorry yes Matthew.
I've not seen him in anything else,his facial expressions are the best!

Yes, really enjoying it. Proper Stephen King vibes with added humour!

BillStickersIsInnocent · 31/05/2026 18:08

I‘m loving it. Really unusual combination that works brilliantly and the dialogue is superbly written and delivered.

cheapskatemum · 31/05/2026 20:09

Matthew Rhys was the husband in The Americans. To be fair, DH pointed this out to me minutes after we’d started watching Widows Bay. I would probably have made the connection eventually!

Seagulldancing · 31/05/2026 20:12

I love it too. Apple TV has some amazing shows.

FaceForRadioIII · 31/05/2026 20:13

We've been enjoying Widows Bay, but thought this week's episode was awful.

TessTickle0 · 31/05/2026 20:32

Whilst I am still enjoying it, I think the last three have been weak compared to the other episodes.
I don't like the weekly drop however-I am a binger usually.

Think it’s really good although didn’t like the last episode as much.

Matthew Rhys is an excellent actor. He is really funny in this but he was utterly terrifying in The Beast in me recently with Claire Danes.

It's soooooo good! I love that I actually have to focus and watch it or else I'll miss all the good jokes.......

Are you mad at something I said?
Except for the teeth
You had qualms???

Obsessed.....

Deadringer · 01/06/2026 21:05

I love Matthew Rhys! Show is a bit weird but I will watch anything he is in.

SabreIsMyFave · 01/06/2026 21:09

LOVING IT! Seen first 6 episodes so far.

Watching No 7 tonight!

Mumteedum · 01/06/2026 21:10

It is really good. Apple tv is quality. There's always something good.

I love Matthew Rhys. Try Death Comes to Pemberley. That's a good one on iPlayer and The Americans is a brilliant show. The Beast in Me was fun. I wanted to see him as Perry Mason but don't have nowtv.

Mumteedum · 01/06/2026 21:11

Does anyone know how many episodes in total there are/will be?

FunMum2019 · 01/06/2026 21:21

I think 10 in total, so 3 left!

1000umbrellas · 01/06/2026 21:27

Felt it fell off a bit in the last couple of episodes but the Sunset Cocktails episode, just sublime.

Mumteedum · 01/06/2026 21:34

FunMum2019 · 01/06/2026 21:21

I think 10 in total, so 3 left!

I'm going to save the rest up I think! I'm a couple behind. 😁

adore it!!

PotatoNumber5 · 03/06/2026 19:56

I love this show so much! Watching last episode tonight (once kids are in bed)

AndAllOurYesterdays · 03/06/2026 20:05

Loving it too. Bits it's really scary! When I read it was a comedy horror I assumed it would err on the comedy side. I couldn't sleep last night after watching the one with the Sea Hag!

She’s terrifying tbf but the chair flip bit killed me. I’ve fallen into a bit of a hole looking at the Easter eggs and details and which horror films inspired which bits
