This is brilliant, enjoy.

We watched the first 3 episodes last night. Can't recall the last time I was so captivated after a pilot episode. Brilliant stuff. Have a feeling this will be a quick burn. Though I don't recommend watching right before bed (WILD dreams) :roflmao:

Started watching Black Bird (2022 Apple TV) first episode.
Started as a prison drama type of thing but glad there seems to be a recap of why things happened.
Hope it stays like that - based on on a true story.
Promising.

I'm not a huge fan of true stories though there have been exceptions with Unbelievable probably being the best (Toni Collette and Merit Weaver are top class) Netflix that one

Apple TV have a second series of Dark Matter coming on Friday, I thought it was a one off show.

The article that was based on won a Pulitzer, it was an excellent dramatisation of that
