My wife and I honestly haven't used it since Servant ended. We'll probably watch Defending Jacob though.
Netflix, Hulu and HBO Now are the three services we use the most (wife has Disney+ but I don't use it much).
Just watched the first two episodes of “Defending Jacob” - incredible. One of their best shows yet!
Watched some of Defending Jacob. I found it just to be a typical murder/drama thriller that's easily matched by any other similar offering on another service. The plot is really by the numbers. Still, eventually they will get a hit and then the service will take off.
Also, as an aside, the Apple product placement in this show is bordering on obnoxious. I half expected Tim Cook to make a cameo at one point.

Probably about as interesting as your list of the streaming services you have, in a thread about Defending Jacob and Beastie Boys Story 🙄
I have not used it, I like to binge-watch and with apple programs, you can't so I don't, once the free trial ends I will cancel the subscription, and continue to use Netflix.
Two more excellent shows!

You should check out Little America and Home Before Dark. IMO two of the best shows on TV+.

That should be For All Mankind. WHAT’S WRONG WITH PEOPLE!?
Well, you can. I agree it’s annoying but you can wait for the season to finish. I’m doing it right now with The Clone Wars and Better Call Saul; it’s not an issue unique to TV+.
I've really loved my tv+ subscription so far. For all Mankind, The Morning Show , The Banker, Home Before Dark, Truth Be Told, and Visible, Out on Television have been really great. Defending Jacob is very good as well, I can't await for more episodes on that. I also wish they had more content, but if they concentrate on putting out content as what I've seen so far, it'll be worth the wait.
Anyone else think Apple have played this free year trial of Apple TV well .. one year free when you buy a new device ! So most people that had the free year signed up when the new iPhone came out. Then they didn’t release much content.
They then drip feed shows every other month. By the time the free year is done there will be about 10 shows.
Dont get me wrong I enjoyed See and Dickinson but they lack of content is underwhelming.

Beastie Boys doc might be enticing enough to break the cherry on this free w/ iPhone purchase Apple TV+ subscription before it expires.
Jeez, you weren’t kidding! Also, what’s with the colour grading? It’s like they started teal and orange but gave up after teal! Also also what’s this guy’s job - is he a detective or a public prosecutor?
first 3 episodes o Jacob are excellent, home before dark is very good, for all mankind is very good for whole family, little america is so so, amazing stories not so bad, but with predictible endings. still I cannot get what is See, maybe wanted to be game of thrones 2, but this is very bad, mythic quest is crap
I've been on it for 3 months, I've watched 2 episodes of Amazing Stories and about 10 minutes of Mythic Quest. I have no interest in the content they have.
not really. besides the offerings that i find unappealing thus far, i hate the tv app itself. there is no separation for shows i have subscriptions to and shows i need to buy. i have showtime, hbo and prime. but shows that require payments are constantly in the forefront.

disney seems to be able to and so does att.
Back to the early days of 24 where the good guys had macs and the bad guys had dells!
I ask myself that question every single day lately.
They just need to remove Ghost Writers then their whole catalogue will be practically perfect.

That’s actually something they require movies to do if they have any Apple devices; the bad characters can’t use the Apple devices.
