the article says nothing about "apple wanted family friendly." All it says is that apple didn't want "black mirror." Since apple bought "amazing stories," which is a well-known show with a well-known aesthetic, not surprising they didn't go along with the bait and switch.
Anyway, brilliant though
Black Mirror is, you don't
have to have "adult" content in
everything - that's not what the "F" in "SF" stands for... Plus, we've had the (mediocre) P.K. Dick anthology, now
Altered Carbon which, while not an anthology, explored similar territory (the book long pre-dates Black Mirror, of course - written SF was doing that stuff decades ago). That stuff is going to be getting old soon.
Since Game of Thrones, non-broadcast TV has been trying to out-dark-and-edgey itself. I think program makers are a bit inclined to say "Hey, we're streaming now, woohoo", over-indulge with the gore and nudity and let off so many F-bombs that they have to start resorting to C-bombs to get anybody's attention. Its a bit like seeing a TV comedian live and hearing them swear their head off because they can, instead of actually being funny.
Its getting to be tedious rather than shocking. By the time Amazing Stories comes out, the world may be ready for something different.
They should look at (e.g.) Doctor Who, which has been turning out B-movie fantasy/horror for a family audience for over 50 years (including a fair amount of crud, but as Theodore Sturgeon said, that accounts for 90% of everything) - episodes like "The Empty Child", "Blink" or "Midnight" scare the spit out of people of all ages without needing an "h".
