I think if you're ok watching the content weekly and only watch an hour or two, if feels like there is content there, but if you binge like most people who stream do, there is hardly anything there. Most people would probably be better off to subscribe for a month or two a year and cancel the rest of the time.
Hard disagree from a personal view. Also statistically, I don't think you can strongly claim this since many of their shows have lots of awards if you go off that metric. I haven't done the calculations but I would guess that their content to award ratio is even higher than many other networks.
That is probably true, but only because they have so little content overall. It is nice that it's not choke full of low budget reality nonsense and foreign stuff, but they also have basically none of the back catalog of content that other services have.
Really hard to agree with this. The shows I've enjoyed most recently are primarily on Apple. Slow Horses, Ted Lasso, Severance, Silo, Dark Matter, Foundation. And, unlike Netflix, Apple seems willing to bring back well regarded shows for a second season, instead of canceling for something new.
Honestly, that seems to be part of the playbook for almost every show now. I wonder if people just didn't notice it much until the Bear or Ted Lasso, or maybe just because it's more of an abrupt departure from the main story line in those shows instead of just being a b-plot part of a normal episode.
There's so many good shows on Apple TV.
When I look at the Apple TV+ catalog, I can see myself giving an honest shake to _most_ of their content. I simply can't say the same for other services. I understand why they are flooding the zone if they have the resources, but there's a finite amount of content one human can watch.
If Apple releases 50 shows and 80% are up my alley, I get the same amount of enjoyable content as Netflix releasing 400 shows but only 10% are worth my time.

That's a good point. Plus it's not like I can't resubscribe later and catch up on everything again.
I don't use Apple equipment at all, it's unpopular here, but Apple TV subscription was the only thing from them I really though may be worth it.
Also shows on each platform are largely different depending on country, to the point where it's a pathetic fraction of what US has. It puts Apple TV in a bit better light.
