"After fifteen years, I figured it was time to take a break from writing antiheroes… and who's more heroic than the brilliant Rhea Seehorn? It's long past time she had her own show, and I feel lucky to get to work on it with her," said Gilligan.
Quote:

As Deadline previously reported, the show is believed to be a departure from the world of drugs and crime he explored in Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul, whose series finale aired last month.

Compared to The Twilight Zone, the new series is said to be set in our world while putting a tweak on it, bending reality and focusing on people and exploring the human condition in an unexpected, surprising way. Thought-provoking but not a morality tale, the series also is expected to carry the signature Gilligan tone that infuses drama with humor.

Great to see that for her. She was the heart and soul of BCS.

Will be interesting to see if Vince Gilligan can sustain something beyond the BB/BCS universe.

Too bad that description of the show holds no interest to me.

Too much Xfiles

Sounds like he's going back to his X-Files roots, with something possibly sci-fi in nature. So, while obviously not BB/BCS, it does at least seem to be a genre he's worked in before.

Was coming to post this. The budget alone should excite folks, Gilligan will have the money to do pretty much whatever he wants with that budget. I remember reading that they chose one of the B movies Rhea and Bob were watching in one of the episodes (was it Ice Station Zebra?)specifically because they couldn't afford to pay the royalties on anything folks would know.

So imagine what they can do now.
And totally happy for Rhea, she's earned this.

Imagining Fat Todd singing Thriller in his El Camino instead of Sharing The Night Together. Yes, my imagination is quite limited.

No apple tv and not enough to get me to pay for it.

It's like $4.99, plus it has Blackbird, Severance, and Ted Lasso. Worth it for atleast one month.

"A catalog editor with a mysterious past at a Florida-based irrigation supply company moonlights as a private detective to solve local supernatural phenomenon"

Man, you're missing out on some greatness...

- Black Bird
- For All Mankind
- Severance
- Ted Lasso
- Slow Horses
- WeCrashed

... along with so much more. At $4.99 per month it's also one of the cheapest streamers out there.

At the very least you could wait 'til the second half of the season of the Gilligan show, pay for one month, and binge it.

I'd probably get it for this show and Severance and try to knock out both in a month.

If you have an IPhone or Ipad you can watch it there. You'll need an Apple TV device to watch it on your TV at home.

I have the Apple TV device and it's actually a decent device that will consolidate pretty much all your streaming platform shows into the TV app.

You probably already knew all of that, though.

Is it not on Chromecast or Roku?

You have to have Apple TV to get it on Roku, or is that not your question?
Brian Earl Spilner

I thought he was saying the app was only available on Apple brand devices.

OK cool, I did not know it was on Roku. My kids have Rokus in their rooms and I've never seen Apple TV+ on them. Good to know.

Also on fire stick.
Apple TV has a bunch of great shows, it's bang for buck is hard to beat.

Too much Xfiles


XFiles is one of the greatest shows of all time, your loss I guess.

Initially read this as Rhea Pearlman and now I'm sad.

I'm still trying to wrap my head around that someone wouldn't pay for a $5 a month streaming service that you can turn off at any time

Didn't know he stated with xfiles.

Here's hoping this is "Home" turned into a series staring Rhea as the matriarch.

Yeah, in terms of quality of content, I'd rank Apple TV+ in 2nd place behind HBO Max at this point. Crazy to think that Netflix is probably 4th or 5th place these days.
TCTTS
How long do you want to ignore this user?
AG
Agreed. I'd go…

1. HBO Max
2. Apple TV+
3. Hulu
4. Disney+
5. Netflix
6. Amazon Prime Video

Something along those lines.

I'd flip Disney+ and Amazon Prime with each other, and that would be my ranking.

Finch and Greyhound are worth having Apple+. Thrown in Ted Lasso, Foundation and a couple of others and it has worth to me.
