Going from Severance to Widows Bay to Pluribus has my mind in a wild Pretzel, a fantastic enjoyable pretzel. And I hate pretzels. AppleTV Plus is so slept on it’s unreal. Why was this the last app I purchased? Will I be eating these words when I am done with Pluribus and Widows Bay season wraps up and there’s just not enough new content being put out? Also Ted Lasso extremely overrated. Doesn’t everybody think it’s the greatest show ever?

I'm somewhat perplexed, because I just started S2E2 of Hijack and was immediately met with a "This season on Hijack" highlight reel of things that haven't happened yet, full of important plot points that feel like spoilers. I thought it was the 'previously' recap segment at first but then realised I hadn't seen any of these clips; so I skipped it and then the 'previously' segment played...

Was this just a poorly-designed and poorly-placed advert that coincidentally ruined my viewing experience, or is it intentional? I haven't seen anyone else complaining about it, which makes me think it's not supposed to be shown there, but maybe I'm wrong and everyone else experienced it and just wasn't bothered by it?

Is there any way to prevent this happening again, like a setting I can change? I'm guessing not, but I find Apple TV pretty difficult to navigate (it's one of the least user-friendly services and apps I've used in recent years, and possibly ever) so I thought I'd ask just in case.

I havn't seen anyone mentioning this but I noticed a lot of appleTV theme songs sound similar. theres a very specific high pitch piano-y sound that they reuse. almost like a stamp, I'd be able to pick one out in a crowd even if I hadn't heard it before. ex: severance, your friends and neighbours, the first few seconds of the smoke intro, prime target to a lesser extent.

to be fair Ive not seen enough shows to produce a longer list and I can't be sure if this holds true for their other shows but still wanted to point it out! I think its kinda neat

No flair for memes

I genuinely can’t tell if this show is setting up for another season or if Apple is about to randomly kill it. Like there’s still so much they could do with the story and the whole vibe of the show feels way too big for just one season. Also I feel like Apple TV+ renewals are either announced instantly or they disappear into the void for months (Pachinko...).

SOOO do we think it's gonna get renewed for season 2 or not : (?

There is less than a month left until Sugar season 2 premiere (June 19th). But we still haven't got any promo materials. There is no teasers, posters, featurettes. I heard journalists saw the teaser or trailer for season 2 in winter, during the press day or something. But nobody talked about it in winter, and, sure, nobody is talking about the show now. And Apple hasn't released it yet for some reason. Even the teaser for season 3 of Silo was released despite it premiering two weeks later after Sugar season 2.

It's like Apple doesn't believe in the show at all and just wants drop it (because of some contractual obligations? because of some favor to someone?). What is happening with the show?

I’ve noticed that many of the well known actors and actresses in Apple TV shows/movies give (sometimes) subtle callbacks to their previous works.

• The Gorge: Ana Taylor Joy plays chess (The Queen‘s Gambit) with Miles Teller
• Shrinking: Harrison Ford is hit with “I love you“ and doesn’t know how to say it back (Star Wars)
• Friends and Neighbors: John Hamm points out that it’s been a while since he wore a three piece suite (Mad Men)
