FOR ALL MANKIND
Ronald D. Moore, who worked on various Star Trek franchises throughout the '90s and created the stunning 2004 remake of Battlestar Galactica. Moore's For All Mankind once again goes beyond the Earth's atmosphere, telling an alternate history story where the Soviet Union tracked America to the moon, forcing NASA to heal its wounds and take more trips into space. For All Mankind takes a playful approach to imagining how different history works, rather than exploring familiar stories made by astronaut biographers. Eager to attract female voters, for example, Richard Nixon orders NASA to take women into space. It's not a revolutionary series, but an entertaining one, especially for fans of Cold War history.
TED LASSO
Saturday Night Live alum Jason Sudeikis returns to television in this out-of-water fishing comedy about an American football coach named Ted Lasso who moves to England to coach an English football team. Except for one problem: He has no experience with the 'soccer' version for the USA, which is actually football as any sports fan knows. Sudeikis is also credited with being the co-creator and executive producer of the series based on a character of the same name played by NBC Sports in the premieres for the Premier League broadcast.
MYTHIC QUEST: RAVEN’S BANQUET

With solid ratings all over Rotten Tomatoes, critical consensus calls it hilarious and praises his ability to explore the gaming industry with 'intelligence, thoughtfulness, and candor.' However, he is asked to rely too heavily on the 'workplace comedy formula'. That said, it's worth checking out if you enjoy the genre as well as video games.
HOME BEFORE DARK
The Rotten Tomatoes critical consensus of this mystery drama describes it as 'interesting' and praises the young Brooklynn Prince for his dedicated performance. The series is about a young girl named Hilde (The Prince) who moves to a small lakeside town and faces a cold murder case that everyone believes she is trying to bury, including her own father. In fact, it was based on the true story of 9-year-old Hilde Lysiak (now 13), who ran her own local newspaper and once covered a murder case before another media outlet.
The money Apple spends on these shows makes itself feel just right. They are truly gorgeous and have top-notch talent, many of them need more cohesion and content in the posts. On the purely positive side though, women are at the forefront of almost all of these productions.
