Apple TV has maybe figured out the SECRET that no other streaming service has figured out
This one factor that sets them apart from the rest: uh, really good content and not treating customers like shit
Yeah pretty much they just threw a bunch of money at really competent directors and insanely thoroughly vetted screenplays until they amassed a frankly insane list of banger programming
And then they kept making it. Even if basically nobody watched a show they would renew it to give the showrunners a chance to tell their full story. This is genius on several levels
> the audience gets to see the full story play out
> the directors and screenwriters working with Apple TV know they have much greater support to tell their stories
> actors who sign with Apple TV know they won’t be suddenly dropped on a dime
It’s not a coincidence that Brett Goldstein has appeared in, written and produced multiple Apple TV shows. It’s the entire strategy
Apple TV wants to be the best place for the best storytellers to tell the best stories. That’s the business model. Will it work? I don’t know. But it’s a great experience so far
