My wife and I finished For All Mankind (liked it a lot! Season 4 a bit worse, but still a fun show) and we are currently watching Only Murders in the Building. The latter is more fun than I thought it'd be; Steve Martin and Martin Short are cute together and the whole show has a nice positive cheerful vibe to it.

100% Only Murderers in the Building is GOLD. I was even more impressed with Selena Gomez's ability to gel so well with Martin and Short.

Sadly, we stopped watching For All Mankind Season 4 after the first episode or two. It just didn't click at all like the first 3 seasons, which were wonderful. Also, once Gordo exits, we lost a big connection to the show.

I fell ya on this... We pushed through the first half of the season and after that we were just on our phones and felt the story was just dumb and predictable. Wish they wouldn't have pushed so many time jumps or just had a different cast each season and make it more of an anthology.

AppleTV is still doing pretty well in it's content compared to others. Palm Royal is great, Ted Lasso is fantastic, Foundation just kills it, and Monarch was great too and loved how they intertwined the movie franchises into the plot (makes the movies a lot better IMHO).

I had never even heard of it. Just watched the trailer and I’m still not sure what it’s about. Is it fictional?

Yes…. I liked to because it’s a limited series so it all wraps up in 6 episodes. Reminded me of “Billions” if you’ve ever seen that.

OK, didn't realize it was a series. Thought it was a movie. Haven't seen Billions or Succession yet.

Please stop what you're doing and right this wrong immediately. Succession is an all-time great show.

First season of Billions is also really good. Seasons after that are hit and miss.

My only problem with Succession is that there isn't a single main character on the show that felt any sympathy for.

Well, Cousin Greg at least starts as the audience avatar.

That's a good point, but he also starts as a goof.
