Apple TV+’s Mythic Quest is ‘Silicon Valley’ but for game devs
[ad_1] It’s sharp and funny enough to keep non-gamers hooked; it actually tackles major issues facing the industry; and at times, it’s surprisingly sweet and poignant. Mythic Quest, which premieres on Apple TV+ today, is like a cross between Office Space, HBO’s Silicon Valley (RIP), and Comedy Central’s excellent series Corporate. It has everything you’d […]

Additionally, Apple is obviously heavily invested in the success of TV+, with the […]
Apple unveils animated musical series from the creator of ‘Bob’s Burgers’

Director sues Apple for allegedly copying her movie with ‘Servant’
[ad_1] Gregorini further claimed that Shyamalan simply took her premise and put it through the “male lens,” with men looking down on a woman’s mental health issues and discussing the sex appeal of the nanny.

Apple TV+ snags Spike Jonze’s documentary on the Beastie Boys
[ad_1] The documentary is a modest coup for Apple. Rivals have plenty of music docs, such as Beyoncé’s Homecoming on Netflix — Apple has a long way to go if TV+ is going to compete in terms of sheer numbers. An official Beastie Boys documentary is a big deal, though, and shows that Apple is […]
Apple signs former HBO chief to a five-year deal
