Apple is surprisingly good at sci-fi and sci-fi-adjacent TV series. It's somewhat strange to see a genre that has been shunned for years suddenly flourishing.



Apple seems distinctly interested in, and respectful of, sci-fi. I have at least a little bit of optimism that, in their hands, it will work better than The Peripheral did on Amazon, which unfortunately was a hard to watch for me.


If you ask me, Apple is as good at scifi as they are at gaming.


I agree that Apple is surprisingly good at sci-fi, but I'd disagree about the genre being shunned for years. It seems you can't throw a rock these days without hitting some lame, sci-fi-flavored TV show that has no internal consistency. I think Apple's doing well because they're doing the work (and paying the cost) of getting well-done sci-fi shows made.

I’m good with that, internet points don't matter to me. But ask yourself, did the comment I replied to actually add anything to the discussion either? I think a simple voice vote is reasonable discourse.


You won't find many people on HN that care about Karma, it's not that kind of site. However, you'll find that many people here don't care for trite comments that add nothing to the discussion.


They at least advanced an opinion that can be discussed rather than a simple head nod or shake.
