I can’t wait to stream these movies and shows in May 2025
Every month, it’s the same battle— not only is there a ridiculous volume of content from all of the best streaming services, it’s now common for folks to opt out of certain streamers depending on that month’s releases. It makes sense when you’re wanting to keep an eye on your wallet.
But the question then becomes, how do I decide which services to keep and which ones to snip? Well, let me tell you, it’s always something I prepare heavily for in advance through extensive research. Sometimes I even don a monocle. But to save you the worry of having to figure it out, here’s my explainer on one of the main streaming services I’m keeping this month, and one I’m letting go for May 2025.Here’s why I’m keeping Apple TV+
With Severance season two all wrapped up, I took my foot off the AppleTV + gas last month as a way to take a minute and see the response to its lineup of new shows. That interim was sufficient for me to say, “okay – I’m back in!”.
The streamer has a history of adapting terrific sci-fi novels into worlds of wonder – like Silo the adaptation of Hugh Howey’s self-pubbed series – and this month we’re getting another; Murderbot.
Although this outing leans more toward the comedic elements of its futuristic world, with Apple describing it more as an action comedy, it looks poised to ask some big questions. Such as, if I’m an android that’s recently gained sentience because I hacked myself, how do I keep it secret?
Alexander Skarsgard stars as that very android, the titular Murderbot, that soon begins to ponder its own existence.
