As Netflix continues turning off fans by aggressively cancelling shows and raising prices, this is Apple TV Plus’ moment to shine
Over the Christmas holiday, I got addicted to a new Apple TV Plus series — Echo 3, an intense thriller from screenwriter Mark Boal, whose credits include Zero Dark Thirty and The Hurt Locker. As far as what the show is about, two elite US Special Forces soldiers head down to South America to rescue a kidnapped woman (she’s the sister of one and the wife of the other). It’s got solid writing, and great action scenes … what else can I say but that I’ve enjoyed it immensely so far, leading up to the finale next Friday.
I’ve enjoyed it so much, in fact, that I’m a little perplexed as to why it feels like no one is talking about it.
This has been somewhat of a recurring problem plaguing the best content on Apple TV Plus — and there’s more of that content than you might think, beyond the biggest Apple releases like Ted Lasso (Season 3 of which, rumor has it, will arrive in March).
