AppleTV - I know many of you don't have this, but it sometimes comes free with a new device. Also, I think it's cheap and there are a few shows worth checking out for a month or two.
Ted Lasso -- This is the show I look forward to the most right now. It's about a high school football coach that is sent to coach premiere league soccer, because they're trying to tank. But he's such a wholesome character, that he rises about it. It's really heartwarming and is the best example of non-toxic masculinity I've ever seen. The show makes so many characters likeable and just makes you feel really good. If you're stressed out about life and division and Facebook drama and bullshit, this show is the cure.
For All Mankind -- Really cool show. It's an alternate 1960s where the Russians beat us to space. That creates an political landscape where the space race with the Russians doesn't end and it accelerates our tech and our goals. So, it's science fiction, but set in the past. Very cool.
Peacock - I'm not 100% sure, but I think this might be free and have paid options also, without commercials or something. I'm going to start a cowboy drama called Yellowstone, but so far, I'm watching...
Escape To The Chateau -- An England couple (a quirky artist and a jack-of-all-trades engineer) realize that they can sell their London and for the same price, but a literal castle in France. Of course, the castle is hundreds of years old and has few modern amenities and needs a TON of work. It's a show about their journey to turning into a place to live, but also a business to host weddings. What's great about this show is that it's easy to watch and everyone likes it. My 6 year old daughter, my 10 year old, my wife, me, my sister, my 30 year old niece, my siblings -- it's just a general pleaser and the whole family can get into it.
