  • The other problem with Apple's content restrictions -- creative freedom

    I had hoped that Apple would be interested in continuing the series Sense8. It was an amazing show fully embracing diversity, celebrating love, connection and what it is to be human. It was expensive to make, and Apple seemed a perfect fit. However it celebrated sex, showed the violence that is common these days, and some characters had a potty mouth. So, that will never happen. It’s too bad. Maybe someday someone will have what it takes to revive this show. 

    It it does sound like it will be great for 4th grade school kids, and adults looking to relive 1950’s TV. I’m curious to see the sleeping arrangements for Married coulpes. Will they show two side by side twin beds with plenty of space in between? When I was growing up I thought my parents were strange for sharing one larger bed!

    Thankfully I can turn to HBO, Netflix, and even BBC for my far less puritanical interests. It’s odd that Apple sells lurid novels and graphic music, and videos that depict what they refuse to put their name on. Guess that’s OK to start. It would not surprise me if in time they start releasing more adult video under a different name. They could call it Next TV, leaving Apple’s pristine image unsullied...

  • Apple to prep second season of 'Carpool Karaoke'

    Just not interested in Apple video. Why doesn’t Apple buy Disney? Everything apple wants to do is so very G rated! I have more fun with Game of Thrones, Black Mirror, Sense8. It’s all too scandalous for Apple. Oh well, maybe someday...
