Widow’s Bay (Apple TV)

Post by dad »

The first two episodes were released last week, with new episodes every Wednesday. A good mix of comedy and thriller/horror. It was created by a writer from Parks and Rec. There are supernatural elements to it, and early reviews suggested Twin Peaks vibes - I can kind of see it.

The cast is great all around. Matthew Rhys plays the mayor of an island (Widow’s Bay) in New England, who is desperate to revive tourism, and prevent his teenage son from leaving.

Great start so far.

Anyone else watching?

Didn't realise this had started. Watched the trailer a while back and was intrigued

She's wasn't really my type - so I'd disagree
