Definitely cool to have more proshots. But I hate Apple TV, genuinely one of the worst interfaces I've ever had the displeasure of using, and it has next to no programs I ever want to watch.
I wonder if they're trying to set themselves apart from the other services by providing proshots for shows worldwide, something Disney beat them out to with Hamilton.

Very exciting if true! I would like all of these to be recorded and released on Apple TV.

Apple TV is slowly starting to become the home for broadway/west-end shows. Some I've seen rumoured/confirmed by good sources: Hadestown (with original cast in London) Next To Normal (already filming) The Outsiders Merrily We Roll Along (already filmed, confirmed contracts) Suffs (unsure of this) Illinoise (unsure of this) I don't have Apple TV however I believe they also had the pro shoot of Come From Away

Slow horses, bad monkey, ted lasso, the morning show, trying, hijack, black bird, presumed innocent, I haven't heard of a lot of those shows... but I suppose I don't really follow what's hot right now. Maybe I'll check it out. I only have Apple TV because it came as part of some group subscription I use for the family to get extra cloud storage and Apple Music and I supposed why not. But the app is abysmal to use. Do they just not have search by genre like other streaming services, or am I missing something?

Do they just not have search by genre like other streaming services, or am I missing something? Like most streaming services, the interface is different depending on which device you're using. On my AppleTV, I can browse by genre such as Drama, Comedy, Kids & Family, Non-Fiction. Apple have been rubbish about the branding of their services. "Apple TV+" is the streaming service which shows content commissioned by Apple, such as Ted Lasso. It's available on Apple devices and selected TVs. It's a subscription service but it has a lot less content than services like Netflix or Amazon Prime - it says it concentrates on quality rather than quantity. "Apple TV" is a physical device that aggregates content across multiple services. "TV" is an Apple app that runs on Apple devices (Macs and iOS devices) which does a bit of the first and a bit of the second...

Oh, that sounds great. For me apple+ ist the best streaming service with unique series content. Also sound and picture is superb - but also at Disney+

Apple TV+ is easily my favourite streaming service, every show I've watched on there is brilliant (favourites being Shrinking, Bad Sisters, and Severance)
The CFA pro-shot is so brilliantly filmed, I hope these others follow suit!

AppleTV has some of the better SF shows too - Severance, Silo, For All Mankind (although last season, to me, was a dud), Foundation (call it "inspired" by the novels). And I enjoyed Monarch (Legacy of Monsters) despite all of its "huh?" moments.

Hadestown (with original cast in London)
Praying to all the gods that I can get a ticket for the filming of this if true. I saw it about 12 times at the National and think the currrent west end company are fantastic but...
Amber and Patrick.
Amber and Patrick....
I know it was rumoured they'd be opening the west end run and doing a pro-shot, which didn't happen. Is there any kind of confirmation they may be doing it now?
