Presumed Innocent with Jake Gyllenhaal on Apple TV.

An ending you won’t see coming, I can assure you.

As of yesterday, all episodes are available.
Outside of Ted Lasso, I cannot thing of one good show or movie that has come about since Apple TV has existed.

Yeah I never watched any of that shit. No Miami Vice or Rockford Files or anything else like that.

I watched pretty much all the sitcoms of that era but wasn't into the hour long dramas.

Watched Rockford Files, Beretta, and Starsky and Hutch.

Looking back now I bet the Rockford Files was pretty good. I remember my stepfather watching it but I never had any interest when I was a kid.

I remember watching it with my grandmother a lot. I think she was kind of sweet on James Garner. :lol

Same. It's weird how I think I'm about the same age as some people but we watched different shows. Like I remember the Rockford Files intro, but I didn't watch it myself... that was my parents watching it. I'm guessing it's because I was a firstborn and didn't have older siblings watching or telling me about these shows... something like that. Pretty much all my TV watching was after school of syndicated shows... at night when the shows were on live I was doing homework or whatever.

If you were a little kid in the 1970s, it wasn't a show for you. I started watching it in syndication in the 80's.

It's funny how y'all got to decide what you watched. When we got to watch TV we watched whatever my parents watched.

I had to watch what my parents watched as well, but when they watched something I didn't want to watch I just did other things.

I didn't even really do that. When dad watched TV at night, I wasn't in the room. That's why I only saw what came on from like 4:30 to 5:30 or so in the afternoon.

I know this may sound spiteful, but I vividly remember thinking to myself, as I went outside, "Let that fucker be his own tv remote".

I was a latch key kid who had the hours of 3-5 maybe. Then my damn sisters ruled the TV. Thankfully, they watched cool shows.
