Thank you for restoring some sanity to the "Cha Cha Real Smooth" discourse. Surprised to see some much praise for "Garden State 2022 Edition" from critics who should know better!

With "CODA" and "Ted Lasso" representing their biggest film and TV successes, I'm a bit concerned that Apple TV is becoming a safe haven for the sappiest content around.
