I say this as someone who's chronically watching new shows, I've never even heard of this. So that's probably part of the problem. Like, after a conversation with someone I realized I'm watching like 12 shows week to week. I'm caught up on Hijack and saw Silo.

Point being, the fact I saw no word of mouth or marketing probably makes it obvious to me why whatever this show is failed lol. I was curious if it was good reading the article until it said it ends in a cliffhanger. So no reason to watch lmao

Same, I’m waiting foundation right now for tonight’s episode, I finished silo last week. I’m in late season 2 of See.

Is Hijack worth checking out?

I like it. It's a pretty strong show from a "what the heck is going to happen" pov. Idk if that's been exaggerated because I watched it week to week but it is a solid show for sure. Its certainly better than Silo was. I still think For All Mankind is the best show show on Apple TV (Ted Lasso aside lol) though. Foundation is really good but some of the moments that drag REALLY drag. I'd love if it was almost exclusively about Lee Pace and his dynasty lol

It's mostly decent, some interesting twists, but also plenty of dumb stuff in it too. It's only 7 episodes, so even if you don't end up liking it you haven't wasted much time!

When I open AppleTV+ I feel like I’m looking into an alternate timeline of movie and TV shows. So much random stuff I’ve never heard of with famous people in them.
