I’ve only watched handful of drams on Apple TV+. I can recommend The Morning Show. When gathering the list by IMDb score, I was very surprised how many dramas received more than 7.5 with four even receiving a score of 8 or more. Seems like I’ve been missing out. See the table below or read short synopsis of each below the table.
