Stephen King is praising another new Apple TV series. The legendary author is among the many viewers who have enjoyed the streamer’s ten-episode comedic horror series “Widow’s Bay,” in which each installment plays like its own self-contained movie while still dropping hints about the larger story.
Apple TV is on a strong run overall, with recent originals like “Margo’s Got Money Troubles” and “Star City” also gaining traction.
In a new post on X, King singled out the ten-episode crime drama “Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed.”
ScreenRant:
The seminal scribe called the series “very entertaining”, though he takes issue with some “goofy plot holes.” He concludes by underlining the lead character’s occupation, noting, “Copy-editors are an unused fictional resource. Who’s a better detective than a good copy-editor?”
Created by David J. Rosen, “Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed”” stars Orphan Black’s Tatiana Maslany as Paula, a divorced mother who feels a sort of passive dissatisfaction with her life. She finds joy in her conversations with younger camboy Trevor (13 Reasons Why alum Brandon Flynn). But things take a turn one evening when she witnesses Trevor being attacked on camera during one of those conversations.
