I'll go off the standard answers and tell folks to check out The Elephant Queen documentary. only an hour and a half long so won't take up your entire weekend.

Tetris has been my favorite. Cold War espionage mixed with the origins of the game/Gameboy.

The Greatest Beer Run is about a guy (Zac Efron) that drunkenly decides to bring beer to the soldiers fighting in Vietnam.

Both based on true stories.

ETA: Greyhound - Tom Hanks is a navy captain escorting supply ships and fighting U-boats in WW2

If it's not too much of a spoiler, is she called The Elephant Queen due to her size, memory, or ruling over actual elephants?

I have seen Blackbird, Dark Matter, Masters of Air, Tetris, and The Greatest Beer Run. I'll have to check out one of the limited series or documentaries. Thanks for the listing.

Silo is really good, as well as Shrinking. Foundation is also great. Apple TV has some bangers.

Thanks for the heads up. I'm going to watch Charlie Brown Christmas.
Missed it whenever they showed it for free in Dec.

This Best Buy link will get you 3 free months if you currently don’t have it. Just cancel as soon as you set it up and you’ll not have to worry about remembering to cancel it later but will be able to watch until the last day.

Well played, Apple+. I appreciate a good grift.


Here I thought Silo S2 was already complete. I dropped Apple+, after Legacy of Monsters, so hadn't been following the shows.

Well now, I have 2 eps left and a choice to make.
