Reportedly high budget has brought Apple TV+ a lot of prestige, but not a lot of viewers.

Shrinking is incredibly good if you enjoyed Ted Lasso. They characters are real and don't make stupid "ish" decisions because they understand consequences exist. They also dont use movie logic. If something happens, it's not brushed under the rug, but it's also not blown out of proportion. It is dealt with how humans would actually deal with it. The show relies on good characters, and real life issues dealt with in a new goofy way. The only issue I have is they kinda let the train off the rails a little in season two, but it's still very grounded compared to most all other media.

A perfect 5/7
