I recall watching Hello Tomorrow which was a quirky atompunk themed comedy from Apple. It wasn’t perfect, it wasn’t especially funny - but it had a charismatic affable liar as a lead that you found sympathetic despite his sleaze, and gave huge pre-war Fallout vibes. Apple silently cancelled it some time ago.
I would also argue Peacock’s attempt at Brave New World. Reimagined for the modern era (because really it had to be) and probably took more from Westworld than it did Brave New World, but it was doomed by being a Peacock original.


There’s a counter-narrative where the writers’ strike was a convenient scapegoat for a production that was always going to be a trainwreck. IIRC they were going to turn the first season’s titular heroes into villains and have an all-new cast of supers oppose them, and the obvious response of ‘what no ew’ saw them scramble to make up the trainwreck we got instead.
On the plus size, Zachary Quinto’s career took off.
