A couple of interesting Apple TV news bits came out today. First was the reveal that Eternity, the A24 romantic comedy starring Elizabeth Olson, Miles Teller, and Callum Turner is apparently an Apple Original film headed for the service early next year? This news came completely out of the blue – and that’s coming from someone who keeps up with this kind of thing pretty closely. I’m not sure why Apple’s been so quiet about its involvement with this film, but I look forward to watching it on Apple TV soon regardless.
Also, the company has renewed Down Cemetery Road for a second season. The show is based on a series of books by Mick Heron, whose work is also behind long-running Apple Original series Slow Horses. It’s great to see another of Heron’s book series continue to be adapted for the screen, though I wonder if naming the show after the first book might make less sense as time goes on. (Silo avoided this issue by pivoting away from its production title, Wool.)
Regardless, we’re in for an exciting start to the year on Apple TV, with returning series including Tehran (featuring Hugh Laurie this time around), Hijack, The Last Thing He Told Me, Shrinking, and Monarch: Legacy of Monsters. We’ve also got new seasons of Drops of God and Your Friends & Neighbors to look forward to in the spring, alongside Eternity whenever it comes to streaming.
Right now, though, all I can focus on is the countdown to the first season finale of Pluribus. I also just finished listening to The Last Thing He Told Me audiobook in preparation for its sequel novel’s release in January. If you want a preview of what’s coming in the show’s second season, there’s still time to catch up on the books beforehand.
Happy streaming!

I’ve written about my love for the day planning app Structured almost too many times to count. This fall, the team behind Structured came out with a new alarm app that helps you plan your wake up routine with the same intentionality as your day. It’s called Awake, and I had the privilege of reviewing it on MacStories today. Check out the story for more details about why I think it’s the ideal alarm for anyone who needs more than the basics, and give the app a try to help get your day started a little better.

I recently decided to dive into the world of audiobooks, and I am hooked – so much so that I wrote about my new hobby in the latest Club MacStories Monthly Log. I’ve really enjoyed the books I’m reading, and it’s also given me a chance to newly appreciate some of the technologies from Apple and third-party developers that I normally take for granted. I talk all about it in the story, so check it out if you’re so inclined.

Apple released a new sleep scoring system alongside watchOS 26 last month, and I’ve been giving it a try. I’m not the best sleeper, but this new feature has actually helped me improve my relationship with my sleep in unexpected ways. I wrote all about it in the latest Club MacStories Monthly Log, and I’d love it if you checked it out.

I’ve recently fallen in love with the iPhone Air. The phone is just amazing, and it’s solidified something that’s been taking place for a long time: my slow drift from the top tier of Apple’s product offerings to the middle. Due to a combination of factors, I’m no longer someone who automatically goes for the highest-end version of any particular device, whether it be a phone, a laptop, or even my beloved iPad.
I dive deeper into this realization in the latest edition of the Club MacStories Monthly Log, so check out the story if you’re interested. It’s hard to imagine I’m the only one experiencing this, so I’d love to hear from anyone else seeing the same thing in their own setups.

Once again, I had the privilege of reviewing this year’s major visionOS update on MacStories. It’s a great release with a bunch of new features worth diving into:
Testing and reviewing visionOS this summer has been a pleasure, and I’m so grateful I get to cover this platform for my favorite website. You can read my full review on MacStories now.
Also, be sure to check out the other OS 26 reviews from the rest of the team, all of which I got to edit:
It’s new OS week, and this is how we celebrate! Let’s have some fun.
