As we’ve discussed before, Apple TV+ is one of the most innovative streaming options in gaming.
But currently, any of its shows may not have enough subscribers to qualify for the summer event.
But hopefully that will change in the near future!
Meanwhile, series like “Presumed Innocent,” “Sugar,” “Dark Matter” and “A Place for Women” give subscribers more bang for their buck.
The success of “Presumed Innocent” continues a winning streak for David E. Kelly (“Goliath,” “Big Little Lies,” “The Lincoln Lawyer”) and Jake Gyllenhaal.

After a few years, Gyllenhaal looked like he might be building a career well-deserved with memorable roles in compelling indie films, but now he’s back to making hits.
In the last year alone, “Ambulance,” “Roadhouse” and Guy Ritchie’s “Covenant” have re-established Gyllenhaal as one of Hollywood’s hottest stars.
Now, with “Presumed Innocent,” he’s proven he can bring big-star power to the small screen.
