This might be Apple TV+'s "Squid Game" [Apple TV+ review]
"Dr. Brain is South Korean sci-fi done right," says our reviewer, Scout Tafoya, in his first look at the Apple TV+ show that premiered today.
He says the "energetically unhinged" show has the potential to be the next Squid Game -- Netflix's smash-hit show.
"If the exciting pilot is any indication, this could be a wild success for Apple TV+," he writes.
Read the review -- Scout loves this show. Maybe you will too.

One more thing ...
"We've got 25,000 people at Apple. About 10,000 of them are in the stores. And my job is to work with sort of the top 100 people, that's what I do. That doesn't mean they're all vice presidents. Some of them are just key individual contributors. So when a good idea comes, you know, part of my job is to move it around, just see what different people think, get people talking about it, argue with people about it, get ideas moving among that group of 100 people, get different people together to explore different aspects of it quietly, and, you know -- just explore things." -- Steve Jobs
