10 New TV Shows That Are Already Doomed

10. Extrapolations

A rare miss for Apple TV+ on the sci-fi front - given their mesmerising results with For All Mankind, Severance, and most recently Silo - Extrapolations' buzzy cast invited lofty expectations that it just couldn't live up to.

The recently concluded first - and perhaps only - season wasn't wanting for star wattage, yet ultimately failed to offer any fresh or involving perspectives on the climate crisis.

This is a show that makes the mistake of placing so much emphasis on its admittedly important subject that it forgets to be actually interesting or have much in the way of basically compelling human drama. When that happens, even those who agree with the message will start understandably tuning out.

Even the wildly over-qualified cast couldn't do much to save this ambitious yet fundamentally hugely disappointing effort from the great Scott Z. Burns (Contagion).

Apple hasn't yet commented on the status of a potential second season, though it'd shock nobody if this thing was quietly axed given that the completion rate is almost certainly dire.
