Trying — Now Streaming
Apple TV
If you loved the cozy, heartwarming vibes of Ted Lasso or Gilmore Girls, then you absolutely need to add Trying to your watchlist! This highly underrated British comedy-drama is hands down one of the best things on Apple TV+.
We spent the first few seasons falling in love with Nikki and Jason (played by the incredibly charming Esther Smith and Rafe Spall) as they navigated the chaotic, emotional rollercoaster of the adoption process. But brace yourselves, because season 4 takes us on a massive six-year time jump! Now, they are seasoned parents dealing with the ultimate test: raising teenagers. I am completely obsessed with watching them navigate their daughter Princess's sudden desire to connect with her birth mother, and I need to know how this beautiful, dysfunctional family is going to hold it all together. It is the perfect, comforting watch to curl up with after a long day.
Trying stars Esther Smith, Rafe Spall, Sian Brooke, Darren Boyd, Scarlett Rayner, and Cooper Turner.
