by

Time and again, I find myself impressed by the exceptional quality that Apple TV+ consistently delivers in the realm of streaming services. Despite its smaller scale compared to some others, it more than holds its own when it comes to delivering high-quality content, often surpassing them. A prime example is the return of one of its most popular shows, Severance, after a three-year break. This comeback serves as a stark reminder of the sheer brilliance that resides within the platform’s collection of shows and films.

With February drawing near, lots of viewers are searching for a suitable watch for Valentine’s Day. Lucky for us, Apple TV+ offers several choices that should definitely cater to the romantic mood of the season. However, there will be alternative options too for those who wish to avoid celebrating the holiday. Regardless of whether you’re in the mood for love or something entirely new, the platform has got you covered!

‘Love You to Death’ (Season 1)

Stream on February 5

The Spanish romantic comedy series titled “Love You to Death” tells the story of Raúl (Joan Amargós), a man known for his cautious nature, who unexpectedly learns he has heart cancer. After receiving this shocking news, Raúl rekindles an old friendship with Marta (Verónica Echegui), a woman who embodies freedom and spontaneity, who recently discovered she is pregnant but lacks a partner or boyfriend.

The bond between them revives as it appears destiny has drawn them close once more. This leaves both Marta and Raúl contemplating their perspectives on love, for Marta fears commitment deeply, while Raúl yearns for the affection he’s yet to encounter in his life. With these recent changes in their lives, one might wonder if their rekindled relationship is a sign of some cosmic plan that binds them together. Time will unravel this mystery. Catch Love You to Death on February 5.

‘The Gorge’

Stream on February 14

Titled “The Gorge” and helmed by Scott Derrickson (director) and Zach Dean (writer), this work is an exhilarating survival-action thriller that traces the journey of two elite operatives, Levi (portrayed by Miles Teller) and Drasa (played by Anya Taylor-Joy). Each hired separately by distinct organizations, they are tasked with securing opposite ends of a baffling chasm, often referred to as a portal to Hell. Their assignment is not to prevent anything from entering but rather to ensure that whatever lies beneath stays contained. For the duration of 365 days, they are warned against any form of communication with anyone.

In the tale of “The Gorge,” my character, Levi, and I, Drasa, initially adhere to our strict instructions, yet we eventually find ourselves breaking them by exchanging secret messages through binoculars. This clandestine communication inevitably fosters a deep bond between us, adding complexity to our predicament. As our mission unfolds, it becomes apparent that whatever lies in the gorge below is desperate to break free. Consequently, it falls upon Levi and me to collaborate effectively to thwart this escape. Catch “The Gorge” on February 14, as we navigate this perilous situation together!

‘Surface’ (Season 2)

Stream on February 21

As a movie enthusiast, I’d describe “Surface” as a gripping psychological thriller that unfolds from my perspective. It revolves around me, Sophie, played by the talented Gugu Mbatha-Raw. In a heart-wrenching turn of events, I attempt to take my own life but miraculously survive. However, there’s a twist – I lose all my recent memories, leaving me clueless about why I felt compelled to jump in the first place.

With the unwavering support of my husband, James (Oliver Jackson-Cohen), and my closest friends, I embark on a challenging journey to reassemble the fragments of my life. But as I delve deeper into this quest, I can’t help but doubt the authenticity of my seemingly perfect existence.

In its second run, the show presents even more mysteries as Sophie ventures to London, aiming to solve her personal enigmas. Guided by scant evidence, she delves into the upper echelons of British high society and unearths a potential link to an heiress. Yet, when a journalist she thought was collaborating with her to expose a sensational scandal reaches out, she recognizes that those she has grown close to might be the ones she should be suspicious of. Don’t miss Surface Season 2, streaming on February 21.
