Lessons in Chemistry, AppleTV

[+ BenjaminNicholas]

The singular season ended about a week ago and I just caught up with the whole thing on the last flight.  

Set in the '50s and '60s, the show centers around the intellect, politics and relationship of two chemists.  I would consider the script a fresh mix of drama, comedy and quirk.

Based on an existing book, Lessons has typical Apple production values (superb) and great acting by a talented ensemble.

If you're looking for the next show to watch, this one is smart and an easy ride.  I don't see them needing or going for a second season.

A very sweet show.  Can’t go wrong with a wonderful dog and a cute kid.
