I have used this half-price Apple TV deal for two days and I'm already addicted to Pluribus
This half-price Black Friday Apple TV deal is worth it just for the amazing, mind-bending Pluribus. And when you're done watching Rhea Seehorn save the world, you'll still be spoilt for choice.
Move over Flash Gordon, there's only one person who can save the Earth, and it's Kim Wexler. Okay, Rhea Seehorn isn't technically playing her Better Call Saul character, but Vince Gilligan's Pluribus is all the reason you need to take advantage of this half-price Apple TV offer this Black Friday weekend.
Get Apple TV for better than half price this Black Friday, now just $5.99 a month for six months.
Or if you're not transfixed by Pluribus, which sees the bulk of Earth's population forming a hive mind, there's a wealth of other content, including a surprisingly large amount of sci-fi. Separation, Murderbot and other movies and shows will have you regretting you didn't subscribe sooner.
Enjoy six months of Paramount Plus for just $5.99 per month, after which the price rises to $12.99. You can cancel any time, but with so much on offer, I've got the feeling you won't want to.
Apple TV is home to a surprisingly large number of sci-fi shows and movies, and if your tastes run to sci-fi or space, you're bound to find something to watch. It's not your run-of-the-mill popcorn fare, either; there are some genuinely innovative shows such as Severance and, more recently, Pluribus.
This show, from Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan, features Better Call Saul's Rhea Seehorn as a woman who discovers that the world's populace, barring a handful of people, is a hive mind that only wants to make her happy. I suspect it's going to all go a bit Society, but I've been hooked so far.

Chris McMullen is a freelance journalist who, aside from covering games and gaming-related tech, has a taste for horror, sci-fi and the post-apocalyptic. He's currently hooked on Apple TV's Pluribus and is getting increasingly disturbed at where the show will go next.

Even if you're not into sci-fi, there are plenty of other shows and movies to watch. From a dramatic biographical movie about the creation and marketing of Tetris to long-running soccer comedy Ted Lasso, you're spoilt for choice. Apple's Apple Original programming has won over 500 awards, and when you dive into the service's offerings, you'll discover why.
Key features: $5.99 a month for six months, with more sci-fi and space content than you can shake a remote control at, viewable on multiple platforms.
Price history: There have been Apple TV offers before, including free trials, but at over 50% off for six months, this is one of the best deals I've seen.
Review consensus: This is by far my favorite Black Friday deal. Who needs Star Trek (sorry, Paramount Plus) when you've Pluribus and the rest of Apple TV's sci-fi content? Fans agree, as the channel has received some serious praise, online and off.
