The series of the season is a horror comedy from Apple with an almost perfect score

AppleTV+ has one of the series of the year, or at least that’s what they seem to think, because they have decided to greenlight a second season shortly after the premiere of its first season. We are talking about The Curse of Widow’s Bay, a series that has gone unnoticed by many people, but that after its premiere on April 29 has managed to gain quite a few followers for one very simple reason: its unique blend of comedy and horror.

A very touristy island

The series, created by Katie Dippold, takes place on an island in New England where, in the town of Widow’s Bay, there is a resurgence thanks to the efforts of its mayor to turn it into an attractive tourist destination. What’s the problem? The other residents of the island believe that the island is cursed and, in general, do not want tourists on their island, so they will ensure that this idea spreads throughout the town and beyond by any means necessary.

With this unique purpose, this first season has created a perfect balance between comedy and horror by making the residents of Widow’s Bay… less than ideal. Something that will continue in the second season, as according to its creator, “the second season will be about how everything is great on the island and there is nothing to worry about”. Something that was to be expected seeing how that is exactly what has been happening so far in the first season.

Because the first season hasn’t even finished yet. It will conclude next Wednesday, June 17, and with a 97% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes, it is the most celebrated series of the season. So if you’re looking for a series right now and you enjoy horror or comedy, you have the perfect series to get hooked on here, because if anything is being demonstrated by AppleTV+, it is that it is the new home of prestige series.
