decidedly adult show, complete with masturbation and
oral sex scenes within the first two hours. If you can
see past all that, though, you’ll find it’s one of the most
watchable shows in Apple TV+’s launch line-up.Dickinson
Dickinson is nominally a look at the young life of the
famously reclusive poet Emily Dickinson, who spent
much of her adult life willingly shut away in a bedroom
in her father’s house. In this whimsical, wonderful,
and anachronistic comedy, though, Apple emphasizes
the timelessness of her poetry and introduces her to
young audiences with a medley of modern elements.
Sure, you’ll see a lot of richly realized 1850s-style
costumes and settings, but there’s also twerking,decidedlyadultshow,completewithmasturbationand
