The series 'Widow’s Bay' just won 14 Emmys, breaking the record for most wins for a comedy, but if you don’t have Apple TV+, you might not have heard of it.
Checkout, a supermarket sitcom on KAN 11 and Netflix, has released its sixth season, featuring a "poetry slam" organized by Shira, the ambitious manager.
