With a third season of Silo and more episodes planned for its other shows, Apple TV is clearly dedicated to continuing these stories, solidifying its position as the leading streaming service for this type of content. Although it doesn’t currently have a classic, all-time great sci-fi series, a new show coming in 2026 looks poised to fill that role.
In a recent interview with TopMob, Bart Layton, the writer and director of Crime 101, explained how Chris Hemsworth and Mark Ruffalo’s established working relationship from their time in the Marvel Cinematic Universe influenced his new crime thriller.

Tyree Dillihay directs, and basketball star Stephen Curry produces and also lends his voice to the impressive cast. Gabrielle Union, Aaron Pierre, Nicola Coughlan, David Harbour, Patton Oswalt, Jennifer Hudson, and Caleb McLaughlin (from Stranger Things) are also among the voice actors. McLaughlin stars as Will, a goat, in the lead role.

Parker responded by taking responsibility, saying, “Honestly, it was a mistake on my part. I’ve made a few on this show, and I probably will again.” He explained that the scene had been included in earlier versions of the script but was ultimately cut.
The moments leading up to Gohan’s power increase are the most impactful part of the story. Android 16’s sacrifice and heartfelt speech as he dies are incredibly special, even within the entire history of anime, and especially within Dragon Ball Z. His message to Gohan during the Cell Games feels even more meaningful today than it did 33 years ago, showing just how much depth and insight Akira Toriyama built into his manga, beyond all the action and special effects.
