At the cross-section of terrifying horror and eye-rolling dry humor comes Apple TV's latest hit hybrid series, Widow's Bay. Created by Katie Dippold, the show follows well-meaning but desperate mayor Tom Loftis (Matthew Rhys) of the remote, isolated titular New England town as he attempts to transform the sleepy, superstitious community into the next big tourist hotspot. But as visitors descend upon the island, a long-standing curse plagues their progress, and each decision Tom makes leads to a terrifying result. While the premise may not sound funny, Widow's Bay's eccentric characters, grandiose situations, and referential storytelling lead to some sidesplitting moments. Even the show's logo is reminiscent of Stephen King.
