While Apple TV Plus is probably best known for its comfort food comedies<\/a> and big-budget genre swings<\/a>, the streaming service has also steadily built up a lineup of very intense thrillers. The latest is Surface<\/em> \u2014 not to be confused with Suspicion<\/em>, Severance<\/em><\/a>, or Servant<\/em>, also available on the service \u2014 which takes the idea of a mystery to its most extreme conclusion. The early episodes are almost entirely made up of questions and misdirection. I can\u2019t even tell if the show is even any good at this point \u2014 but I know I need to keep watching to find out.<\/p>\n

Surface<\/em> is centered on Sophie (Gugu Mbatha-Raw, who you might remember from Loki<\/em><\/a>, Doctor Who,<\/em> and the best episode of Black Mirror<\/em><\/a>), five months removed from an accident that caused near-complete amnesia. She has no memory of who she is or the people around her and is trying to piece together her life based on all kinds of clues: old phone messages, medical and financial records, brief flashes of dreams or memories, and the various things her friends and family tell her.<\/p>\n

The core mystery, at least initially, has to do with Sophie\u2019s accident. It\u2019s treated as a suicide attempt, with Sophie apparently jumping off of a boat in the middle of nowhere yet miraculously surviving. But almost immediately, she begins to doubt what happened. For starters, her life seems pretty idyllic, with some close friends, a big house, and a well-off husband (played by Oliver Jackson-Cohen), so she doesn\u2019t understand why her past self would want to leave it all. She becomes suspicious pretty quickly. It starts out as small feelings \u2014 supposed friends she doesn\u2019t connect with, clothes that don\u2019t seem to fit right \u2014 but mostly, it\u2019s because nearly everyone in her life is obviously lying to her.<\/p>\n
