Apple TV+ sports drama “Swagger” brought back memories from his childhood. “My father coached me when I was playing basketball as a youth, and I went on to coach my little brother. So, I know the nervousness before you walk into a gym, the sound of the ball echoing off the walls and the layup lines.

The latest Apple TV+ series, “Swagger,” is a reminder that quality television doesn’t always need a high concept or a clever hook. Character-driven drama will always have a place on the landscape when it’s done this well.
