You’ll get more than a good bit of period piece drama when you watch The Essex Serpent on Apple TV Plus. The new series looks like a delicious meal of multiple genres. First off, you’ve got a mystery surrounding a supposed mythical beast that the public believes in — while local pastor (Tom Hiddleston) laughs it all off.
Then, you’ve got a bit of a retroish X-Files, as a slightly more educated Londoner named Cora Seaborne (Claire Danes) has arrived on the scene to investigate the beastly rumors, following the disappearance of a woman.
And while Cora and the man of faith get along — even striking up a friendship over their skepticism — the townsfolk soon think to fit her for a pyre. Yes, it appears the locals will actually blame the investigator for the monster.
At that point, lo and behold, it seems that the pastor can’t help Cora evade accusations. Sounds like another Apple TV Plus winner to us. Read more for everything you need to know about how to watch The Essex Serpent online.
