Patricia Arquette shines in Apple TV+'s offbeat comedy 'High Desert'
TL;DR
Apple TV+’s High Desert starts as a tale of a recovering addict barely making ends meet, but gradually blossoms into a bracingly bizarre mystery, in the tradition of sun-baked neo-noirs like The Big Lebowski or Inherent Vice. Patricia Arquette plays Peggy, a hot mess who can’t help but slosh her Peggy-ness all over the place, and Brad Garrett plays Bruce, a floundering private investigator. The show’s early aimlessness evolves into a likable shagginess, warmed by a surprising amount of heart, and High Desert gleefully ramps up the absurdity with each passing episode.
