7 / 10
For those starved of Apple TV (the pour souls also missing “Ted Lasso”), “Schmigadoon,” is a TV series that basically smashed up the plot of “Am American Werewolf in London” with the book to the 1947 Broadway musical “Brigadoon,” best known for its stellar score (“Almost Like Being in Love”) and insanely improbable book, even by the standards of so-called Golden Age musicals.
