Apple TV+ kids series Stillwater won a Peabody Award for excellence in storytelling, and for work that encourages empathy on Thursday. The show is about mindfulness and the judges noted that it “embraces tranquility—and yes, stillness—in a way that television series rarely do, even those aimed at adults.”
