The best Apple TV shows you can stream right now on the Apple TV Plus streaming service.
Want to watch the best Apple TV shows on Apple TV Plus? We’re here to help. While Apple’s library isn’t nearly as deep as its competitors on Netflix or Amazon Prime Video, every month it grows with new and splashy originals, often featuring big stars. It’s slowly evolving into a great service. At the time of publication, too, Apple is still offering a year of the Apple TV Plus service for free when you buy an eligible device – so you check out this list of the best Apple TV Plus shows without spending extra, should you be in the market for a new iPhone. Apple TV’s shows are notably star-studded, which has helped them capture attention in the streaming landscape. The platform includes award-winning prestige dramas featuring A-listers like Jennifer Aniston, Chris Evans and Octavia Spencer, as well as equally big filmmakers behind the scenes, like Steven Spielberg and M. Night Shyamalan. Apple TV Plus is focused on quality over quantity, really – which is novel approach considering the output of its competitors. Since it lacks archive content, too, it has to be. While Apple TV Plus may lack a flagship show like The Mandalorian that can act as a big crossover smash hit, collectively the service is well worth a look – especially now it’s easier to get than ever, with the Apple TV app being available on PlayStation and Xbox as well as Apple tablets, phones, smart TVs and other devices. These are the best Apple TV Plus shows streaming right now. A comedy series created by It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia’s Rob McElhenney and Charlie Day, Mythic Quest showed that Apple means business when it comes to sitcoms – it’s truly terrific, and our only complaint is that this first season contained just nine short episodes (with two specials releasing later). The second season has now landed, at least, which is good news for fans of this great Apple sitcom. Set in a fictional video game studio which produces a huge World of Warcraft-style MMORPG called Mythic Quest, the show stars McElhenney as the game’s creator, Ian Grimm, while the ‘Raven’s Banquet’ from the title is the name of the long-awaited expansion to the game, which launches in the first episode of the show. This is a hilarious workplace comedy, mixed with a fairly solid lampooning of games industry from the minds behind Paddy’s Pub. If you only watch one episode, check out episode 5 – ‘A Dark Quiet Death’. It’s almost like an episode of Black Mirror… The streaming giant’s first non-English language series was met with rave reviews from critics and audiences alike, and has been renewed by Apple for a second season – so, if you haven’t yet gotten hooked, now’s the time to catch up with the twisty-turny Israeli espionage thriller.
