Best TV Shows on Apple TV+ in 2023

6. Hello Tomorrow! Season 1

Apple TV+ moves into the sci-fi comedy genre with this entirely original production. Hello Tomorrow! boasts a great ensemble cast of movie stars and TV’s finest, pushing a visually unique aesthetic that blends fifties nostalgia with a futuristic setting. The critics have been relatively lukewarm about this original series that looks at traveling salesmen selling timeshares on the moon.

Official Premise: In a retro-futuristic world, charismatic salesman Jack Billings (Billy Crudup) leads a team of fellow sales associates determined to revitalize their customers’ lives by hawking timeshares on the moon.

Cast: Billy Crudup, Hank Azaria, Haneefah Wood, Alison Pill, Jacki Weaver, W. Earl Brown

IMDB score: 6.3/10

Rotten Tomatoes: 57%

5. Liaison Season 1

The first British-French co-production for Apple TV+ stars the multilingual Hollywood heartthrobs Vincent Cassel and Eva Green. This globe-trotting espionage thriller focuses on Syrian hackers who hold key information on upcoming cyber-attacks in London. The Brits and the French are after these hackers and the all-important details of the next terrorist attack. Early reviews of Liaison have been less than promising, though.

Official Premise: Two agents and former lovers must work together to combat international cyberattacks threatening the UK while confronting the buried secrets of their destructive relationship.

4. Truth Be Told Season 3

The podcast detective Poppy Scoville (Octavia Spencer) returns for a third outing in this popular crime drama series, one of the first shows to be released by Apple TV+ in 2019. The series concentrates on Poppy’s involvement in a new case each season. In season three, Poppy investigates missing teens in the local area and soon uncovers a dark criminal underworld.

Official Premise: In season three, true crime podcaster Poppy Scoville (Spencer), frustrated by the lack of media attention for young missing Black girls, teams up with an unorthodox Principal (Union) to keep the victims’ names in the public eye, while chasing down leads to a suspected sex trafficking ring that may have ensnared them.

Cast: Octavia Spencer, Gabrielle Union, Mekhi Phifer, Tracie Thoms, Haneefah Wood, Ron Cephas Jones

Rotten Tomatoes: not enough ratings to calculate a score yet

3. Dear Edward Season 1

Based on the hugely successful novel by Ann Napolitano, this heart-wrenching drama series tells the story of those affected by a horrific plane crash that devastates the nation. Edward Adler is the only survivor of this crash, hailed as a miracle boy; he must learn to live without his immediate family while being perceived as a celebrity. The show is a real tear-jerker, with many emotional plot points and character arcs throughout its ten-episode run.

Official Premise: A 12-year-old boy becomes the lone survivor of a plane crash. As he and the others affected by the tragedy try to make sense of what happened, unexpected friendships, romances, and communities are formed.

2. Servant Season 4

Season 4 marks the concluding chapter of Apple’s complex psychological horror series Servant. The show has confused and entertained viewers since its release in November 2019. Hopefully, the series can end satisfactorily, enlightening us on the many unanswered questions and mysteries. As always, season 4 focuses on the Turner family, who are experiencing strange events in their home after hiring an unusual nanny. Executive produced by M. Night Shyamalan, this twisted cult series continues to shock and surprise as we draw nearer to its finale.

Official Premise: From M. Night Shyamalan, Servant follows a Philadelphia couple in mourning after an unspeakable tragedy creates a rift in their marriage and opens the door for a mysterious force to enter their home.

Rotten Tomatoes: 100%

1. Shrinking Season 1

The gang behind Ted Lasso (Bill Lawrence and Brett Goldstein) and Hollywood rom-com star Jason Segel have struck gold again with this delightful comedy-drama series. Shrinking focuses on Segel’s Jimmy, a therapist that is dealing with severe grief of his own. He decides to try a new tactic at work, with wildly varying results. The series is hilarious and adorable, with one of the best ensemble casts I’ve seen in a long time—a special mention for Harrison Ford as a disgruntled and fragile therapist.

Official Premise: Jimmy is struggling to grieve the loss of his wife while being a dad, friend, and therapist. He decides to try a new approach with everyone in his path: unfiltered, brutal honesty. Can he help himself by helping others? Will it bring him back into the light?

Cast: Jason Segel, Jessica Williams, Harrison Ford, Luke Tennie, Michael Urie, Lukita Maxwell, Christa Miller
