Apple TV+ hot streak just keeps going with these two new releases

Until recently, Apple TV+ was seen by many as the niche home of . But a growing array of hits over the past year helped lead into Apple’s biggest success yet with Severance’s second season. Now, that hot streak looks set to continue with two new releases hitting Apple TV+ soon.

Shrinking Apple TV+

Apple TV+ has never found greater success than it has right now. And I don’t just mean that because of Severance.

Starting last summer, the streamer has been launching one strong TV debut after another.

It started with , which found a lot of mainstream success—no doubt thanks to Jake Gyllenhaal and its buzzy plot.

Later in the summer, subscribers got to enjoy the delightful comedy from Bill Lawrence and Vince Vaughn.

Then in the fall, some of Apple’s best shows all got new seasons in quick succession. These included:

Slow Horses

Though it wasn’t quite the hit Apple hoped, was still a noteworthy event series for the company.

And all of this led up to , Apple’s biggest triumph yet.

I’m now very excited to start , which just arrived on TV+ as an acclaimed new crime thriller starring Brian Tyree Henry.

The first two episodes drop this Wednesday, March 26 , and it’s hard to find another Apple TV+ show that’s ever received as strong of critical acclaim.

Here are some key quotes from reviews:

Then in just a few weeks, another potential standout series arrives.

Apple TV+ already gave the show an , which is a great sign. But buzz from critics has been encouraging too.

Reviews are still embargoed, but some strong early reactions have slipped through, :

Having seen the first few episodes, it’s a mix of Big Little Lies meets Breaking Bad but with its own unique spin on class, money, and gender dynamics…Your Friends & Neighbors will be your must-see weekly binge of the spring.

Your Friends & Neighbors debuts Friday, April 11 with its first two episodes, with weekly releases thereafter through May 30.

Apple TV+ still is no Netflix in terms of mainstream appeal, and its subscriber numbers are low compared to competitors. But over the past year, the streamer seems to have finally hit its stride in a big way. Severance’s widespread success is evidence of that, but with two more big releases coming soon, we could be looking at a new winning era for Apple’s TV efforts.
