Apple TV+ Is a Tough Newcomer in the Streaming Wars
Although Apple TV+ has been offering great content since its official launch back in 2019, the streaming service is still relatively new compared to its rival streamers, which are already huge in the streaming industry. However, it has immediately established itself as one of the best streaming services available today, with a number of its content receiving significant recognitions, includingCODA— an Apple TV+ original comedy-drama that has won Best Picture at the Oscars. Apple TV+ is, of course, widely known for its television shows, butit has also been impressing audiences and critics with its original films. This includes theMartin Scorsese-directed crime dramaKillers of the Flower Moonand theBrad PittandGeorge Clooney-led action comedyWolfs. Some of the streamer’s best feature films includeThe Velvet Underground,The Tragedy of Macbeth,Swan Song,Causeway,Bread & Roses,Blitz, and more.
While the streaming service has made a name for itself on the movie side, it takes greater pride in its immense television series offerings that include critically acclaimed shows likeAcapulco,Bad Sisters,Fraggle Rock: Back to the Rock, andSnoopy in Space. Everything from drama and comedy to horror and thrillers, Apple TV+ is — safe to say — a streamer that keeps on giving. Some of the platform’s best shows includeThe Morning Show,Servant,Silo,Pachinko,Little America,Home Before Dark,Mythic Quest: Raven’s Banquet,The Afterparty, andShining Girls, among others.

Stream all this and more for free on January 4 and 5.
