All Apple TV+ Shows and Movies, Ranked by Tomatometer

Updated October 1, 2020

Apple’s streaming service launched in November 2019 with a suite of buzzy, high-profile shows, including The Morning Show with Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon, Jason Momoa in sci-fi series See, and Hailee Steinfeld as the titular poet in Dickinson. But which series and movies have earned their spot among the best Apple TV+ offerings so far?

The streaming service recently launched animated musical series Central Park, comedy series Trying about Nikki and Jason (Esther Smith and Rafe Spall), a couple who want a baby; movie The Banker, about businessmen Bernard Garrett (Anthony Mackie) and Joe Morris (Samuel L. Jackson), who devise a plan to circumvent the racist establishment of the 1960s; and the story of intrepid kid journalist, Home Before Dark, starring Brooklynn Prince (The Florida Project) and Jim Sturgess (Cloud Atlas).

Some other titles recently added: a new version of Steven Spielberg’s anthology series Amazing Stories; Mythic Quest: Raven’s Banquet (created by Rob McElhenney, Charlie Day, and Megan Ganz, the team known for It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia); from writer–executive producers Kumail Nanjiani and Emily V. Gordon, Little America; and docuseries Visible: Out on Television, about milestones on television for the LGBTQ movement. Series that do not have a Tomatometer score, like Oprah’s Book Club, do not appear on the list.
