Seven Apple TV Originals That Never Have a Bad Season
For a relatively young platform, Apple TV has stood out for consistency. Several originals begin strong and sustain that quality across seasons, keeping storytelling sharp and characters interesting rather than fading after an early peak. The list includes Trying, a four-season comedy about adoption that jumps six years ahead in Season 4; Slow Horses, a dry, gripping spy series adapted from Mick Herron’s novels that keeps improving (Season 6 has been filmed and a seventh greenlit); and Foundation, David S.
Goyer’s lavish Isaac Asimov adaptation that grew from a dense first season into a widely lauded third season. Also featured are Shrinking, co-created by Jason Segel, Brett Goldstein, and Bill Lawrence, which balances humor and grief across three seasons; Silo, a claustrophobic post-apocalyptic drama that proved it wasn’t a one-season wonder and has Seasons 3 and 4 confirmed; and Severance, a near-future workplace parable that pushed into darker, stranger territory in its second season.
