Best movies and shows on Apple TV+ right now, ranked
Apple TV+ is built around its own originals, plus a smaller, rotating set of licensed films. Here are the highest-rated series and films on the service, all included with an Apple TV+ subscription in the US. Titles you can only rent or buy in the Apple TV app aren’t counted.
How this is ranked: when a title has at least 5 ratings from Wochly users, its score is their average. Otherwise we use TMDB’s user rating weighted by how many people voted, so a title with a handful of votes can’t outrank an established favorite. Community ratings are still sparse for Apple TV+, so most scores below are the weighted TMDB signal (marked “TMDB, weighted”); green scores come from Wochly users. Availability comes from JustWatch via TMDB and is re-checked every few hours.
