Apple TV has had an especially strong lineup of shows recently, and its latest premiere, the returning detective series Sugar, keeps that trend going.
When Apple TV first launched in 2019, its lineup of original content received mixed critical reception. That trend continued for years, as Apple premiered occasional standouts alongside arguably mediocre fare.
But recently, Apple’s ability to deliver critical hits—that increasingly become mainstream hits—has improved significantly.
Here’s a Rotten Tomatoes sampling of Apple TV series from April and May:
This month’s Cape Fear limited series received more mixed reviews, but even its 76% score is solid.
Apple has long said it wants to create the best shows and movies, not the most. Its current hit streak proves it’s doing a good job of that.
And the streamer’s latest premiere, Sugar, is the latest evidence of that.
Apple TV’s newest premiere is Sugar season 2, which arrived last Friday to wide acclaim.
The latest season of the LA-based detective series boasts a 96% Rotten Tomatoes score and a 94% Popcornmeter.
Sugar has proven a popular watch too. It shot up Apple’s Top 10 charts after premiering, and remains one of the most-watched series. Currently only Widow’s Bay is ahead on the US charts.
Here’s Sugar’s official summary, followed by the latest trailer:
Colin Farrell is John Sugar, a dashing private eye navigating the dark corners of sunny LA. Though he sees only the good in humanity, Sugar is haunted by a secret too dangerous to expose.
Apple has an exciting lineup still coming too. Silo season 3 arrives next week, the Anya Taylor-Joy thriller Lucky shortly after that, and Ted Lasso’s return is nearly here too.
After a steep learning curve in its early years, Apple TV really seems to be on a roll.

Apple TV is available for $12.99 per month, or you can get it discounted through the Apple One bundle.
