Apple TV Report Card 2026: Do prestige TV shows make up for a tiny library?
Our 2026 streaming report card for Apple TV grades the platform on its price, originals, library, interface and live content.
Apple TV boasts a strong lineup of high-quality original programming, including hits like "Severance," "The Morning Show," "Ted Lasso," and "Slow Horses." However, the service's library is relatively limited compared to competitors, with a focus on Apple-made content rather than a broad array of television and movies. The pricing is straightforward at $14.99 per month, but the lack of live TV options and older shows restricts its appeal.
Apple TV stands out with its clean interface and easy navigation, making it a solid choice for those seeking prestige TV shows, despite its smaller library.
