Apple TV details its 2026 streaming lineup with a big list of announcements

For much of its existence, Apple’s streaming service has seemed intent on focusing on quality rather than quantity, offering some great shows but often feeling barren compared to competitors like Netflix and Disney. But as Apple TV looks to expand its reach to a larger audienceThe “quantitative” part of this equation appears to have been addressed to some extent. New details of the return series Ted Lasso and sugarApple just announced a slew of titles that will be streaming this year.

Here’s everything Apple announced or detailed just yesterday:

Oh, and season 2 of Monarch: Legacy of Monsters Got a new trailer offering a glimpse of the new big kaiju:

This is something new almost every month, and comes on top of previously known titles coming out this year, like new seasons of criminal records, Your friends and neighbors, For all humanityand The last thing he said to mealong with currently streaming shows including to kidnap, Drops of Godand Shrink. Apple TV is also making a bigger push into live sports with moves like Its agreement with Formula 1which starts this year. (Noticeably absent from these lists: Just what the heck happens Savant?)

Since one of the persistent complaints regarding Apple TV is the lack of things to watch, which is likely one of the reasons it lags behind its streaming competitors, this list of ads seems specifically designed to address that. However, the lineup raises questions about whether Apple can maintain the level of quality expected of it spread across so many projects. Matchbox: The Movie Doesn’t inspire much hope; then again, Apple’s movie offerings have always felt a step or two behind its TV shows.
