In the U.S., Apple TV is priced at $12.99 per month or $129 per year, with a free one-week trial available for new subscribers. Apple TV is also included in Apple One and Peacock bundles, with all of the options outlined on Apple's website.

You can stream Apple TV in the Apple TV app, which is available on the iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple TV 4K, Apple Vision Pro, Android, PlayStation, Xbox, Roku, Amazon Fire TV, select smart TVs, on the web at tv.apple.com, and more.

Silo

"Silo" follows the lives of 10,000 people living in an underground bunker to escape the seemingly toxic wasteland outside. The people are unaware of why the silo was built, and those who seek the truth face deadly consequences. Rebecca Ferguson stars as Juliette Nichols, an engineer who attempts to unravel the mysteries surrounding the silo following a loved one's murder. The show is based on Hugh Howey's best-selling book series.

Apple says the upcoming "Silo" season "continues the saga of a dystopian society."

"In the present, Juliette Nichols (Rebecca Ferguson) survives her forced 'cleaning' but returns with memory loss as the silo recovers from rebellion and faces a dangerous new threat," says Apple. "Meanwhile, in the 'Before Times,' journalist Helen Drew (Jessica Henwick) and Congressman Daniel Keene (Ashley Zukerman) uncover a conspiracy that pulls them into a chain of events with catastrophic, irreversible consequences."


New episodes of "Silo" will be released every Friday from July 3 through September 4.

Apple already renewed "Silo" for a fourth and final season too.

"With the final two chapters of 'Silo,' we can't wait to give fans of the show an incredibly satisfying conclusion to the many mysteries and unanswered questions contained within the walls of these silos," said showrunner and executive producer Graham Yost, regarding the third and fourth seasons of the show.

Ted Lasso

"Ted Lasso" is one of the most popular shows ever released on the Apple TV streaming service. The eponymous character Ted Lasso, played by Jason Sudeikis, starts off as a small-time football coach from Kansas who is hired to coach a professional soccer team in England, despite having no experience coaching soccer.

In the fourth season, Apple says Lasso returns to England to take on his biggest challenge yet: coaching a second division women's soccer team.

"Throughout the course of the season, Ted and the team learn to leap before they look, taking chances they never thought they would," said Apple.


New episodes of "Ted Lasso" will be released every Wednesday from August 5 through October 7.

Fan favorites such as Hannah Waddingham, Juno Temple, Brett Goldstein, Brendan Hunt, and Jeremy Swift are all set to return in the fourth season.

The third season of "Ted Lasso" was released in 2023, so there has been a long wait for a fourth season. The series has won several major awards since it debuted in 2020, with its overall positive tone making it a popular comfort show.

I love Silo and I see another season of Monarch dropped. I still saw a renewal price of $99 per year on my iPhone so took advantage of that before it disappeared.

Not watching Apple TV programs.

Too little, too late, and not worth the cost if you consider that you are funding all of the loser Apple nanny TV programs.

Might try if we get another 3 months free offer.
Too late? What are you talking about? Apple TV's series and movies have been *consistently* high quality right from the start. I've only watched a fraction of them and with very few exceptions I've absolutely loved them all.
 
I have great memories of watching Ted Lasso at my old apartment while drinking a pint (so many scenes at the pub made me want a tall stout).
 
Now when Womens's Champion Leaugue is almost over - the reason I have the cheapest Disney subsscrption, and watch some of the series there.

So I might subscr. a few month of Apple TV - When, I have time for any TV series.
Woul'd be fun to see what happened in Silo and For all Mankind.
 
Silo was great, but this new season took forever and now I've lost interest.
This happens with me all the time, but I just rewatch the previous seasons before the new season.

I just rewatched all of GOT, and will rewatch s1 and s2 of House of the Dragon before s3.

Agreed. No spoilers for anyone but a certain event that happened halfway through season 2 just went on and on.

But isn’t this the issue with streaming in general?

Stories that would’ve made a great limited series are instead expanded to 10 hours.

Then if they’re a hit, they are expanded beyond the show runner’s original intention.

‘The Bear’ is the most egregious example of this imho.

Anyway.

Can’t wait for silo season 3 - and 4 - as s2 ended on an incredible cliffhanger & that’s it, it’s completed filming so we can watch it knowing it’s a completed story.

Ted Lasso was patchy even from season 2, but it had a huge amount of heart and great performances.

And if the role of Ted this time is to help set up the women’s Richmond team it feels like a) there’s another valid story to tell and b) it could key up a spin off.
 
Two great shows as complete opposites. Seems Silo Season 3 will be more of a flashback season to fill in so many questions.

Ted Lasso I felt had a strong wrap-up with Season 3. And I thought the original season concept was that he was going to coach a girls team in the U.S. but I guess he stays in jolly old England.
