With so many original series now available on Apple TV, three shows really rise to the top. Whether you’re looking for what’s currently popular or critically praised classics, these Apple TV series are all great choices to watch this weekend, February 6–8, 2026.
Popular Apple TV+ shows like Shrinking and Hijack are consistently good choices, with new episodes being added regularly. But there’s a lot to enjoy on Apple TV+, and these three picks are some of the top options.
Sugar
Since its release in 2024, Sugar has quickly become a popular crime drama on Apple TV, perfect for watching all at once. With eight fast-moving episodes and a starring performance by Colin Farrell—who has been nominated for an Oscar and an Emmy—it’s a great choice for a weekend binge.
The mystery thriller Sugar has been renewed for a second season, set to premiere on June 19, 2026. The show received a 81% rating on Rotten Tomatoes and centers around John Sugar, a private detective played by Farrell, as he investigates the vanishing granddaughter of a famous Hollywood producer named Olivia. Set in Los Angeles, Sugar also stars Amy Ryan and Anna Gunn.
Your Friends & Neighbors
“Your Friends & Neighbors” is a popular new show on Apple TV starring Jon Hamm, who won an Emmy for his work. The first season came out last year, and a second season is scheduled to premiere on April 3, 2026.
The show Your Friends & Neighbors was popular with viewers, earning an 82% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes and becoming a streaming success on Apple TV in spring 2025. It’s been renewed for a third season before the second season even begins, which suggests the upcoming season will also be well-received.
Jon Hamm stars as Andrew Cooper, a former hedge fund manager who turns to robbing his rich neighbors after losing his job. If you’re a fan of Hamm’s work in shows like Mad Men and Fargo, this Apple TV+ series is definitely worth checking out.
Black Bird
Apple TV+’s Black Bird is a compelling crime thriller and a strong contender for one of the best original series the platform has ever made. The six-episode show stars Taron Egerton and has been critically acclaimed, earning a 98% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Audiences also loved it, giving it a 95% score.
If you have an Apple TV subscription and haven’t watched Black Bird (released in 2022), you’re missing out on a truly great show. The series stars Paul Walter Hauser, who won an Emmy for his performance, and tells the story of Jimmy Keene, played by Taron Egerton. Keene is sentenced to prison but gets a deal from the FBI: he must befriend a suspected serial killer in exchange for a reduced sentence.
