Apple TV has become one of the world’s go-to streaming services for the best sci-fi shows, but the platform also offers a host of other originals for fans of all genres. One of Apple TV’s biggest properties that first drew people to the platform back in 2020 was Ted Lasso, which is finally set to return with Season 4 this summer after going on a three-year hiatus. Another Apple TV series that was on the air even before Ted Lasso was See, which was led by Jason Momoa, who returned to the platform last year to star in one of the biggest passion projects of his career, Chief of War. The show was met with praise from both critics and audiences, hailed as the perfect blend of other historical epics like Shōgun and Game of Thrones.
Last year, Apple TV returned to the sci-fi genre to deliver one of its most memorable hits in Pluribus, which hails from Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan. Pluribus is the second-best sci-fi show Apple TV has ever released, following only behind Severance, which stars Adam Scott and is directed by Ben Stiller. After a three-year wait, Severance returned to Apple TV at the start of 2025 for its second season, and the show was picked up for Season 3 on the day of its Season 2 finale. It’s still unclear at this time when Severance Season 3 is going to be released, though — it’s been well over a year since Season 2 concluded, and production on Season 3 seemingly won’t begin until later this summer. Before Severance’s inevitable return, fans can’t stop watching the show, which has led it back into the Apple TV global top 10 in more than 15 countries around the world.
What Is ‘Severance’ About?
Severance follows a group of employees who work at a mysterious place called Lumon Industries, but they’ve opted to undergo a procedure that completely severs their work lives and personal lives, making the memories of each completely inaccessible to their counterparts. The show may not be hard sci-fi — there are no futuristic spaceships or vaporizing laser guns — but it’s quite dystopian in its version of how it portrays corporate America. Written and created by Dan Erickson, Severance is like a Black Mirror episode come to life over multiple seasons.
Check out the first two seasons of Severance on Apple TV, and stay tuned to Collider for more updates and coverage of Season 3.
