Ted Lasso may have as many Emmys as there are AFC Richmond players in a match, but almost four years into the life of Apple TV+, it’s far from the only reason to visit the streamer. Since its launch in 2019, Apple has paid out for starry collaborations with big names in Hollywood both behind and in front of the camera, many of which have now – creatively at least – paid off.
It hasn’t been a straight ascent, but by sticking with the majority of their original shows over multiple season renewals rather than the slash ‘n’ burn approach elsewhere, Apple TV+ has established a healthy slate of acclaimed originals. There’s weird horror Servant, hard sci-fi Foundation, eerie drama Severance, spy thriller Slow Horses, plus real-life dramatisations, and a lot of very decent comedy. We pick our recommendations below.

This one-minute clip from Apple TV+’s Servant season four episode two is creepy, but not in a supernatural way. Instead, it’s creepy as in the entire neighborhood appears to have become infested with bed bugs. But is that really what’s going on? Odds are bed bugs are just a cover for something sinister that’s about to happen to the Turners.
Episode two of the fourth and final season is titled “Itch,” of course, and will find Leanne tormenting Dorothy as chaos overtakes Spruce Street. Episode two will premiere on Friday, January 20, 2023.

Servant is a psychological horror series by Tony Basgallop, produced alongside M. Night Shyamalan, and starring Lauren Ambrose, Toby Kebbell, Nell Tiger Free and Rupert Grint. The fourth season will be streaming on Apple TV+ from January 13th on.
Servant reaches its end in this disquieting, disturbing and sordidly funny fourth season in a series, which, whether we like it or not, has the enormous virtue of being… different and knowing how to turn up where nobody expects, mixing genres, surprising and being scarier than ever as only M. Night Shymalan knows how to do, with that style that is so… Shymalan.
A fourth season with an electrifying start in a changing madness which, with its own style, has known how to delight in a chapter, disgust in the next one, and make us fall in love with sordidness in order to discover in each one of its brief chapters,...

Plot: Following the suspenseful season three finale, season four will bring the final chapter of the Turner story to an epic and emotional conclusion. Leanne’s war with the Church of Lesser Saints heightens, threatening Spruce street, the city of Philadelphia, and beyond. Meanwhile, the shattered Turner family must not only confront the increasing threat of Leanne, but the certain reality that Dorothy is waking up. As the Turner family brownstone continues to crumble, questions are finally answered: who is Leanne Grayson and who is the child in their home?
Review: When Servant first debuted back in 2019, it made me incredibly uncomfortable. With static shots, extreme close-ups, and lingering camera angles, the visual framing of the series was unlike anything else on television. M. Night Shyamalan‘s first foray into episodic storytelling posited the question of what would happen if grieving parents suddenly had their child back but told it...

There's probably a version of "Servant" where the focus remained squarely on Lauren Ambrose's Dorothy Turner and Toby Kebbell's Sean, turning this horror-heavy AppleTV+ series into one much more directly about grief, processing trauma, and moving forward after unspeakable loss of the Turner's young baby, Jericho. But with the early addition of Nell Tiger Free's mysterious nanny, a once-straightforward tale became infinitely more complex ... and maybe supernatural.
Perhaps most well-known for playing Myrcella Baratheon in "Game of Thrones," Free has truly come into her own as the occasionally sympathetic, occasionally sinister Leanne on "Servant." Having played the character for four seasons now, it should come as no surprise that the actor has taken a tremendous amount of ownership over the character. Careful to play her as the hero of her own narrative -- even if it's not quite as simple as that in the big picture --...

It's pretty easy to imagine what the elevator pitch for the AppleTV+ horror series "Servant" was that helped give it the green light back in 2018. A troubled couple, reeling from an unimaginable tragedy that took the life of their infant son, struggle to move on with the help of a "reborn doll" and a mysterious young nanny who shows up on their doorstep. When the inanimate doll somehow turns into a living, breathing infant, the small family is plunged into the midst of much darker and supernatural forces than they ever could've imagined.
Yet for all the buzzworthy names both in the cast -- the show is led by the quartet of Lauren Ambrose, Toby Kebbell, Nell Tiger Free, and Rupert Grint -- and behind the scenes, viewers who've been part of the ride all throughout the last three seasons know that the real draw to this story goes much,...

The new year may have just started, but Lauren Ambrose is already the biggest star of 2023 thanks to her starring roles in the anticipated new seasons of Showtime’s “Yellowjackets”, which returns with new episodes in March, and “Servant”, which ends its run on Apple TV+ starting in January.
When it comes to the former, Ambrose has been added to the ensemble as the adult version of teenage plane crash survivor (and fan favoUrite), Van Palmer, played by Liv Hewson. The news of her joining the cast came after many fans, and even Hewson, suggested that the “Six Feet Under” star would be a perfect addition to the series.
However, when Et’s Will Marfuggi asked Ambrose about the fact that fans have been dream casting older versions of the survivors, she revealed she wasn’t aware that her name was at the top of the list. “No, didn’t know that....

Among them is “Servant,” created by BAFTA nominee Tony Basgallop and executive produced by Oscar nominee M. Night Shyamalan.

The latest project from producer M. Night Shyamalan, the series centers around Sean and Dorothy Turner, a Philadelphia couple struggling with the loss of their baby, Jericho, at just 13 weeks old. The two cope with Jericho's death in very different ways, to say the least. While Sean (Toby Kebbell) does his best to press on, Dorothy (Lauren Ambrose) is so overcome with grief that the family offers her a lifelike doll to help ease her pain. The experiment backfires when a delusional Dorothy clings to the toy and goes so far as to hire a young nanny, Leanne Grayson (Nell Tiger Free), to help with the baby after Dorothy returns to work.

You’ve likely seen the promos for M. Night Shyamalan’s new Apple TV+ series “Servant,” and likely have little idea what it’s about beyond being a creepy story with a creepy doll that’s treated like a real baby. And while that’s pretty much par for the course when it comes to a Shyamalan project, we wanted to give you a better idea of what to expect if you plan on binge-watching the thriller’s first three episodes when they drop on Thanksgiving this Thursday.
So TheWrap went straight to the source and asked “Servant” creator Tony Basgallop and Shyamalan, who executive produces and directed episodes of the show, to tell us where they got the idea for this story about Dorothy Turner (Lauren Ambrose) and Sean Turner (Toby Kebbell), a Philadelphia couple who are in mourning after an unspeakable tragedy creates a rift in their marriage...

The M. Night Shyamalan-produced horror series Servant on Apple TV+ is also stealthily a cooking show.
The following contains spoilers for the first three episodes of Servant.
At first it seemed a little strange that Servant, Apple TV+’s first horror adjacent offering, would premiere on November 28, 2019 a.k.a. Thanksgiving Day. Apple TV+ itself launched with four original series on November 1 so a date closer to a seemingly more appropriate Halloween wasn’t out of the question.
For those who have seen the show’s first three episodes, however, that Thanksgiving release date is starting to make a lot more sense. Yes the M. Night Shyamalan-produced series about a creepy doll and an equally creepy nanny is technically horror. But it also happens to be essentially a straight-up cooking show.
One of Servant’s lead characters Sean Turner (Toby Kebbel) is a professional bon vivant chef.

Servant is set to join the Apple streaming family officially when it premieres on Thursday, November 28. The series, produced by M. Night Shyamalan and showrunner Tony Basgallop, follows a Philadelphia family who welcomes a mysterious young nanny into their home following a horrific tragedy.
Toby Kebbell and Lauren Ambrose star as Sean and Dorothy Turner, a married couple who experience the unthinkable when their infant child Jericho suddenly dies. Dorothy has a difficult time processing the tragedy so the family brings in a realistic Jericho to help transition back into health. But several weeks in to the fake Jericho experiment,...

This Servant review contains no spoilers.
It’s going to be a little while before an Apple TV+ show premieres and the metacommentary focuses on anything other than what it means for the fledgling streaming service’s existence and long term strategy.
That’ll happen when a new streaming service pops up from the ground with no library of content to back it up. Apple TV+ is simply the product of whatever Apple and its headphone jack dongle money can afford to churn out at the moment. When Servant premieres on November 28, it will be Apple TV+’s fifth show, meaning Servant is literally 20% of Apple TV+ at the moment. It’s 99 cents worth of your $4.99 Apple subscription.

We speak with the cast and showrunner of Servant, M. Night Shyamalan and Apple TV+'s new series, and unlock some of its secrets.
We all handle grief differently. For some it can be broken down into five easy steps, but for others it’s messier. In the case of the Turners, the couple at the center of Servant who were once happy young parents, the loss of a child is a downright nightmare with no escape past the denial stage. This is the entry point into M. Night Shyamalan’s new television series for Apple TV+’s Servant, a wicked seeming thriller where there is more than meets the eye. And that includes “the child” they’re still raising in their home.

Apple TV+ twisted thriller series Servant manifests from the mind of M. Night Shyamalan.
Servant marks M. Night Shyamalan’s return to television, a medium in which he last endured the 2016 cancellation of his secretly-post-apocalyptic Fox television series, Wayward Pines, after two seasons. However, Shyamalan didn’t have to wait long for his television hopes to rebound, since he subsequently closed a deal with Apple, which will provide his new thriller series a platform with its November-launching Apple TV+ streaming service.
Shyamalan’s Apple deal yielded a 10-episode straight-to-series order for Servant, teaming him with writer and executive producer Tony Basgallop, of Berlin Station, 24: Legacy, 24: Live Another Day and What Remains fame for the mystery series, described as a “psychological thriller.” Interestingly enough, Shyamalan’s Servant will distinguish itself in terms of format, since – contrary to genre convention – it will manifest as a half-hour series,...
