As the weekend approaches, Apple TV+ is dropping a little gift into your lap – and it’s an offer you won’t want to miss. From December 30th to January 3rd, the streaming service is offering a free trial, giving you access to its vast library of content, including some amazing sci-fi shows.
First off, let’s dive straight into the must-watch list for any self-respecting fan of science fiction. If you’re looking for something to binge, we’ve got you covered with these recommendations:
Apple TV+’s impressive lineup of original content includes several shows that are sure to captivate your attention and leave you yearning for more.
1. **Monarch: Legacy of Monsters**: This series expands Legendary’s cinematic Monsterverse, offering an epic adventure filled with action-packed battles and thrilling twists. It’s set in the wake of the 2014 Godzilla movie, with flashbacks to the late 1950s, allowing Kurt and Wyatt Russell to play the same character at different ages. A second season is on the way, with (as the first season teased) King Kong joining the fun.
2. **Silo**: Although season one has already wrapped up in 2023, Apple TV+ still offers an exclusive window into its world. The show follows people who survive in underground silos after a mysterious event ravages the Earth’s surface. If you get hooked on Silo, be aware that the season two finale isn’t until January 17.
3. **Dark Matter**: This multiverse drama stars Joel Edgerton and offers a unique perspective on the concept of parallel universes. Although it has concluded after four seasons, Dark Matter will still provide plenty of mind-blowing moments for those who enjoy complex storylines.
4. **Servant**: In this psychological thriller from M. Night Shyamalan, mysterious events unfold within a family’s dark past. It’s concluded in 2023, but its conclusion is just the starting point for your journey into the depths of human psychology and the horrors that lurk beneath the surface.
5. **Sugar**: This neo-noir drama directed by Colin Farrell stars him alongside an ensemble cast. The show offers a shocking sci-fi twist you won’t want to miss.
In addition to these exceptional sci-fi shows, Apple TV+ also boasts a range of other original content that isn’t necessarily science fiction but still deserves attention from audiences. Some of the notable non-genre original shows include Ted Lasso, Presumed Innocent, Shrinking, and The Afterparty – along with movies like Napoleon and Killers of the Flower Moon.
If you decide to extend your free trial beyond this weekend, a monthly subscription to Apple TV+ costs $9.99 and includes one week for free.
