Apple TV+ scores its most-watched weekend since the streaming service debuted

Apple has hired an executive to license its original productions to other companies, according to Bloomberg.

Apple TV+ has just scored its most-watched weekend since the 15-month-old service launched, reports Variety.

Quoting unnamed “company insiders,” the article says that, powered by the premiere of the Justin Timberlake-starting “Palmer,” Apple TV+ saw a 33% increase over average viewers. The sophomore seasons of M. Night Shyamalan’s “Servant” and “Dickinson.,” as well as big international numbers for “Losing Alice,” also helped.

Apple TV+ is available on the Apple TV app in over 100 countries and regions, on over 1 billion screens, including iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, iPod touch, Mac, select Samsung, LG, Sony, and VIZIO smart TVs, Amazon Fire TV and Roku devices, PlayStation and Xbox consoles, and at tv.apple.com, for US$4.99 per month with a seven-day free trial. For a limited time, customers who purchase a new iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, Mac, or iPod touch can enjoy one year of Apple TV+ for free. This special offer is good for three months after the first activation of the eligible device. For more information, visit apple.com/tvpr and offers.appletvapp.apple and see the full list of supported devices.
