The December 15 premiere of the Mark Wahlberg-starrer “The Family Plan”on Apple TV+ debuted as the most viewed movie ever for the service, and now stands as the most viewed movie in Apple TV+ history, reports Deadline.
And that’s just the beginning of the good news for the streaming service. From Deadline’s report:
° The Jennifer Aniston–Reese Witherspoon “The Morning Show”is the service’s series record holder after its new season that began in September saw audience increases by 20% over its second season.
And that’s not all! Also f° “Monarch: Legacy of Monsters” from Legendary Entertainment, premiered as the No. 1 first season drama on Apple TV, in November.
° “Lessons in Chemistry” became the #1 limited series on Apple TV+ to date, following its October 13 debut.
° The Lionel Messi documentary, “Messi in America,” is on course to net the distinction of becoming the biggest unscripted sport series for the service after premiering October 11. N
° The Emmy-winning space drama “For All Mankind” has beat its previous season numbers in its fourth season.
° The Gary Oldman-starrer “Slow Horses” which just premiered its third season, is pacing to become the largest returning drama in the UK, up 65% there over its second season.
All these shows — plus the Rebecca Ferguson-starrer “Silo,” Idris Elba’s “Hijack,” Sharon Horgan’s “Bad Sisters,” and Jason Sudeikis’ “Ted Lasso,” put Apple TV+’s viewership up by 42% year-over-year in 2023, in over 100 countries. The service doubled the total hours consumed, in year over year comparison.
