Have you seen these shows? Critics say you should.

When the Apple TV+ app launched in 2019, the idea behind it sounded like a business failure. The service was set up to produce and stream only original content, with a focus on quality over quantity. While such an approach sounded perfect to a user, it was quite new to the industry where the number of new content was directly tied to the number of users consuming it, and therefore profits.

However, as the platform approaches its 3-year anniversary, we can say that the experiment has been a huge success. Revenues from the app are growing, surpassing those of some other streaming platforms, and more importantly, many of the shows are now widely regarded as worthy of praise and your time.

The Apple TV+ dramedy CODA became the sensation of the 2022 Academy Awards, winning a number of awards counting Best Picture, the first for a streaming service. And many Apple TV+ shows have been critically and commercially acclaimed.

But which are the best of the best? According to critics at Rotten Tomatoes, there are only three Apple TV+ shows that deserve a 100% score. Here they are.
