Unfortunately for viewers who like to try new shows and are always looking for something new, streaming platforms and studios aren't very generous when it comes to renewing their shows. This has already been pointed out by Netflix viewers who are unhappy with unfair and abrupt cancellations, but the same can be said of most platforms.
Apple TV Plus, however, is a different story. Out of the 10 TV shows that the network has had to make a decision on so far in 2024, only 3 have been canceled, while 7 have been renewed. Check out the list below to see which ones didn't survive.

WME Adaptation Authorities on the IP Frenzy, a Department Shift and What’s In (and Out) in Hollywood
Hilary Zaitz Michael was Sylvie Rabineau’s first hire once her literary agency, Rabineau Wachter Sanford & Gillett, was acquired by WME eight years ago. In the years since, the two, along with partner Jill Holwager Gillett and a department that’s since expanded to 11 agents, have had a front row seat to Hollywood’s intellectual property boom, which only accelerated during the pandemic.
In fact, in the last year alone, their roster has kept them inordinately busy, from Laura Lippman’s Prom Mom and Rebecca Serle’s One Italian Summer being optioned by Universal and Paramount, respectively, to Laura Dave (The Last Thing He Told Me) and Bryan Lee O’Malley (Scott Pilgrim Takes Off) adapting their own material. The breadth of their work also prompted a rebranding of what was formerly the literary packaging department, and now is the literary media one.

The tracklist for the “Mean Girls” soundtrack is out, and it turns out some of the songs “can’t sit with” others that have made it into Tina Fey’s film adaptation of the Broadway musical, which comes out Jan. 15.
The fourth iteration of the high school dramedy — it’s adapted from the stage musical that was based on the 2004 original film which was adapted from the 2002 parenting book “Queen Bees and Wannabes” by Rosalind Weisman — stars Angourie Rice (“The Last Thing He Told Me”) as Cady Haron, Auli’i Cravalho as Janice and Jaquel Spivey (lead in “A Strange Loop” on Broadway) as Damien.
Renée Rapp, who played Regina George in the musical, will reprise her role in the film. Avantika (“Senior Year”) will play Karen and Bebe Wood will play Gretchen.

The world’s most valuable company narrowly topped estimates but saw another revenue dip — its fourth in a row — with sales down about 1% to $89.5 billion for its fiscal fourth quarter.
Eps at $1.46 was up 13% percent year-on-year for the three months ended in September, also a beat. Yet investors had hoped for a bit more from the tech giant, which saw its shares dip 1% after the bell. Apple stock, which has seen a massive run-up this year, closed 2% higher at about $177 for the session.
Revenue from iPhones, about half of Apple‘s total business, was $43.8 billion, up from $42.6 billiion, and a record. The September quarter included about a week of new iPhone 15 sales.
Mac and iPad sales fell — Mac down by 33% to $7.4 billion, and iPad by 10% to $6.4 billion. Revenue for Wearables, Home & Accessories eased 3% to $9.3 billion.

Since its launch in November 2019, Apple TV+ has been one of the — is not the — best value in streaming. However, almost exactly one year after a $2 price increase, the platform is raising costs again, this time going from $6.99 to $9.99 for a monthly subscription and $69 to $99 per year; this represents a 43% increase in price. Before October 2022, the Apple TV+ rate had been just $4.99 monthly and $49.99 annually, therefore, the new price more than doubles what the cost had been just over one year ago.
Apple TV+ is raising its rate by 43% to put it more in line with other premium streaming services. The streaming service has long produced high-quality originals, but its library was far smaller than most of its competitors. The tech giant is also increasing the cost of Apple Arcade, News+, and the Apple One bundle. 7-Day Free Trial $9.99+ / month apple.com Why Is Apple TV+ Increasing Its Prices?

The world’s most valuable tech company saw sales and profit for the three months ended in June beat on the top and bottom line although revenue was sluggish, down 1% at $81.8 billion. Earnings of $1.26 per share beat the $1.19 anticipated.
Revenue from iPhones, which are half of Apple’s total business, was $39.7 billion — below expectations and off 2% from the year ago. June can be a weak iPhone quarter ahead the fall when Apple usually unveils its new model, in this case the iPhone 15. The June quarter is Apple’s fiscal third quarter.
But Services, the fast-growing division that houses Apple TV+ alongside a dozen other businesses — Apple Music, Apple Fitness, Apple Arcade, Apple Podcasts, Apple Books, Apple Cloud and the Apple App Store to name a few – saw sales of $21.2 billion, up more than 8% year-over year.

It’s a very thin needle to thread for the largest company in the world to position one of its divisions as an underdog, yet that is exactly what Apple has done with its small but mighty streaming service Apple TV+. With the smallest library of all of the premium platforms, Apple TV+ can’t compete with the likes of Netflix, Max, and Hulu when it comes to total viewing time or number of titles, but increasingly, the service is becoming home to the most popular original series and movies on streaming.

When it comes to the biggest names in streaming, it’s getting harder and harder to leave out Apple, especially after Apple TV+’s banner second quarter.
Between April and June, Apple TV+ made more appearances on Whip Media’s weekly SVOD TV ranker, which looks at the 10 most-streamed shows in the U.S. each week, than any other service.
Apple TV+ cracked Whip Media’s TV ranker 31 times during the second quarter, which was an 82% increase from its 17 appearances in Q1. Those 31 appearances also put Apple TV+ ahead of Netflix (26 appearances) and Max (18 appearances), as well as first-quarter streaming king Paramount+, which made Whip Media’s TV ranker 16 times during the second quarter.
There were five shows responsible for Apple’s big quarter: “Ted Lasso,” “Silo,” “Schmigadoon!,...

With all the strike talk about low pay, WGA and SAG-AFTRA members are starting to play a little show me yours and I’ll show you mine when it comes to their (paltry) residual checks.
Just about everyone has a story to share about how their residuals took a serious nose dive with the advent of new media. A recent story in The New Yorker about how actors on the once successful Orange is the New Black never enjoyed a financial windfall only exacerbated the angst felt by actors and writers these days.
Here’s a sampling of their stories:
Jason Belleville (Home Economics): “I wrote on the first season of Cobra Kai, which is one of the biggest shows in Netflix history. I think I have more money in my pockets right now than any residuals I’ve seen from that. I was also was an executive producer...

Exclusive: Apple TV+ Has Grown Its Library by 35% in the Past Year as Streamer Hits Viewership Highs
When it comes to keeping subscribers happy and engaged, one of the tried and true methods that streaming services have employed since the dawn of this era of media is to offer libraries so chock full of steady streams of content, that it would be impossible for any one viewer to ever watch it all. However, one subscription video-on-demand (SVOD) service has bucked that trend, and in doing so has remained relatively small in comparison to its competitors, but is becoming increasingly invaluable to contentious customers. By keeping its streaming offerings limited — and not to mention star-studded — Apple TV+ has cultivated a reputation for consistently delivering some of the best series and films on streaming without the unnecessary swings and misses that other streamers force viewers to wade through.

Harrison Ford was widely expected to land his first Emmy nomination this year for his two roles in Shrinking and 1923. Instead, he failed to earn a nod for either performance despite Shrinking landing multiple nods. 1923, on the other hand, is just one of several Taylor Sheridan shows that were shut out from this year’s Emmy nominations (no nods for stars Ford or Helen Mirren), with hit series Yellowstone failing to land any Emmy noms for the second year in a row and new entry Tulsa King only scoring one nod, for stunt coordination.
In a recent The Hollywood Reporter cover story, Sheridan shrugged off his Emmys snub streak, suggesting he values his shows promoting certain ideals instead and bluntly adding, “you can keep your fucking award.”
Other series that failed to score any nominations, despite experts’ predictions, include the final season of FX’s Snowfall, never recognized by the...
