The Best Apple TV Series to Stream in India, and Which One to Start First

One of the shows Apple TV launched with. Jennifer Aniston plays a morning-news anchor whose co-host is fired over sexual misconduct, and Reese Witherspoon the reporter brought in to replace him. Billy Crudup, as the network's scheming news chief, won the 2020 Emmy for supporting actor in a drama, the first Emmy Apple TV won. Later seasons drift, but the first is a strong, self-contained story.

Ronald D. Moore's alternate history begins with the Soviet Union landing on the Moon first, and follows NASA through the decades of a space race that never ended, each season jumping years ahead. It is the long-haul pick on this list, for viewers who want a series to live with.

Jason Sudeikis plays an American college-football coach hired to manage an English Premier League club he knows nothing about. It won Outstanding Comedy Series in 2021 and 2022, and Sudeikis won lead actor both years. The comedy that made Apple TV's name, and the gentlest show here.

Created by Dan Erickson, with most episodes directed by Ben Stiller, it follows office workers whose memories have been surgically split, so their work selves know nothing of their lives outside. Adam Scott leads. It led the drama field at the 2025 Emmys and won eight, including Britt Lower for lead actress and Tramell Tillman for supporting actor. Two seasons, 19 episodes: start here.

Soo Hugh's adaptation of Min Jin Lee's novel follows four generations of a Korean family across Korea, Japan and the United States, in Korean, Japanese and English. Youn Yuh-jung, who won an Oscar for Minari, plays the family's matriarch in old age. Two seasons, 16 episodes.

Gary Oldman plays Jackson Lamb, the slovenly head of Slough House, where MI5 sends agents who have failed. Adapted from Mick Herron's novels, it is a spy series that is also very funny, and each season is a complete story in six episodes, which makes it the easiest show here to drop into. Saul Metzstein won the 2026 Emmy for directing it.

Sharon Horgan's dark comedy, set in Dublin, follows the five Garvey sisters, four of whom have reasons to want one sister's controlling husband dead, and what happens when he dies. It is adapted from the Belgian series Clan. Two seasons, 18 episodes.

From Ted Lasso's Bill Lawrence and Brett Goldstein, with Jason Segel as a therapist grieving his wife who starts telling his patients exactly what he thinks of them. Harrison Ford plays his senior colleague. The closest thing on this list to Ted Lasso's warmth.

Adapted by Graham Yost from Hugh Howey's novels, it is set among the thousands of people living in a giant underground silo after the surface became toxic. Rebecca Ferguson plays an engineer who starts uncovering what the silo is hiding. Science fiction built as a mystery, best started without knowing more.

The third Second World War series from Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks's team, after Band of Brothers and The Pacific, follows the US bomber crews of the 100th Bomb Group flying over Europe. Austin Butler and Callum Turner lead. Nine episodes, a limited series with a fixed end.

Seth Rogen plays the newly appointed head of Continental Studios, desperate for the approval of the film-makers he is supposed to manage, in a comedy he made with Evan Goldberg. Catherine O'Hara co-stars. It won 13 Emmys in 2025, including Outstanding Comedy Series, the most ever for a comedy's first season. Each episode is a near-standalone half hour.

Vince Gilligan's first series since Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul stars Rhea Seehorn as, in the show's own logline, the most miserable person on Earth, who must save the world from happiness. It won Seehorn the 2026 Emmy for lead actress in a drama and Gilligan the drama writing award. Nine episodes, and the newest show here.
