The Last Thing He Told Me

A woman develops a surprising connection with her teenage stepdaughter as they investigate the puzzling disappearance of her husband.

This gripping mystery series, starring Jennifer Garner and Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, will keep you guessing until the very end. It’s based on the popular novel by Laura Dave.

When the 7-episode series came out in 2023, opinions were split among critics and viewers. However, it was popular enough to earn a second season, which will be released in February 2026.

Criminal Record

This story centers on two gifted detectives who clash over a decades-old murder case, all while trying to navigate a deeply divided Britain and find some shared understanding.

The crime thriller Criminal Record, which came out in January 2024 and stars Peter Capaldi and Cush Jumbo, was a hit with critics, earning a 90% score on Rotten Tomatoes. If you enjoy realistic and intense crime shows, you’ll likely love it. A second season is planned for release in 2026.

Severance

I’m really excited about this show! It follows Mark, who leads a team where everyone has had their memories split – work life is totally separate from their personal life. But things get crazy when a new coworker shows up outside of work, and it starts them all on a quest to figure out what’s really going on with their jobs. It’s a mind-bending concept and I can’t wait to see how it unfolds!

Apple TV+’s Severance is a highly-rated and award-winning original series. It’s earned a 95% Fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes, won 10 Emmys, and currently ranks among the top TV shows on IMDb. Even though the second season came out almost a year ago, it remains popular with viewers worldwide, consistently appearing on Apple TV’s trending list (according to FlixPatrol).

With a fantastic cast including Adam Scott, Britt Lower, Patricia Arquette, and John Turturro, Severance is widely considered one of the best TV shows of recent years, and possibly even of the 21st century. This modern sci-fi hit is a must-watch and a perfect binge-watching experience on Apple TV.
