Apple TV has a spread of original series mid-season right now, but that isn’t stopping the service from premiering even more in April. While For All Mankind Season 5 chugs along, this month will see the conclusions of Shrinking Season 3 and the Imperfect Women miniseries. Your Friends and Neighbors will return for a second season, and we’ll get some fresh premieres from Margo’s Got Money Troubles and Outcome, a new Jonah Hill movie.
Let’s get into it.

Apple TV Plans and Prices
Apple TV+ Free Trial

Apple TV has always kept it simple with a single ad-free subscription plan. The service did hike prices back in August, so subscriptions now start at $12.99. It’s one of the few services that still offers a full free trial, and is also available as a bundle with Peacock.
