This year, Apple TV+ has truly found its rhythm, with year-end accolades starting to pour in. A notable organization has recently recognized a popular Apple TV+ comedy as one of the top 10 television series of the year.
AFI’s Top 10 TV Shows of 2024
The American Film Institute releases an annual list featuring the 10 best films and 10 best TV shows of the year.
This year, Shrinking earned a spot among the TV show honorees.
Here’s the complete list:
- Abbott Elementary
- The Bear
- Hacks
- A Man on the Inside
- Mr. & Mrs. Smith
- Nobody Wants This
- The Penguin
- Shōgun
- Shrinking
- True Detective: Night Country
This is not the first occasion the AFI has acknowledged an Apple TV+ series in its year-end honors. In 2023, The Morning Show was included, while the lists for 2022 featured Pachinko and Severance, and in 2021, Ted Lasso was celebrated.
Reasons to Watch Shrinking
Shrinking is the brainchild of Bill Lawrence, one of the co-creators behind the massive Apple TV+ hit, Ted Lasso. Lawrence also joined forces on this summer’s delightful series, Bad Monkey.
Currently in its second season, Shrinking has maintained the same high standards as its inaugural season, thanks to a stellar ensemble cast.
The show consistently ranks among the most-watched on Apple TV+. If you haven’t tuned in yet, here’s a quick summary from Apple about what you can expect:
Shrinking follows a bereaved therapist who begins to disregard the rules and candidly share his thoughts with clients. As he bypasses his training and ethics, he undertakes significant and often tumultuous changes in people’s lives—including his own.
Harrison Ford’s comedic performance is one of the highlights of the series, but the entire cast shines—mirroring the strong ensemble that characterized Ted Lasso.
If you haven’t started watching Shrinking yet, but enjoyed Ted Lasso or Bad Monkey, you’re truly missing out. It’s available for streaming right now on Apple TV+.
