Apple TV’s top shows are always known—they are prominently displayed in the TV app’s ‘Top 10.’ This week, the leading trio highlights the three genres where Apple excels the most.

## Shrinking, Imperfect Women, and Monarch: Legacy of Monsters showcase Apple TV’s finest genres

Currently, Apple TV’s three most popular series encompass the streamer’s three top genres:

– Comedy
– Thriller
– Sci-fi

The leading three shows in the US rankings are **Shrinking**, **Imperfect Women**, and **Monarch: Legacy of Monsters**. Each one represents one of Apple’s most triumphant genres.

**[Shrinking](https://tv.apple.com/show/shrinking/umc.cmc.apzybj6eqf6pzccd97kev7bs?itscg=30200&itsct=tv_box_link&mttnsubad=umc.cmc.apzybj6eqf6pzccd97kev7bs&at=1000l3cvR)** comes from Ted Lasso co-creator Bill Lawrence, and in its third season, the cherished comedy remains as strong as ever.

**[Imperfect Women](https://tv.apple.com/show/imperfect-women/umc.cmc.1w2rmpbqzt24879bt7109zgi6?itscg=30200&itsct=tv_box_link&mttnsubad=umc.cmc.1w2rmpbqzt24879bt7109zgi6&at=1000l3cvR)** is a new psychological thriller featuring Elisabeth Moss, Kerry Washington, and Kate Mara. It expands the ever-growing selection of thriller series in Apple’s library.

**[Monarch: Legacy of Monsters](https://tv.apple.com/show/monarch-legacy-of-monsters/umc.cmc.62l8x0ixrhyq3yaqa5y8yo7ew?itscg=30200&itsct=tv_box_link&mttnsubad=umc.cmc.62l8x0ixrhyq3yaqa5y8yo7ew&at=1000l3cvR)** is a sci-fi epic starring Godzilla, Kong, and other Titans.

Apple TV programming covers a broad spectrum of genres, yet there’s no question that the streamer’s largest successes have originated from shows like these three.

**[Ted Lasso](https://tv.apple.com/show/ted-lasso/umc.cmc.vtoh0mn0xn7t3c643xqonfzy?itscg=30200&itsct=tv_box_link&mttnsubad=umc.cmc.vtoh0mn0xn7t3c643xqonfzy&at=1000l3cvR)** was the streamer’s first major hit. And Lawrence’s other comedies—Shrinking and **[Bad Monkey](https://tv.apple.com/show/bad-monkey/umc.cmc.2qoep59s6qukjonprttysfs8x?itscg=30200&itsct=tv_box_link&mttnsubad=umc.cmc.2qoep59s6qukjonprttysfs8x&at=1000l3cvR)**—have also been among Apple’s top series.

Thrillers have been a specific focus for Apple in the last few years, with more thriller series premiering than any other genre. This year alone, Apple TV has thus far featured 10 different series—and 5 of those 10 are defined as thrillers.

Sci-fi has consistently been a strength for the streamer.
