Apple TV+ just hit a major milestone, racking up a record-breaking 81 Emmy nominations this year—its highest ever. The standout? Severance, the mind-bending workplace thriller, which led the charge with multiple nods. This cements Apple’s streaming service as a serious player in the prestige TV game, going toe-to-toe with heavyweights like Netflix and HBO.

Editor’s Note: A few years ago, Apple TV+ was the new kid on the block—now it’s a heavyweight contender. This explosion of Emmy love (especially for Severance) signals that Apple’s big bets on original content are paying off. For viewers, it means more high-quality shows to look forward to; for Hollywood, it’s proof that the streaming wars are far from over.

HBO Max recently sent out an email that may have left some subscribers scratching their heads—turns out, the streaming bundle quietly removed a family-friendly channel. If you were wondering where it went, this explains the change.
