Apple TV+ also picked up episode two of the “Oprah’s Book Club” show in which she hand-picks a book to talk about and interviews its author about the issues that it brings too light.

The new episode sports an interview with Pulitzer Prize-winning author Elizabeth Sprout.

Books featured in the show are available to purchase through the Apple Books app. In addition to the latest selection, you can browse previous selections picked by Oprah and featured in Apple Books with what Apple calls “a beautiful and immersive experience.”

Coming soon: “Mythic Quest”

With the season finale of “Servant” and all season 1 of “Little America” now available, Apple TV+ subscribers have five hours and fifteen minutes of new content to watch this week.

Your thoughts

Apple TV+ debuts new content every Friday, but the Cupertino firm continues to experiment with various release strategies, with some shows released on an episode-by-episode basis and others premiering with the first three episodes dropping at once.

“Little America” is the second adult Apple TV+ show to be released for binge-watching after “Dickinson”. Children shows like “Snoopy in Space” are also released for binge-watching.
