Apple is bringing one of its biggest series, “Severance” season 1, to the free Roku Channel streaming platform, in a move to help drive new subscribers to its highly acclaimed Apple TV+ streaming service.
Roku on Thursday said that the entire first season of Severance would be available on its Roku Channel for what it is calling an “exclusive fan experience,” which will run through Jan. 19.
The effort is connected to the debut of season two of Severance on Apple TV+ on Jan. 17. In addition to the first season, Roku Channel will get a preview of season two of the Adam Scott-starring thriller, as well as behind-the-scenes content. Users will also be eligible for three free months of Apple TV+.
The fan experience will be accessible directly from the Roku home screen, underscoring the high-profile placement of the deal. Roku has some 90 million users, making it one of the biggest free streaming video platforms on the market.
MacDailyNews Take: This will be big for both “Severance” and Apple TV+ as it will give millions of viewers who basically have no idea what they’re missing a chance to sample one of Apple TV+’s very best series. Apple should do similar promotions with “Silo,” “Slow Horses,” and with other streamers!
