Search movies and TV shows
Siri on Apple TV helps you quickly find movies and TV shows to watch. Siri can find content based on a wide range of criteria—including titles, genres, actors, directors, ratings, age appropriateness and more. You can even ask to find “good” or “popular” results.
Ask Siri. Say something like:
“What should I watch?”
“Find The Boxtrolls”
“Play Episode 3 of Season 1 of Homeland”
“Show me popular comedies”
“Find Benedict Cumberbatch movies”
“Watch great dramas”
“Find me some TV Shows that are good for kids”
“Show PG-13 movies”
You can also combine genres.
Ask Siri. Say something like:
“Find me some funny horror movies”
“Show me independent foreign films”
“Search for crime documentaries”
When you search for a movie or TV show, Siri searches across multiple apps to find you exactly what you’re looking for. If you request a unique title, Apple TV takes you directly to the detail page for that video. If there’s more than one result, Siri displays a row of search results for you to choose from or further refine your search.
To learn more about working with search results, see View search results and Select a search result.
Once you make an initial search, you can ask additional questions to zero in on exactly what you want to watch. See Refine search results.
