Chief of War, starring Jason Momoa, is among the top 10 Apple TV shows worldwide, placed at Number 2. According to recent reports, it is now not the only show on the list starring Momoa. Adding to the list is a sci-fi drama, See, which is experiencing a second wave of its viewership after the show wrapped up in 2022. Both shows are performing strongly in the international markets, with the sci-fi drama resting at number 10 as of September 15, 2025.
This resurgence isn't unusual for Apple TV+ shows, as this is simply a result of renewed interest among the viewers or when they rediscover a show released long ago through word of mouth or via algorithm. Jason Momoa plays the character of Baba Voss in See. Along with this, the show's unique premise of an apocalyptic world where humanity has lost its sense of sight after a devastating virus plays a role in the fact that, after 3 years, it is again gaining momentum.
See is another Jason Momoa show in the top 10 Apple TV worldwide list, along with The Chief of War.
The Apple TV show See has climbed up the charts after 3 years of its release, and this suggests that it has become something of a cult favorite after some other reputed sci-fi shows like Severance, Foundation, and For All Mankind. It seems like sci-fi fans are now exploring more shows in a similar genre and developing a unique taste for the apocalyptic world of See, where humans have lost their ability to see.
Moreover, Jason Momoa's other show, Chief of War, is gaining popularity, which could also be the reason why fans are craving more Momoa shows. Chief of War is currently sitting at 2nd place in the list as of September 16, 2025, naturally making the new viewers curious about the actor's past work, giving Apple TV another streaming hit for the show that ended in 2022.
What else has led to the sudden popularity of the show, See?
Critics gave a score of 63% to See on Rotten Tomatoes, while the audience liked the show much more, with an 84% score. Therefore, we can say the success of the show is viewer-driven, while its unique premise has kept it alive and still interesting.
Next, the show is written by Steven Knight, whose name carries the weight of the success of his several other shows, like Peaky Blinders and now House of Guinness. Even though these were period dramas and See is a sci-fi, the writer is praised for his craft and ability to write nuanced characters.
Therefore, we can say that all these factors together have given a second wind to a show released long ago, especially the appearance of Jason Momoa and fans developing a taste for more of his characters and stories.
