So far this season it seems like it takes several days after new episodes air for them to appear on the Apple TV season pass. With season 50 I was able to watch new episodes on Sunday after they aired but not so this season it can be Tue/Wed before the episodes appear.
Has anything changed with how the episodes are getting released to and then posted by Apple?
Apple TV 4K, tvOS 26
Thanks for confirming that is how it usually is. I'm in Canada so I was curious if I missed some sort of announcement re: media rights delaying the release to Apple, etc. but sounds like there hasn't (or others haven't seen it).
Definitely lowers the value of purchasing the season pass this season.

We have no way of knowing if anything changed.
All I can say is usually with a season pass, it’s 12 to 24 hours after the episode airs that it becomes available.
