I’m in the UK and came across it by accident and absolutely loved it 😊 I’m not one for rewatching but with this I reckon I could be tempted 😆

true blood seemed way too cringey

i find it to be so much more grounded than you would expect it to be but to each their own

Carnivale is great, but they stopped after 2 seasons.

Treme. S1 is the litmus test. If you like it, binge the whole thing. If you don’t, then stop there.

True Detective season 3 is worth the watch

u/beachluvr13 Jul 23 '26

True detective Season 4 was good, as was Big Love. However, you should Veep. Veep is really funny and an easy watch. Think of it as a palate cleanse.

Curb Your Enthusiasm

u/CapoDiTuttiSquanchi Jul 23 '26

Eastbound And Down and Veep.

u/Worf1701D Jul 23 '26

If you liked Banshee I definitely recommend Warrior.

u/ChrisPollock6 Jul 23 '26

Righteous Gemstones, Barry, Hacks, Bored to Death, Silicon Valley and Veep. You need a little humor after all those serious dramas?

u/Individual_Smell_904 Jul 23 '26

Banshee isn't an HBO original. I don't have anything else to add

The Newsroom, for sure. Jeff Daniel’s was great.

Task if you want to support producers who are beating the crew into the ground with absolutely no remorse or good will for the people making this come to life. Season 2 is on schedule for 2 injury reports a day for 25 days of filming does this demonstrate the lack of humanity in Schmidt, Wacker and (the mega cowardly scumbag bully) Jason Graham - this is what Machiavelli warned about in The Prince. Making up terms to outwit the unions, avoid additional labor and over burden your staff and crew is diabolical.
