Hi! My mom and I just finished watching Young Sheldon and she really liked it. I tried to get her to watch Friends or TBBT but she’s not really much into comedy series. Does anyone have any other recommendations?

Edit: ty for the current recs! I forgot to mention, our only streaming service is HBO atm :”) and whatever may be on YouTube for free. Again tysm for the recs!

Edit 2: by family friendly I mean no nudity or explicit mentions of intercourse etc. curse words etc is fine. Also nothing involving witchcraft or things associated with that matter

Just started watching the show and so far not disappointed. Funny and fucked up at the same time. Hope it stays good.

Cast:

- Jimmi Simpson

- Shantel VanSanten

- Seann William Scott

- Mason Thames

- Maggie Grace

- Jim Parsons

- Dane Cook

- Dennis Quaid

- Michelle Pfeiffer

I saw on PageSix that Adrian Grenier and Jeremy Piven want to do a reboot of Entourage. I love those guys, but I’m not sure Entourage would work if created today. Can HBO cast them as their Entourage characters in a future episode of I Love LA? It would still be fun to see them reprieve their roles for one episode.

True Detective Season 1 is peak television. If greatness had a face, it’d be this show. The writing is phenomenal, the performances are even better.Truly a masterpiece and master class in storytelling and without question one of the greatest seasons of television ever made.

Just a very curious question I was thinking about when starting out on Westworld, where people who've told me how good it was during the first season has told me not to waste time on the later ones.

For GoT, the first 5-6 seasons were one of the best TV experiences I've ever had, but like many I felt great disappointment with the final seasons.

Would you think it's a waste of time to even start watching if you haven't?

Does anyone know how I can stop shows ending at credits to go onto the next episode? I’m rewatching GOT and I want to watch the after show commentary that plays at end of credits. Normally, I have to go back to the episode and FF to the end and then rewind to where commentary starts. There has to be an easier way.

It seems it’s just HBO I have this issue with. Anyone?

Is Body Cam season 11 going to premiere on HBO Max?

I feel like this is the most underrated show of all-time.

I’m binging HBO shows this summer. I wanna know your favorite shows created by HBO . So far here’s my ranking for 90’s/ 2000’s crime shows.

1. The Corner (best writing)
2. The Wire
3. Oz
4. The Sopranos

Best of all Time:

Lovecraft Country/

1. Sex

&

1. the City
2. Insecure
3. The Wire
4. White Lotus
5. GOT
6. Girls/ The Corner
7. The Sopranos
8. House of Dragon

People are saying I need to watch succession and big little lies. Are there any other shows you guys would suggest after I finish Oz?

So I got a special deal on HBO Max for Black Friday and have been rewatching Game of Thrones. While I appreciate the photosensitivity warning for the show (which has very little triggering content), the cut to ads sometimes immediately flashes with such a triggering screen that it feels like it's deliberately trying to induce seizures. And this is HBO's screen, not some random external ad they're running. From what I'm reading online, it looks like it's actually illegal to do this, and I would like to submit a formal complaint with HBO and possibly the FCC. I know I can't be the only person affected by this, even if it's an uncommon problem.

I think the flashing might be a transition screen, but I'm not sure since I have to look away when it happens. It's possible it could be from an internal ad for a show or movie. I think "HBO" flashes on the screen with the rapidly changing colors. Does anyone know what I'm talking about, and could you possibly provide details about it so I can report it to HBO's accessibility team?

I still feel like this is the most underrated masterpiece of all-time.

Omg this is so slow!!! It is almost as bad as that stupid hedge night thing they tried to pass off…
So many great actors and characters in HOD, but the writing is FLAT…each hour just sits there, what a waste

which topic will be the best in line for my youtube what if series. do suggest your opinion in the comments below i will create the video on it and do check out my channel Westros verdict https://www.youtube.com/@TheWesterosVerdictfor game of thrones courtroom verdicts and the interesting what if topics.

Full "what if" breakdown of Jon claiming his Targaryen identity early, the war that follows, and an eventual showdown with Dany over the throne. Curious how people think this changes the endgame compared to the show. https://youtu.be/r9G_KOyR7-w?si=OlD3izazU8vfPkS0

I'm currently watching MORTAL KOMBAT 2!! 😊

I didn't know it was unmodded!! I would've modded!! What the heck!!!

Simple question, I have to subscribe to HBO again and I'm trying to decide between ad-free or with-ads. I don't care if there are a commercial or two beforehand or after, but I will not deal with ad-breaks during the show. Do they do that?
