HBO Max

HBO Max sustained its legacy of boundary-pushing content in 2024 with inclusive series that embraced vulnerability, satire, and cultural commentary. SOMEBODY SOMEWHERE remained a quiet triumph in queer and small-town representation, centering a Midwestern woman’s search for connection and purpose. THE REGIME, while satirical and fictional, included themes of political oppression and resistance that resonated globally, with representation of people aged 65 and older woven into the main storyline. HBO Max continues to explore human experiences in all their specificity and complexity.
