The Best HBO Series Right Now

The sixth and final season of Mike Judge and Alex Berg's hilarious, Emmy-nominated HBO comedy finds Pied Piper more successful than ever. After years of false starts, the company has become a legitimate presence in Silicon Valley, rising above the competition with its pledge not to mine user data. But the Pied Piper guys soon come to learn that staying true to their values comes at a price in this cutthroat business. While they deal with the stress of managing a growing organization, 'Silicon Valley' heads toward a conclusion that's funny, smart and fitting for our forever-awkward tech heroes.

The Leftovers certainly does not revolve around the contents of your fridge. Although the series is centred around mystery and intrigue! If you enjoyed Lost, particularly the uncertainties within the series, then The Leftovers is most definitely for you. It is all about the chaos and anarchy associated with the disappearance of 2% of the world’s population - that’s about 140 million people. Discover what happens when all of these people just disappear... Without explanation. The show was co-created by Damon Lindelof of Lost (surprise surprise!) and is based on the novel by Tom Perrotta.

Insecure is a comedy that tackles racial and social issues. It is based on the web series called Awkward Black Girl. It is an award-winning series based on the adventures (or mis-adventures as it says on the website!) of a black girl named "J". Insecure stars Issa Dee who is trying to live life in LA and more often than not having a tough time of it with her friend Molly. A light-hearted series to enjoy but to take notice of nonetheless. Perhaps one to watch with friends...

A series inspired by Mike Judge’s own experience as a Silicon Valley engineer in the late 1980s. The engineers in the Silicon Valley live in a "gold" area, and many engineers are called "rest and vest" workers since they don’t do much most of the time but are sometimes meant to be working tirelessly. Silicon Valley is a great watch for those interested in the life of software engineers.

The Sopranos is all about the fictional mob boss Tony Soprano and details his conversations with his psychiatrist. If the workings of the mind are of interest to you, then you’ll 100% enjoy The Sopranos. The viewer sees Tony with his therapist as well as at home and work. Expect violence, adult themes and aggressive scenes. Whatever happens, you won’t be bored!

Could we start with anything else? Even if you’ve never seen Game of Thrones, you must have heard of it. Game of Thrones is based on the book “A Song of Ice and Fire” by George R.R. Martin. It is mostly set in the fictional location of Westeros and, on the surface, is about seven families hoping to gain control over the seven kingdoms within it. Family drama and death are key themes throughout the show and despite the intense emotions associated with the programme, it is one of the most popular HBO series. Ever.
