HBO Has the Best Miniseries and This List Proves It

Netflix who? HBO is the king of the drama series (Sopranos, anyone?) and the fantasy and science fiction genre (Games of Thrones, The Last of Us, and Westworld). But I’d argue it’s also the king of miniseries. And before you vehemently disagree and click out of this article, hear me out. I only bought HBO to watch House of the Dragon and Sex and the City reruns, but during my quarantine days, I looked into the network’s catalog, and boy did I find some good freakin’ shows. Like, have you watched Chernobyl? Between the CGI and the spectacular screenwriting, HBO turned a story about a nuclear explosion into an emotional, heart-gripping five-episode series. Same with I May Destroy You by comedy queen Michaela Coel. Most series and films focusing on sexual assault and abuse get it wrong with the few, very rare exceptions like Women Talking. But Michaela’s Coel series did what many survivors thought impossible and unrealistic: delivered a nuanced, personal experience of sexual assault and the survivor-hood that follows. And get this: these are only two of the who-knows-how-many miniseries HBO has released in the past couple of years. I’m telling ya, HBO is an expert at making miniseries. Just check out this list of the nine best HBO miniseries if you still don’t believe the network is the reigning champ. SUBSCRIBE TO HBO MAX
