Groundbreaking TV like Band of Brothers, Chernobyl, and Angels in America are among the best HBO limited series ever, according to IMDb users.
Read update HBO is an American television network that's built a reputation for producing some stellar TV shows over the past few decades. The late 1990s was when its popularity as a premium network really took off, thanks to early shows like Oz and The Sopranos, with a spectacular run into the early 2000s and beyond giving TV viewers shows like The Wire, Six Feet Under, and Deadwood.
It's executed in a methodical and straightforward manner, and expertly explores relevant social and racial issues linked to this real-life time in history. Alongside the social and political commentary is fantastic acting, too, most notably from Isaac, Catherine Keener, and Winona Ryder.Sharp Objects is a dark crime/mystery series about a crime reporter returning to the town she grew up in to solve a double murder where both the victims are young girls.
This makes it a far cry from the high-budget spectacle offered in other HBO shows from around this time, like Game of Thrones or Westworld, but the drama on offer here is compelling enough. It also helps that it features some impeccably good acting, with Frances McDormand leading the cast, and other actors - like Richard Jenkins, Jesse Plemons, and Bill Murray - shining, too.
Generation Kill is specifically set in 2003, right at the start of the American assault on Baghdad. It captures the war and the people involved with it in a gritty and authentic way, following a reporter who joins a squad of Marines to chronicle what goes on during the conflict's early days. It's naturally intense and confronting, but expertly made and acclaimed, as demonstrated by its positive reception on IMDb.
