2023 is a big year for HBO Max, a streaming platform that must demonstrate that the crisis experienced in 2022 is a thing of the past. However, not all series maintain the same level, so I prepared a list with The best HBO Max series in 2023 (some not so much) and why you need to see them (and why not). Have you hung them all yet?
Velma – January 12, 2023
For many, one of the worst series of recent years. Even the excuse of being an animated series for adults cannot be a reason for sexualize Velma Dinkley’s character in this wayof scooby-doo. However, it must have worked very well, because HBO Max has already confirmed its second season.
The Last of Us – January 16, 2023
Perhaps the best series of 2023, or at least one of the most impactful ones. And this was released in the third week of the year. Peter Pascal there Bella Ramsey They interpret the best versions of Joel there Elijah that fans of The last of us we would never have imagined. Yes, there are changes compared to the video game. And yes, some are controversial and have divided audiences. But the end result was more than satisfying. The best adaptation of a video game?
The Flash Season 9 – February 9, 2023
The ninth and final season of the flash began airing in February 2023 in Spain via HBO Max and it worked like a nice farewell. Not just this character, but the back arrow that at some point we all fell in love with it, and soon after it disappointed us series after series.
The Godfather of Harlem Season 3 – February 9, 2023
the godfather of Harlem This is the case with a very little-known series from the catalog of HBO Maxalthough it really belongs to the platform Epix (only available in the United States). In addition, the series can also be seen on Disney Plus, but it is in HBO Max where he made more noise. This drama based on real events is excellent in almost everythingand sooner or later you will get the recognition you deserve.
The Haunting of the Windsor – February 12, 2023
A Spanish docu-series about the fire in the Windsor building in Madrid which analyzes the possible causes. Did you know that the Windsor affair hides much more than it seems? Was it really a badly paid cigarette butt that started this raging fire?
Poor Devil – February 17, 2023
Spanish animation made a spectacular qualitative leap with Poor devila series created by Joaquin Reyes there Ernest Seville which puts us at the center of the genre internationally. She’s funny, she’s critical and she has a heart, everything you could ask for from a project of this category.
Motel Valkyrias – March 1, 2023
co-production Galician–Portuguese it happened without making much noise, but thriller lovers will love it. You can read my review on Areajugones, but as I always say, it’s better to try for yourself.
Perry Mason Season 2 – Starting March 7, 2023
If season 1 of Perry Mason it was already good, the second goes up a notch and gives us a detective adventure with identity and personality, once again masterfully interpreted by Matthew Rhys. Too bad that in the 2020/21 awards season it went completely unnoticed. Will he hit the table next time? Read my review in Areajugones WITHOUT spoilers.
Riverdale Season 5 – Starting March 10, 2023
I’d be lying to you if I said I’m a fan of Riverdale, because it’s never a series that has particularly caught my attention. Its first season bored me a lot, but in 2023 the fifth season came out in HBO Max and his legion of followers is noted. If you like comic-based teen series, you can Riverdale be for you and you have it complete in HBO Max.
Superman and Lois Season 3 – Starting March 16, 2023
At a time when the superhero genre seems to be in the doldrums (I swear it’s not a joke), Superman and Lois shows that you can make a series with identity, despite being part of a dead saga like the Arrowverse. Who knows what will happen now, but its third season is a real treat for fans.
Snowfall Season 6 – Starting March 18, 2023
Although it seems hard to get addicted to a series that has just released its third season, I recommend that you give it a chance and start from scratch. Snowfall is one of the best series of recent times, a social portrait of a time when the crack it consumed everything. Damson Idris, Carter Hudson, Isaiah John there Sergio Peris-Mencheta They are just some of its protagonists.
