Cruelly destroying our last excuse for not having watched all of at last-thanks a lot, guys, now we're going to have to actually be informed whenever cocktail parties start emerging from the rubble-HBO has just announced that it's releasing hundreds of hours of some of its most beloved shows on streaming for free. The decision to move these shows-which also include , , , , , , , , plus a number of the network's documentaries and docuseries-out from behind any paywalls is being positioned as an effort to give people more crap to do while we're all stuck indoors (and also, presumably, as a tacit advertisement for how nice it'll be to have all this stuff at your fingertips when HBO Max finally arrives).
But seriously: That's a decent chunk of some of the most beloved and critically acclaimed television of the last two decades all being made suddenly available-as well as your perfect icebreaker if you ever end up trapped in an elevator with Elizabeth Warren. All of the content is being moved to the company's interim-streaming options, HBO Go and HBO Now, tomorrow, Friday, April 3, where it'll be free (either in the app, or just streaming on the site) without need for a subscription. You can see the full list of series, documentaries, and Warner Bros. movies being offered below. (And no, there's no goddamn Snyder Cut.)
