HBO Max has been operating in our country since last October, when the new app completely absorbed HBO, as well as all the content that had been released in previous years. The fact is that if you have just jumped on the bandwagon of this new platform, we are going to give you the names of five series on the streaming service that have captivated (or are still doing so) millions of viewers around the world and that share the same defining detail: the suspense, that emotion for the mystery, the uncertainty and the unknown produced by not knowing what is going to happen next on the screen.
As we say, it is in practically all cases of fictions that are inherited from the old HBO Spain so write them down if you haven’t had contact with them until now because you’re going to love them. And above all, they will keep you glued to the couch until the last second of the last minute of their stories is over. Here we go…
Chernobyl
Released almost three years ago, It is a faithful reflection of what happened in 1986 at the nuclear power plant located in Chernobyl, in western Ukraine, then a territory of the Soviet Union. An incident that expelled tons of radioactive material into the atmosphere and caused the mass exodus of nearby populations. In fiction, we will learn about all the work that was carried out to contain the disaster and the decisions that the political and scientific leaders of the USSR had to face at the time. extraordinary.
The Undoing
The story of a marriage that seems ideal, formed by Nicole Kidman and Hugh Grant, seems to shatter when an event occurs that bursts violently to mark their lives. The series will show us that process step by step, although we will soon realize that some things we take for granted are not as we see them on the small screen. Give it a try although, it is also true, at the time some viewers complained that they were not too happy with the chosen ending. See her anyway.
cleaning girl
This premiere is recent, already within HBO Max and we suggest you give it a try because it maintains a lot of suspense elements for a truly original approach to a story. In it, a Cambodian doctor arrives in the United States to get medical treatment to save her sick son, although in the end she will end up offering her services as a cleaning workforce for an underground world of crime. and shady deals. A kind of lady wolf that you’ll have to blow the whistle on some really brutal crime scenes. How will it end?
True Detective
This series is one of the names that has become a reference in the seriéphile panorama that we have been enjoying over the last decade, although in all honesty it must be said that it is the first season that really marks the level of his prestige. With Woody Harrelson and Matthew McConaughey, the plot takes us to Louisiana in 1995, when two detectives have to investigate the brutal murder of a young woman subjected to a strange ritual. 17 years later, the murderer seems to be back to his old ways.
Pretty Little Liars
Another of the veterans of the platform, these Little Liars they are a good way to keep us glued to the sofa without knowing how things are going to end. Suspense with a lot of comic touch, but suspense nonetheless around a mystery that returns to hit what seems to be the strongest friendship of a group of girls who have known each other since they were little. In addition to the original series, you have on HBO Max an extra content that was created two years later, called Pretty Little Liars Perfectionists.
