Best late 1990s early 2000s HBO show?

The Wire is amazing but overrated, and I say that with all due respect. It's an amazing show, but it gets way more praise than it deserves, IMO. Oz is the opposite. Way less praise than it deserves. I've never seen Six Feet Under but need to.

Honorable mention. Deadwood is fucking amazing although not early 2000's.

Were the 2000s HBOs heyday for original series?

Yeah besides Succession; The Leftovers, Bored to Death, The Newsroom, Boardwalk Empire, Watchmen, Barry...

Their batting average is down a little but they’re still putting out some of the best shows on TV.

April 16, 2025 - Lots of great shows. It’s amazing how great HBO was in the 2000s and early 2010s when they had little competition for quality television. “In Treatment” was great but seems to be forgotten.

November 15, 2022 - Spike Lee’s epic and profound docuseries about the devastation of New Orleans by Hurricane Katrina was described by a HBO executive as “one of the most important films we’ve ever made”. Chronicling three gay men forming a makeshift family in San Francisco, this gorgeously naturalistic series lacked the shock factor of Queer As Folk but was more meditative and moving. One of its stars, Murray Bartlett, would go on to steal the show in stablemate The White Lotus.

July 14, 2009 - The Venture Brothers. Easily one of the best (if not the best) animated shows of the decade. Multi-layered plots that are worked into jokes and scenes several episodes later, spot-on satire of the whole superhero/adventure genre, and just whiz-bang funny all the way around.

March 13, 2025 - Using the show’s distinct viewpoint to punch up rather than tred on easy targets, it’s political-themed comedy that offers something constructive to our national discourse, all while managing to slip in dogs who look like Supreme Court justices for good measure. —SG ...

April 9, 2024 - Yet Luck was also as cursed in its own way as Milch’s John From Cincinnati, another expensive show that missed out on a second season. Three horses died during production, and the safety of future animals could not be guaranteed. It’s hard to know what might have been, but Luck’s best stretches had the quality of a salty, Altman-esque tapestry, populated by lowlifes and losers, yet full of feeling all the same. The venerable indie filmmakers Jay and Mark Duplass were initially pegged as part of the early 2000s “mumblecore” collective of writers, directors, and actors, who told stories about ordinary life in purposefully stripped-down, non-melodramatic ways.

January 24, 2024 - This aim is often pursued to a fault, but it’s completely refreshing in a TV atmosphere dominated by (great) shows in which there is purposefully almost no one to root for – Succession and certain seasons of Fargo come immediately to mind. Bill and his circle, especially his first wife, Barb (Jeanne Tripplehorn), are good people, or are trying to be.
