HBO hive assemble. The popular US cable channel is giving us all access to many of its most iconic series to watch for free.
With countries all around the world in lockdown due to coronavirus, cinemas have temporarily closed and theatres have shut for the time being. With that in mind, the entertainment industry has come up with multiple ways to keep us busy as we self-isolate. New movies are being added to streaming services early and you can watch live musicals from your own home.

If that weren't enough, HBO have now made over 500 hours worth of their most popular content available to stream for free.
Today (Apr 3), HBO are offering free access to full hit series, including The Sopranos, Succession, True Blood, Veep and The Wire. You can also currently watch Warner Bros. films, such as Crazy, Stupid, Love and Pokémon Detective Pikachu without paying via the cable channel. Not to mention, a whole host of critically-acclaimed documentaries and docuseries too.
To access the free content, all you have to do is download the HBO Now or HBO Go apps in the US and you can stream all the content without a subscription.
