HBO’s been pulling a lot of shockers lately. Or at least, the showrunners of series’ on HBO have.
First, out of nowhere, HBO’s hit drama series, “Succession” announces that season four is its last—surprise!— and another shocker just a few weeks later was that Bill Hader’s comedic assassin thriller, “Barry” was calling it quits. Hader had long said that season four was written during the pandemic and then would be tweaked, but it was long ahead of the schedule, and he suggested it would at least hit a fifth season.
Freeform is kicking off its summer slate with the return of its hit series Cruel Summer and the final season of grown-ish.
Alison Herman When “Barry” began, it was the punchline to a simple setup: a hitman walks into an acting class, then kills in every sense of the term. Co-creator and star Bill Hader was best known for his sketch comedy work on “Saturday Night Live,” while his partner Alec Berg had done stints on “Silicon Valley” and “Curb Your Enthusiasm.” At least to start, “Barry” largely built on those backgrounds, mining humor from its characters’ self-delusion. Hader’s title character wants to express himself, but also hide his true nature; his classmates and teacher all firmly believe they’re undiscovered stars. Even violent criminals like chipper Chechen NoHo Hank (Anthony Carrigan) were largely comic creations.

Not to be a downer, but “Succession” isn’t the only great show ending this spring. Bill Hader and Alec Berg‘s genre-breaking dramedy “Barry” is also coming to a close with its fourth season.
While “Succession” crowds headlines with the unexpected twists of its final season, Barry Berkman is right around the corner, waiting to do the same to HBO subscribers. The cable king is losing two of its all-time biggest critical darlings this year as the final season of “Barry” premieres on April 16th with two episodes before its final run of six.
“Barry” Season 4 has arrived, offering a closer look at what to expect from the final eight episodes of the Emmy-winning half-hour series. Hader’s Barry is in jail following the Season 3 finale’s big sting operation, and we get glimpses of how those around Barry – Sally (Sarah Goldberg), Gene (Henry Winkler), Fuches (Stephen Root) and Hank (Anthony Carrigan) – are dealing with this new development.“The guy I was dating in LA killed my acting teacher’s girlfriend,” Sally is heard saying in the trailer, followed by, “I think I might be in a lot of trouble.”Barry is in jail, seen really laying it on himself as he deals with the consequences of his actions.
Jordan Moreau Barry Berkman is behind bars in the final trailer for HBO’s “Barry,” which is ending its acclaimed run after four seasons. Season 4 premieres on April 16. In the official trailer, we see Barry (Bill Hader) eating alone and losing his mind in prison. In the Season 3 finale, the police finally catch the professional assassin turned Hollywood actor…who turned back into an unhinged killer last season. “I’m really sorry. I didn’t think it would end up like this. I am a good person; that is who I am,” Barry tells himself, as he shouts alone in the prison yard, points at unseen objects and screams and slaps himself in a mirror.
EXCLUSIVE: The upcoming second season of HBO’s House of the Dragon will consist of eight episodes, two fewer than Season 1 of the Critics Choice Award-winning Game of Thrones prequel. It is part of a long-term plan for the show, which includes HBO mulling a green light for a third season, I have learned.
In Netflix’s “Firefly Lane” series, best friends Tully (Katherine Heigl) and Kate (Sarah Chalke) support each other through good times and bad with an unbreakable bond that carries them from their teens to their 40s. But in season two, for Kate and Tully—where no obstacle seemed too big when it comes to their lifelong friendship—there is one mistake that could tear them apart forever.

need to break character, they almost need to joke around with the crew.” He continued, “Some actors obviously, as we know, are complete opposite. They want to stay in the zone of the scene the whole day, and neither is right or wrong. But I would just say, as a testament to Florence, she just has a way, almost like jumping into a hypnotic state of going to such a dark, deep, authentic place, and then kind of popping out of it, and turning to the grips and asking, you know, ‘What was the score of the game?’ or something like that.
You—the Netflix hit series starring Penn Badgley as a —was just renewed for a fifth season and final season following a . The news is bittersweet for fans of the show, which is based on the best-selling book series by Caroline Kepnes. Thankfully, we won't have to say “Goodbye, you” to Joe Goldberg until next year.

EXCLUSIVE: Actor-filmmaker Zach Braff has signed with Range Media Partners ahead of the MGM theatrical release of his newest directorial effort A Good Person, starring Florence Pugh and Morgan Freeman.
Florence Pugh was all over New York City on Wednesday (March 22) promoting her brand new movie, A Good Person.
While Zach Braff might be best known for his comedic acting roles, his filmmaking ventures, specifically the three he’s written and directed, have primarily dealt with serious family dramas and that specific genre. Of course, everyone knows his 2007 breakout film, “Garden State,” or at least the memes, which tackles a quarter-life crisis and depression.
Susanna Reid paid tribute to her former co-star Piers Morgan for making her "more argumentative and difficult" as she celebrated 20 years on breakfast TV.
A wily old pro teams up with one of the most exciting young actresses of the day in the emotionally loaded drama A Good Person. Zach Braff’s third feature excels at taking the measure of how people cope with personal tragedy and does so in a vital and engaging way that’s far more invigorating than depressing. Braff essentially makes one feature film every 10 years (Garden State and Wish I Was Here came before), and while he otherwise busies himself with music, television and other pursuits, his talent is such that you’d like to see him wade more frequently and deeper into film work than he so far has.
