And no introduction is needed for the animated series, Samurai Jack. This series is not just for kids - adults love it equally, so make sure to give it a watch.

9 Skip: The Fresh Prince Of Bel Air

The Fresh Prince and Friends will now be streamed exclusively on HBO Max. In fact, Friends has left other platforms, including Netflix, to stream only on Max.

Fresh Prince is, no doubt, a highly rated show, but most fans have already watched it numerous times. Time may be better spent making way for some of the newer shows out here and skipping this one for now.

8 Watch Now: Space Ghost

One of the oldest but the most enduring shows ever, Space Ghost is an enjoyable series to binge-watch, though most fans have surely watched it enough times already. However, the series as it is running on HBO Max seems to have many episodes missing.

If you have not watched this show yet, you may want to leave it for now or until you can see the whole series, but old school fans won't mind a few episodes missing to get their fix.

7 Watch Now: Inside No 9

The anthology series Inside No 9 is a black comedy. The show is a bit difficult to find among the other star-studded shows and movies on HBO Max, but once you find it, there is no looking back.

While it might seem cheesy at first, it can be said to give Netflix’s Black Mirror a run for its money. Full of hilarious but dark moments and five seasons, there is lots to binge watch here.

6 Skip: Whose Line Is It Anyway

A unique show that took the TV world by storm, Whose Line Is It Anyway is a gem. Abundant in comedic improvisation, unrehearsed skits and hilarious performances, the show has aired for a whopping 16 seasons. But, if you plan to dig into this one, , don’t bother.

Unfortunately, as is the case with Space Ghost, there are missing episodes here, which may be annoying. While the full run of the show is definitely worth visiting, long-term fans may have to get their fix through some other avenue.

5 Watch Now: Being Erica

If you are home in your pajamas and just want to laze around with an easy show to watch, you'll want to check out Being Erica. While it is classified as a drama, which might sound boring to some, it is definitely an entertaining watch.

The show revolves around Erica, who is going to therapy to deal with the issues in her life. Soon she realizes that her shrink can send her back in time to help her change her bad experiences. What we wouldn’t give for such a shrink!

4 Watch Now: Search Party

The neo-noir dark comedy series Search Party has moved exclusively from TBS to HBO Max. The show follows a group of self-absorbed millennials who get themselves unintentionally wrapped up in a series of mysteries.

The good news is that the third season is launching on HBO Max on June 25 (and the fourth has already been approved), so finish the first two immediately and be one of the first people to enjoy the brand new seasons.

3 Skip: MadTV

While it is really rare to find this legendary gem of a TV show anywhere and fans can now binge-watch it whenever they want, you may wish to hold out and skip MadTV for now.

While the show is a fantastic example of a classic sketch comedy series, a good number of episodes are missing here, too. Absolutely watch it by all means, but, you must watch the others first. Who knows, maybe HBO will eventually add the missing episodes.

2 Watch Now: The Honorable Woman

HBO Max has secured the exclusive rights to the iconic miniseries, The Honorable Woman. It's a short, one-season-long TV show with Maggie Gyllenhaal as the lead.

The thriller is spun around a woman Nessa Stein who has inherited her father's arms and ammunition business. The rest of the story follows her path as she tries to reconcile the differences between Israel and Palestine.

1 Watch Now: The Bachelor & The Bachelorette

Yes! Finally, all the seasons and episodes of The Bachelor and The Bachelorette from all across the US (Bachelor Pad), UK, Australia, Canada and New Zealand.

These shows are the best accompaniment for the single people out there (and couples also enjoy the various series). Now fans have all three home seasons and the international seasons at their fingertips.
