These days, launching an original TV drama can be quite challenging. However, HBO stands out as one of the few networks capable of making them successful, with series like “Succession,” “Euphoria,” and “Hacks” all receiving positive responses.

It seems that the third season could be crucial for the show; if viewership doesn’t increase, it might not continue.
