AT&T CEO Randall Stephenson said in the subscription video landscape, HBO is “the Tiffany” to Netflix’s Walmart. Expanding on earlier comments by WarnerMedia chief John Stanke…

The producers are being tight-lipped on the character but I hear Paul will be a series regular. Created for television by Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy, based on Michael Crichton’s 1973 movie, the sci-fi thriller is a dark odyssey about the dawn of artificial consciousness and the evolution of sin. Paul is a series regular on Apple’s upcoming drama Are You Sleeping? It is an anthology series, so most of the cast, including Paul, have one-year deals for the Season 1 story arc.

Co-creator David Simon had previously stated he wanted three installments of the show in three different time periods of New York.

Silicon Valley Season 3 premieres Sunday, April 24.

HBO is hunting down Game of Thrones pirates. Its weapon: warning letters. The TV network wants to stop people from illegally downloading its hugely popular and widely pirated TV series. HBO "aggressively protects its programming," the network told CBC News in an email. But many Canadians who pirate Game of Thrones claim they haven't much choice; the fantasy drama, known for its violence, nudity and plot-twists, isn't available in Canada without a costly cable subscription.

It's a week for origin stories—Hodor, White Walkers, the Faceless Men—though their motivations end up feeling more opaque than ever. Game of Thrones has always been a story about stories, and specifically about taking fantasy tales apart and putting them back together in cruel and fascinating ways. It’s interesting now, particularly in the political storylines, to see the characters themselves considering their own stories more carefully: the ones that other people tell about them, the ones they tell about themselves, and how they can change the former to the latter.

Outtakes from Season 3, Ep. 1.

Making good on years of tentative "we'll sees" from both the creator and network, Curb Your Enthusiasm will indeed return to HBO. The network on Tuesday announced a ninth season for the beloved Larry David comedy, though a formal return date was not included. Curb Your Enthusiasm last aired an original episode in September 2011, and the nearly five-year gap since has seen neither HBO nor David ready to publicly dismiss the idea of revisiting the show.

Game of Thrones ratings have reached new heights in season 6. U.S. viewership of the HBO fantasy hit have now surpassed 23 million viewers episode when all forms of viewing are counted (that’s originals, repeats, DVR and streaming). Even with the season not yet finished and data still incomplete, that tally is up 15 percent from season 5, which was the show’s previous record holder. Among adults 18-49 – a demo not tracked by HBO, yet interesting to look at nonetheless...

Game of Thrones’ Season 6 finale had revenge, hollowed monarchies, a lot of death, parentage revelations and new alliances packing its nearly 70-minute run on June 26. The David Benioff and D.B. Weiss written “The Winds of Winter” episode also had 8.89 million viewers – an all-time high for the HBO series. With this season having sped ahead of the George R.R. Martin books on which the blockbuster series has been based, Sunday’s finale was up 16% over the war heavy “Battle of the Bastards” episode of June 19. The Miguel Sapochnik directed Season 6 ender was also up 10% from the David Nutter...

Fans of “Eastbound & Down” will be happy to know that “Vice Principals,” the new HBO comedy starring Danny McBride, promises the same type of debauchery. “Vice Principals,” however, is settling into the television trend of “short and sweet,” in other words — few seasons. “The whole series is only 18 episodes and that’s it. We just wanted to make a really long movie. It’s one school year and a complete story,” McBride said at the show’s premiere.

Summer is coming. HBO is officially confirming some major changes for Game of Thrones. Season 7 of the fantasy sensation will not return until summer 2017 – pushing back from the show’s usual strategy of premiering each edition of the series in the spring (typically April).

Plus, HBO added that the next season will be shot in Northern Ireland, Spain, and Iceland.

Say goodbye to Project Greenlight. For now. HBO says it will not renew the docuseries, which was executive produced by Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, Deadline reports. “When we picked up a new season in 2014, we imagined a one-season revival and decided in early 2016 another season did not make sense for us,” HBO said in a statement. “We are proud of the show and were pleased with its run throughout the years.” Damon told the Associated Press that he was surprised at the network’s decision, but understands it.

The Hollywood Reporter turned out with an article expressing that they’ve heard the financial plan for the whole first period of HBO’s Westworld, 10 scenes, was $100 million. The pilot alone $25 million itself. That is a considerable measure of cash, particularly for TV so it’s protected to say that there is a great deal riding on this arrangement.

The Wall Street Journal reports that AT&T has reached a deal to acquire Time Warner for more than $80 billion. News of the merger first surfaced on Friday, when Reuters and Bloomberg reported that the deal could top $85 billion. If successful, AT&T will gain control of huge entertainment and news brands including HBO, Warner Bros. Entertainment, and CNN, and resembles efforts by competing ISPs in recent years to create enormous media conglomerates. Since one of Time Warner's holdings is DC Comics, the wireless company will also be acquiring Batman.

Two of the most popular Curb Your Enthusiasm recurring guest stars, husband-and-wife duo Ted Danson and Mary Steenburgen, have closed deals to return for the upcoming ninth season of Larry David’s HBO comedy.

Attention, True Detective fans: Matthew McConaughey’s days of hunting serial killers may not be over quite yet. The actor stopped by The Rich Eisen Show on Friday to talk Texas football, his new animated flick, Sing, and his long-lasting affection for his True Detective character, Rustin “Rust” Cohle. “You essentially said you wanted to play Rust Cohle when you saw the script,” Eisen said. “You were originally going to go for the part of Marty (Woody Harrelson’s character) and then you were like, ‘This guy Rustin Cohle really speaks to me’.”

HBO has uploaded an April 23 premiere date for Season 4 of Silicon Valley, its techie romp that has been nominated for the Comedy Series Emmy in all of its previous outings. Without revealing too much for those who aren’t current on the show, Silicon Valley‘s fourth season will start with Pied Piper is under old management, sort of. When we last left our anti-heroes, Jared’s (Zach Woods) clickfarm scam had been discovered and covered up, a scandal threatened to gut Hooli king Gavin Belson (Matt Ross), a side project could become an accidental focus, and Erlich (T.J. Miller) and Big Head (Josh Brener) have a new asset.

There's no word on who will star as Trump and Clinton, though Tom Hanks is on board to produce. HBO is creating a miniseries based on the 2016 Trump-Clinton election, with Tom Hanks on board as a producer.

John Oliver, HBO, Time Warner and the writers of Last Week Tonight are being sued by Republican coal baron Robert E. Murray. The suit, filed in Marshall County, West Virginia, alleges that the show "executed a meticulously planned attempt to assassinate the character of and reputation of Mr. Robert E. Murray and his companies" in a recent episode. It continues: "They did this to a man who needs a lung transplant, a man who does not expect to live to see the end of this case."

Season seven of Game of Thrones has only just begun, and already HBO is cracking down on people illegally downloading the wildly popular TV series. But it's questionable how successful the TV network's attack will be, especially when many pirates are turning to streaming — a form of piracy that's hard to track but easy to do, even for Luddites.

It’s cyber deja vu time in Hollywood. HBO just confirmed that hackers broke into their servers and stole an unknown quantity of data. Now, unreleased episodes of Ballers and Room 104 have appeared online as well a script that looks an awful lot like next week’s Game of Thrones episode. This is not a drill.

On HBO's Silicon Valley, startups promise to "change the world" by tackling silly, often nonexistent problems. But this season, the show's characters are tackling a project that really could make a difference. In their latest pivot, Richard Hendricks and the Pied Piper gang are trying to create a new internet that cuts out intermediaries like Facebook, Google, and the fictional Hooli. Their idea: Use a peer-to-peer network built atop every smartphone on the planet, effectively rendering huge data centers full of servers unnecessary.
