5 Great Sci-Fi TV Shows on HBO and Max Right Now (April 2025)


Science fiction is one of the most dominant genres around — and it’s not hard to understand why. With the rise of AI, the invention of self-driving cars and $100,000 humanoid robots for purchase (yes, that’s real), it often feels like the future is already here. HBO and Max have plenty of quality sci-fi shows…

Set 10,000 years before the first Dune, the series explores the origins of the mysterious Bene Gesserit, a secret organization populated by powerful women who exert control over the universe’s political, social and religious circles. Sisters and allies Valya ( Emily Watson) and Tula Harkonnen ( Olivia Williams) want to secure the safety of humanity, but can they withstand betrayals from within their own group as well as prepare for the “reckoning,” a prophecy that could end them all? The first season was a relatively faithful adaptation of the massively popular 2013 Naughty Dog game, telling the story of outbreak survivors Joel (Pascal) and Ellie ( Bella Ramsey) as they cross a postapocalyptic United States while trying to avoid “the infected.”
