Shows
Game of Thrones
The award-winning HBO fantasy series returns for its fifth season on Sunday, April 12. The series is adapted from the George R. R. Martin’s novels, A Song of Ice and Fire. The story takes place on the fictional continents of Westeros and Essos and includes several overlapping storylines as different families fight for power.
Silicon Valley
This HBO comedy is still relatively new, entering just its second season on Sunday, April 12. The series stars six young men who create a startup company in—you guessed it—Silicon Valley. The characters find that it may be more difficult to deal with success than achieving the success itself.
Last Week Tonight with John Oliver
British comedian John Oliver hosts this weekly late night show that features special guests along with satire on politics and current events. The show is often compared to The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, especially because John Oliver is a former correspondent of the program. Last Week Tonight airs on Sunday nights. 
Veep
Julia Louis-Dreyfus leads in HBO’s smart comedy as its fourth season is set to premiere on Sunday, April 12. The former Seinfeld star has earned multiple Emmys for her performance as Selina Meyer, the Vice President of the United States. It turns out being the VP is not quite what she expected.
