3 great new HBO Max shows to watch this week (June 15-21)
Jun 17, 2026 | Guides
Dragons are about to eat your weekend. HBO Max’s House of the Dragon returns for season 3 on June 21, and depending on who you ask, it’s the most anticipated thing landing on any streaming service all year. The small catch, though: it arrives on the last day of this post’s window, which makes this week more about prepping—rewatching season two (or at least the last few episodes), remembering which Targaryen wants which other Targaryen dead, names, illegitimate children, etc. But if Westeros isn’t your favorite destination, HBO Max is hardly short on other new shows to watch, either.
