2023 has been a pretty epic year for TV fans, but it also brought many bittersweet moments our way. Some of the most acclaimed shows of the early 2020s ended their run this year, and here are five that will be gravely missed after 2023 comes to a close.

Reservation Dogs

One of the most underrated comedy series to launch in recent years, Reservation Dogs did a great job shedding a light on the Indigenous community through the tale of four teens trying to leave the “rez life” behind and start anew in California.

The Great

Hulu left us with three wild, highly fictional seasons about Catherine the Great’s rise to power in the Russian Empire when they made an unexpected decision to cancel this acclaimed historical satire earlier this year.

Succession

HBO ushered in a new era of prestige TV with their smash-hit Succession. Watching the members of the Roy family battle for control of their media empire Waystar RoyCo was one wild ride, and the last season gave us a fitting conclusion to this story.

Barry

Crime comedies experienced quite a boom in recent years, but none of them could compare to Barry ­– the tale of a hired hitman who decides to turn his life around and become an actor.

S-x Education

One of the most impactful teen series to premiere in recent years, S-x Education came to a conclusion after four seasons, allowing its stars Asa Butterfield, Ncuti Gatwa, and Emma Mackey to pursue other creative endeavors.

Bill Hader and Alec Berg gave us one of the most riveting comedy shows in recent years with Barry, but all good things must come to an end. HBO confirmed that this dark crime dramedy will end its run with the upcoming fourth season, set to premiere this spring.

Barry centers on a veteran and hitman who tries to turn his life around by traveling to Los Angeles and becoming an actor. Despite his best attempts to start anew, he’s constantly being haunted by his past and pulled back into the life of crime that affects everyone around him.

In addition to co-creating the show alongside Berg, Hader also plays the titular role, while the rest of the cast includes Henry Winkler, Stephen Root, Michael Irby, Anthony Carrigan, and Sarah Goldberg.

Hader also directed all the episodes in Season 4 and told Variety it made sense to end the show after “a very clear ending presented itself”.

“What happens in Season 4 is structurally radical in some ways, but it made sense for what I think the characters needed to go through… You realize, well, we could pad a lot of stuff, and just make story. But if we’re going forward, it ends in Season 4,” explained Hader.

Season 4 of Barry will premiere on HBO on April 16, and it will feature a total of eight episodes.

Good news Barry fans!

Multiple outlets confirm that HBO has renewed the dark comedy for a third season. The renewal comes just two weeks after the show’s second season debuted on March 31. 

Barry hails from co-creators and executive producers Bill Hader and Alec Berg. Hader also stars as the titular character. 

The half-hour drama follows the titular character (Hader), a hitman who discovers a passion for acting when he comes to Los Angeles on a job. While the first season followed Barry as he stumbled into the world of acting, season two will follow him as he attempts to extricate himself from the world of contract killing and fully immerse himself in acting.

Stephen Root, Sarah Goldberg, Anthony Carrigan, and Henry Winkler also star. 

The HBO series won three Emmys for its first season, with Hader and Winkler each taking home awards for their roles in 2018. The show also won the award for sound mixing. 

The news comes just two weeks after the show’s second season premiered on March 31.

Barry joins HBO’s 2019-2020 roster alongside Ballers, Divorce, High Maintenance, Insecure, Los Espookys and The Righteous Gemstones.

2018 gave us a few pretty amazing new shows, but they were as strong as their best characters. Take a look five amazing protagonists who kept us glued to our TV screens this year.

Gene Cousineau (Barry)

Self-obsessed stand-up professor Gene Cousineau may not be the lead character of HBO hit Barry, but Henry Winkler transformed him into the most compelling character on this show.

Villanelle (Killing Eve)

Killing Eve was one of the most fascinating new shows of 2018, but it would never work if Jodie Comer failed to bring gravitas to the role of brutal assassin Villanelle.

Amma Crellin (Sharp Objects)

Sharp Objects gave us one of the biggest twist endings of the year, and it would’ve never worked if it wasn’t for Amma.

Teddy Perkins (Atlanta)

We can’t remember the last time an episodic character created this much buzz, praise, and controversy at the same time.

Sabrina Spellman (Chilling Adventures of Sabrina)

Fans of the world’s most popular teenage witch waited years to see her live her best life on the small screen, and Kiernan Shipka finally answered their prayers with this Netflix hit series.

Expect more good laughter on HBO in the future. The network has revealed on Thursday that comedies Silicon Valley and Barry have received orders for new seasons which are expected to debut in 2019.

“While Barry has delighted audiences with its deft interplay of comedy and drama, Silicon Valley remains as brilliantly and frighteningly prescient as ever,” said Amy Gravitt, executive vice president of HBO programming in a statement. “We’re thrilled that these two smart, funny shows are returning for another season.”

Silicon Valley became a big hit for HBO since its premiere in 2014. Focusing on a group of men who are trying to build a successful tech company in Silicon Valley, the show is currently three episodes into its fifth season. Although the current season was marked by a departure of one of the show’s main stars T.J. Miller, Silicon Valley is still producing big ratings for HBO so the decision to renew it for the sixth season isn’t a big surprise. While there were rumors earlier that the show could end with season six, this might not be the case now.

“Looking at these episodes, it kind of takes on a new life and a second wind to me in a way,”- said co-creator Mike Judge in a recent interview. “I think it could go on for a while; you never know.”

Barry, which stars Bill Hader, premiered just recently on HBO and focuses on a hitman who travels to Los Angeles to do a job, only to find himself joining the local arts scene. Barry received positive reviews since its premiere.
