The best single-season series on HBO Max

Before we start we have to mention that below you will find series of all kinds since, as we have already mentioned, the only requirement that we have set to select them is that they have a single season at the time of writing this article. It is also necessary to comment that most of these series have a single season because the plot required it, but there are also those that saw their following seasons being cancelled, although I am telling you right now that it is not something so common on this platform.

Now without further delay we begin:

• blood brothers
• The Night of
• Chernobyl
• Watchmen
• Open wounds
• The Undoing
• ThePacific

blood brothers

We started strong talking about one of the best war series in history which we have already talked about on other occasions, being that this is also one of the best finished series that you can find on HBO Max, as well as one of the best HBO Max series according to IMDB.

Beyond this we find ourselves before a series that it is not at all for all audiences since it deals with the most unpleasant topics for a certain type of public. If that is not your case, that is, you have no problems with raw war stories, you will find in Blood Brothers one of the series that best portrays war.

• Year: 2001
• Seasons: one
• Chapters: 10
• Average duration: 55 minutes

The Night of

We go from war drama to a somewhat more conventional drama to talk about The Night of, a series that could perfectly be one of the best drama series on HBO Max. If you want to see a drama story wrapped in an unsolved murder, with our protagonist being considered a murderer, this is the perfect series for you.

In addition to the aforementioned, being a series of a single season you can see it in just one afternoonso you won’t lose the thread of the story at any time, thus removing from the root one of the great problems of series of this type.

• Year: 2016
• Seasons: one
• Chapters: 8
• Average duration: 60 minutes

Chernobyl

Chernobyl is another series that we have mentioned many times, and it is that we find what can be perfectly considered one of the best HBO Max series in general. this series turned out to be quite a hit when it arrived on the platform, liking a large number of people and falling in love with those who wanted to know more about the incident that occurred in Chernobyl. If you like series that end up looking more like a documentary than a fiction series, this is your favorite series.

• Year: 2019
• Seasons: one
• Chapters: 5
• Average duration: 60 minutes

Watchmen

Do you remember the Wathcmen movie? Well don’t be afraid if you didn’t like this film, because the series we are going to talk about today does not have much to do with this movie. Here we are in an alternative world compared to the comics that it adapts, and in it the vigilantes (that is, the Watchmen) are treated as criminals instead of as heroes.

This series may not be the best on the list, but it is most interesting and funso much so that it managed to make the public and critics fall in love when it was released, unlike what happened in many cases with the homonymous film that we talked about earlier.

• Year: 2019
• Seasons: one
• Chapters: 9
• Average duration: 55 minutes

Open wounds

Now we are going to talk about a dramatic series like few others, which tries to deal with the issue of mental health and manages to do it in a very commendable way. It manages to fall in love from beginning to end, engaging and making us finish the series in a very short time. In addition, for lovers of this type of series, it also includes a plot related to murders, murders which will have to be investigated by our protagonist, who is a journalist recently released from a psychiatric hospital.

• Year: 2018
• Seasons: one
• Chapters: 8
• Average duration: 50 minutes

The Undoing

It seems that the thing is about dramas in this list because now we are going to talk about a series belonging to this genre, but that at first it seems to try to deceive us by presenting us to an ideal family, and soon after everything went to waste. Our protagonist is a successful woman, but after a certain tragic event she sees how her whole life turns upside down and her main mission will become to give her son a decent life.

• Year: 2020
• Seasons: one
• Chapters: 6
• Average duration: 50 minutes

ThePacific

Now let’s talk about the spiritual successor of a series that we already talked about in this list, and is that The Pacific is considered the successor of Blood Brothers, not only because of its war theme, but because it was also produced by Steven Spielberg. If you have already seen this series that we could see starting this list, I recommend that you give The Pacific a chance. Also, if you like the war theme, this is another series that you should see yes or yes.

• Year: 2010
• Seasons: one
• Chapters: 10
• Average duration: 50 minutes
