15 teen shows on HBO Max, from 'PLL: Original Sin' to 'Euphoria'

It's rare for teen dramas to win or even be nominated for Emmys, but HBO's "Euphoria" has garnered critical acclaim (and two Emmys for star Zendaya!) after two seasons. In 2021, "Generation" caught our attention shortly after the first three episodes aired on HBO Max, despite its recent cancellation. Without a doubt, HBO is ushering in a new era of realistic teen shows. From inside the walls of high schools in places like Orange County and Italy, HBO's fictional characters explore modern topics that affect teens in a way that clearly resonates with teenage audiences. and adult.

But make no mistake: the streamer also has plenty of fantastic high school shows. "Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin" is a gorier take on the Freeform original you know and love, and "Titans" puts a more youthful spin on the DC Universe. Plus, if you're tuning in to HBO's second season of the "Gossip Girl" reboot and want to rewatch your favorite returning episodes, or if you're interested in finding a brand new show as exhilarating as having your first fucking behind the bleachers, look no further than HBO Max. These shows are so good - wait until you tell everyone at school.
