Binged 2021 - Hacks - Season One

Hacks is the latest success from HBO Max. Following the buzz worthy mid season finale of Gossip Girl yesterday.

Hacks aired back in May in the USA, however Stan dumped all ten season one episodes this month in Oz.

Starring Jean Smart, Hannah Einbinder, and Carl Clemons-Hopkins, like The White Lotus, this is one of the BEST shows of 2021. I am so grateful the show has already been renewed the series for a second season.

Deborah Vance (Jean Smart) is a legendary Las Vegas stand-up comedy diva, trying to maintain relevance as the head of the casino where she performs tries to pare down on her performance dates. Ava (Hannah Einbinder) is a Gen Z comedy writer who is unable to find work due to being "canceled" over an insensitive tweet. The two reluctantly team up to freshen up Vance's material and learn to respect each other's differences.


The show has so many highs, its laugh out loud funny, the two leads are super likeable, this show is a bloody winner!

So in this extended Lockdown 2.0, Hacks is honestly the show you need to priorities right NOW! Jean Smart is worlds away from her role in Mare of Easttown. Both shows have easily been some of the nest TV in 2021.

Hacks season one streams on Stan.
