You’re severely underestimating how popular the Harry Potter franchise still is.
Hogwarts Legacy was the best selling game in 2023.
Leave it to HBO post discovery merger man
Look at what happened to TLOU
ngl this show is guaranteed to be a hit
That's what people said about TLOU season 2

You underestimate zaslav
Not to mention Universal Studios just built a brand new theme park with a whole section dedicated to Harry Potter . And wait times for the new ride are averaging like 200 minutes .
This show will not flop
JK Rowling the MJ of books fr
You underestimate zaslav
He’s not running the show — the showrunners are two of the most successful writers/directors in TV this past decade

The extreme cope that people have to hate this show is crazy
Literally going to be MAGA levels of being out of touch with reality when it comes to their a***ysis of the quality/success of it because of how much they hate that it exists (and/or their hatred of Rowling)

niche????
Maybe but the supporting cast were regularly some of the best actors on earth
Didn't say anything about the supporting cast
Didn't say anything about the supporting cast
I know I'm just saying the supporting cast more than made up for anything
I've never watched any HP movie
Going blind into this show
You got enough time to read and watch. Reading them could make this show transcendent for you (if they execute properly)
still hilarious to me that Voldemort couldve made any item into a horcrux and he didnt make at least one into a random rock on the beach
Been thinking a lot about the Snape casting. The whole “James will look racist” thing is pretty dumb when they can easily cast a black Lupin or Sirius
Hermoine Audition tape is seemingly out. It’s very good. Even if it’s not the actual tape, she’ll be a fantastic hermoine
i get it but if i’m given the chance to earn Harry Potter money for 10+ years i’m taking the bag and running
This will be lucky to go more than 2 seasons man
This will go for 7 seasons easily with each book every season
And I'm confident it will be bigger and better than the 8 movies
HBO don't f***ing play when it comes to series and no way they are going to butcher the biggest series in the making on their platform

It's not her HP audition but yeah, after seeing it I think they nailed it.
