HBO boss isn't interested in reviving True Blood or Six Feet Under: "Believe it or not I don’t my spend time thinking about what shows to reboot"

The Hollywood Reporter

"I just want to point out that if you look at the last year, between Mare of Easttown, The White Lotus and Succession and Insecure and now Euphoria and Gilded Age and going into Winning Time, there’s no reboots," HBO and HBO Max chief content officer Casey Bloys said in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter. "In most those cases, they weren’t based on existing IP. I do want to take a moment to make clear that we don’t spend our days thinking about what to reboot because it’s a tricky business bringing a show back. But to your question, True Blood, there were a couple ideas in development but nothing has really come to the fore. As far as Six Feet Under, I personally don’t think that’s a good idea. I think there are some shows that are better left, in Six Feet Under’s case, dead — or finished. So no other news on that front." What about Lena Dunham recently saying there were informal discussions to revive Girls? "I think Lena was half joking about that," says Bloys. "There are no real discussions about revisiting it. I would put Girls in with Sopranos and Six Feet Under as not something I’m thinking about bringing back."
