For the first 20 years or so of HBO’s life it never quite hit it truly big, showing a mixed bag of sports, documentary, and comedy programming. Then in the early-to-mid-90s it hit with a string of relatively successful cult shows, such as The Larry Sanders Show, Mr Show With Bob and David, and The Chris Rock Show.
While they were an indication of the cable channel’s desire to increase the quality of its original output, it was 1997 when the game really changed, with the release of Oz. It may not be particularly well-remembered, especially in the pantheon of great shows they’ve aired since, but it paved the way for what was to come.
