HBO (Home Box Office) is an American premium cable and streaming network that offers a variety of programming, including movies, TV series, documentaries, and special events. It is owned by WarnerMedia, a division of AT&T’s WarnerMedia Studios & Networks Group.
HBO was founded in 1972 as a subscription-based cable network that initially broadcasted movies and sporting events. It was the first network to use satellite delivery for programming, which allowed it to reach a wider audience than traditional cable networks. Over the years, HBO has expanded its programming to include original TV series, documentaries, and specials.
Some of HBO’s most popular shows have included The Sopranos, Sex and the City, Game of Thrones, The Wire, and Curb Your Enthusiasm. In addition to its cable channel, HBO also operates a streaming service called HBO Max, which offers a vast library of content from the HBO network and other WarnerMedia properties.
Today, HBO is one of the leading premium cable and streaming networks in the world, known for its high-quality programming and groundbreaking original series.

Please note that some of these numbers are easier to find than others. A few of these HBO statistics come from their own reports, but some are based on news reports and not official company tallies. No information contained on DMR should be relied upon to make investment decisions. Basically, this is the best I can find and I don’t guarantee anything to be 100%.
