"Watchmen"

"Game of Thrones" ends on Sunday, but HBO still has plenty to offer the rest of the year.

The hit fantasy series has been HBO's biggest show over the course of its eight seasons and the final season has been a ratings hit. The premium cable network is developing a prequel series, but in the meantime, viewers shouldn't necessarily give up on HBO.

The second season of its Emmy-winning and star-studded drama, "Big Little Lies," premieres next month, and its first superhero series, "Watchmen," comes later this year from "Lost" and "The Leftovers" cocreator Damon Lindelof.
