HBO and Sky have been knocking it out of the park in 2023: Succession and The Last of Us have been arguably two of the biggest TV events in years, but for me the best product of this trans-Atlantic partnership is Barry. The fourth and final season, currently streaming on NOW and Sky Go, has me hooked – and you will be too.
Creator and star Bill Hader plays the titular Barry, a former marine turned hitman. Series one starts with Barry joining burnt-out actor Gene M. Cousineau’s acting class (played by the Fonz himself Henry Winkler) to case out a target, but it soon becomes clear that his passion is for the stage and not the world of contract killing.
