The Idol has quickly become HBO’s least loved series and its lacking quality leaves many wondering how it will affect the network’s shiny reputation.

The Idol episode 4 trailer previews the next chapter in HBO’s controversial new drama as Tedros continues to insert himself into Jocelyn’s life.

HBO addresses reports that The Idol, the channel’s controversial new series from Euphoria creator Sam Levinson, has been cancelled after two episodes.

Abel Tesfaye, known by his stage name The Weeknd, claims that The Idol’s cringe sex scenes aren’t supposed to be sexy and are meant to be satire.

The Idol’s po-faced self-seriousness could have been punctured by The Weeknd’s sense of humor. Instead, he’s the mopiest character in the HBO drama.

The Idol episode 2 sees Jocelyn at her lowest as her grief keeps her from improving her career, and worse, causes her team to lose faith in her.

The Idol episode 2 introduces a new and sinister plotline with Nikki and Dyanne that could be a serious upset for Jocelyn’s career in the future.
