HBO boasts a library of original TV shows unmatched by any other streaming service in the industry. Dating back to its work in the late '90s on The Sopranos, and also filled out by other hit shows like The Wire and True Detective, HBO has proven to be the premier home for the most prestigious series. However, just because HBO releases prestige shows every year, like Succession and The White Lotus, doesn’t mean the studio can’t blur the lines a bit with some great action shows that also border on the prestige level.
One of the most overlooked HBO shows of the last decade is Warrior, a three-season martial arts masterpiece that aired from 2019 to 2023. The show is set during the Tong Wars in the late 1800s, and it follows Ah Sahm, a martial arts prodigy from China who immigrates to San Francisco and becomes a hatchet man for a powerful Chinese crime boss. Warrior stars Andrew Koji, Olivia Cheng, and Jason Tobin, and it earned immaculate scores of 93% from critics and 95% from audiences on Rotten Tomatoes. The action is on par with John Wick for some of the best ever brought to the big or small screen.
All three seasons of Warrior began streaming on Netflix in February 2024, where the show picked up an even larger audience than it had on HBO. Unfortunately, now two years after its addition, Netflix has confirmed that it will remove Warrior from its streaming library on February 15. The show will continue to stream in its entirety on HBO Max, but this is still a tragic blow for fans of the hit kung fu show.

The most popular show on Netflix right now is Unfamiliar, the German spy thriller that aired at the start of February. The show has dethroned new seasons of The Lincoln Lawyer, Bridgerton, and even Love Is Blind to reach the pinnacle of Netflix streaming charts. Netflix also has some wildly popular movies in its streaming library right now, including Noah, the 2014 biblical epic starring Russell Crowe. Glen Powell’s Twisters also recently arrived on Netflix globally, and after previously smashing streaming charts on Peacock and Prime Video, it’s no surprise it’s doing the same on the world's biggest streamer.
