Popular HBO shows “True Blood” and “Silicon Valley” are heading to basic cable channels TNT and TBS as part of a new programming experiment from Warner Bros. Discovery. This could be the beginning of a new trend for Warner Bros. Discovery.

Jennifer Maas TV Business Writer Warner Bros. Discovery programming execs are trying a new experiment: Airing some iconic modern-day HBO programming on basic cable, beginning with comedy “Silicon Valley” on TBS and drama “True Blood” on TNT this Saturday.

While this is not the first time HBO content has been refashioned for cable — think “Sex and the City” or “The Sopranos,” both of which were sold into syndication — it does mark a first for programming produced and aired on HBO in more recent years. (“True Blood” ended in 2014, “Silicon Valley” concluded in 2019.)
