What's coming to (and going from) HBO in May.

Maybe you've heard of a little company called HBO? 

Even when it's not attached to Game of Thrones (another underdog in the entertainment game), the premium cable and streaming brand is broadcasting shows old and new — plus an impressive (but not overwhelming) movie library for those lazy nights in.

Here's what's coming and going from HBO in May

Top pick: 27 Dresses

Who could forget the 2008 Katherine Heigl/James Marsden film that epitomized rom-coms in an era without Meg Ryan and Hugh Grant movies? Even if romantic comedies are now lingering in obscurity (and thinkpieces about gender inequality), 27 Dresses is still a guilt-free pleasure full of genre clichés (a newspaper writer, a hopeless romantic, a bawdy best friend played by the inimitable Judy Greer) and genuine emotion.
