Watch I Love LA: Preview
Rachel Sennott is ready for her close-up. The star of raunchy, acid-tongued films like Bottoms (2023) and Bodies Bodies Bodies (2022) is about to hit the big time with I Love LA: an eight-part series for HBO that she created and executive produced, and which follows a group of friends as they strive for love and success in the City of Angels. Intrigued? Below we have everything you need to know about how to watch I Love LA online, no matter where you are in the world.
For those anticipating an obsequious ode to the titular city, rest assured: that title should be read with one eyebrow quizzically raised. Like Lena Dunham’s Girls, I Love LA is based on Sennott’s experiences in her late twenties, in particular her unhappy transition from NYC to North Hollywood mid-COVID for an ABC sitcom that was quickly cancelled. And, intentional or otherwise, the title conjures up the 1983 Randy Newman track which, although outwardly espousing the California lifestyle, carried a critical undercurrent.
Given Sennott’s satiric comic instincts, I Love LA is bound to be more than a little bit salty. The eight-part series follows Sennott as Maia, an aspiring talent manager who’s just hit 30, and her co-dependent group of friends, including nepo-baby Alani (True Whitaker) and celebrity stylist Charlie (Jordan Firstman). Despite her efforts, Maia’s career has stalled - “promotions are tough” her boss pouts behind her desk while getting her nails done.
So when former college bestie Tallulah (Odessa A’zion) turns up at her apartment after ditching her years ago, despite Maia being responsible for her social media stardom, buried resentments arise. Her return also causes a juvenile regression in Maia that her well-grounded boyfriend Dylan (Josh Hutcherson), a Spanish teacher with no interest in vacuous celebrity, can’t quite understand.
Taking an outrageously honest look of Gen Z life in Los Angeles and the heart and humiliation necessary to succeed, I Love LA promises a messy reality check to Hollywood’s sanitized glamour, with a few tongue-in-cheek A-list appearances thrown in. Think FX’s Adults, or HBO’s groundbreaking Girls…but relocated to the West Coast.
Don’t miss HBO’s highly-anticipated new comedy: read on where we explain how to watch I Love LA online on HBO Max in the US and from anywhere with a VPN.
Watch I Love LA online in the US

How to watch I Love LA online from anywhere
If you're a US citizen on vacation or working overseas, you can still watch I Love LA online just as you would at home.
While services like HBO Max block access from IP addresses outside of the US, there's a handy piece of software called a VPN that can change your IP address to make it look like you're accessing streaming services from any country in the world.
For example, US citizens overseas can subscribe to a VPN, join a US-based server and access their subscription from anywhere in the world, just like they would back home.
How to use a VPN to unblock streaming services:
1. Choose your ideal VPN and install – our go-to recommendation for unblocking is NordVPN, costing from $3.99 a month with its 2-year plan
2. Connect to a server – for HBO Max, for example, you'll want to connect to a server based in the US or Australia.
3. Go to the stream you wish to access - to watch I Love LA, head to HBO Max.
