Emmys 2015: Andy Samberg's HBO Now Password Actually Works, Try It

Well, thanks, HBO and Andy Samberg! The host of the 2015 Emmy Awards had a little segment during the show where he offered up "his" HBO Now password, to give millions of viewers access to the most nominated network. His username and password sounded so fake it was almost not worth seeing if they'd work ... until fans online started noting that it did work. So we followed the instructions and entered this username and password into HBO Now:

Khaleesifan3@EmmyHost.com
password1

It worked. It takes you to this page, with "Andy" noted as the user in the top right corner:


Before "Andy" it read "Thanks" and was later changed to "SAMBERG," so don't be surprised if it keeps changing. If you click on "Andy" -- or whatever -- it takes you to this page with his name and what was a "fakefakefake" e-mail address but is now apparently being changed (by fans?) every few minutes. Here's how it looked around 9:30 p.m. ET on Emmys night:


However it looks, it gives you a free trial of HBO programming. So now fans are catching up on "Game of Thrones," "Veep" and other shows they couldn't afford to watch before:

Thank you, HBO and Andy! No idea how long this will last, so enjoy it while you can.
