I'm having trouble getting into Dune Prophecy. It's on HBO and Max

The problem I'm having with it is the whole Bene Gesserit thing. It's sort of like it makes you hate religious orders if you already didn't already. I'm thinking someone that really hated religions or was an atheist wrote this maybe. However, sometimes things get better as you watch more of them. 

For example, my wife and I totally hated Deadpool and Wolverine (the first half) and had really given up completely on this movie but then the 2nd half we found interesting.

I would describe the 1st half of Deadpool and Wolverine as "OVERKILL" which made you wonder why you had ever watched this movie in the first place? But, the 2nd half was more interesting.

So, hopefully this is all SETUP and preparing the audience for more interesting stuff and that's all in Dune Prophecy because it's a series and not just another movie.

By the way the 6th and last episode will air December 22th 2024.

So, it might be something like House of the Dragon in the future or something eventually.
