I'm guessing this is an error because Harley Quinn has now made it's way to TNT, which has to edit content for basic cable. I'm guessing the TNT version got sent there by mistake.

A Staircase limited dramatic series? Cool, though that story is so well known now I wonder what there is to tell.
Lots of good stuff in that trailer.

I'm guessing a lot of people who watch the Staircase series won't be familiar with the documentary - I only became familiar with it myself when it got its updated episodes a few years back.

All 7 seasons of the CBS show The Mentalist was just added. I'm impressed with the slowly bigger library of WB TV shows they are adding.
I liked The Mentalist when it aired. I did miss some of the final episodes of the final season, so I may catch up at some point.

Re: HBO Max — Warnermedia streaming service
So HBO customer service got back to me shortly after my last post in the summer and said they would look into the issue. I tried again several times after that and the HBO Now gift cards still would error out. Frustrated, I mentally wrote off the gift cards as a loss and forgot about them. Fast forward to the end of December, my girlfriend and I agreed to split HBO Max's annual sub deal. Before pulling the trigger, I thought "let me give the gift cards one last try." Only this time I figured I'd try it on yet another fresh browser and downloaded Brave. It worked! I didn't see the option for the cheaper ad-supported tier, so I'm good only until late February with this card. (Two more unused cards to go.) Hey, it saved me theater admission for the new Matrix movie, so that was a massive plus. Ha.
HBO Max's catalog is very impressive. Can't wait until the Righteous Gemstones comes back and I have been itching to watch the Woodstock 99 doc ever since I heard online chatter about it when it came out. The Other Two is a pretty funny show. Gonna find time for the JL Snyder Cut and see what the hubbub is all about. Priority was starting The Wire, though. I'd been avoiding it for years despite pleas from friends and relatives. Honestly, the near deafening praise was annoying. (See also: Hamilton, Radiohead, etc.) But my girlfriend and I are going to the Ravens/Steelers game this weekend (my first ever live NFL game!) and she joked I should get some local Baltimore flavor beforehand. So we binged the first season last week. Good show! I'll definitely proceed the remaining four seasons.

HBO Max Drops Subscription Price: Save 20% Off Monthly Plans
For a limited time, new and lapsed customers can choose between ad-supported and ad-free tiers starting at just $7.99 a month (regular $9.99) for the first year. The ad-free plan is discounted to $11.99 a month (regular $14.99) for the first 12 months. Both tiers allow users to stream tons of content and create up to five separate profiles, but with the ad-free plan, customers have the option to download titles to watch them offline and stream certain movies in 4K UHD.
The special promotion ends on Jan. 25 and does not apply to existing customers. The plans will automatically renew at the regular monthly price after the first year.

My sub through a cancelled phone plan ended last week so this is perfect timing.

Once again, we're 2yrs in and Max still isn't offering any of their original content in 4k. Why? Every other major platform is.

re: Max — Warner Bros. Discovery streaming service
Not to derail the thread but on YT, there's a recent clip upload of the infamous bus scene in Nobody (premiering on Max soon) in full 4k.
It's such an astonishing, breathtaking and beautifully choregraphed scene...gets me every time I watch.

Because lack of 4k isn't a deal breaker for nearly anyone. I wish they did too. I will say Peacemaker 1st episode, even in 1080p, looked hella good.

Re: HBO Max — Warnermedia streaming service
I don't think that's true anymore. If it was none of the other streaming services would be offering any new programming in 4k, but they all do.

Re: HBO Max — Warnermedia streaming service
Yet, you could watch the Olympics in 4K via some cable providers. And even Discovery+ offers 4K content.

Re: HBO Max — Warnermedia streaming service
But I’m talking about major streaming platforms, Netflix, Prime, Hulu, D+ and even Paramount+ Now (along with a few others). Frustrating when WB themselves was offering 4k content through their DCU platform yet the same content is only HD on HBO. They have the content, all their new shows are mastered at least in 2k, so it will be only a matter of time. Not sure why they’re not moving faster, it’s not like they don’t have the money.

Re: HBO Max — Warnermedia streaming service
How many people do you personally know that ditched HBO Max because of lack of 4k? I know of none. I am sure there are some out there somewhere. That number is probably very small. But it just isn't something average Joe Sixpack is going to bitch about and cancel his service.

Re: HBO Max — Warnermedia streaming service
Most of the movies I've watched on there have been 4K (the newer stuff), so I'm not too upset about anything. I get why some people are though.
Peacemaker has been fantastic so far and The Last Duel was added today - neither is in 4K though.

HBO MAX has a few movies in 4K DV/Atmos but ZERO 4K content for their TV Shows. Peacemaker is HD & 5.1.
I hope this changes soon, because it'd be nice to have 4K DV/Atmos for their series. I mean if Hulu can do it, HBO MAX can to.
