HBO Max: The Best TV Shows and Movies to Stream

And with that, a new streaming platform has entered the ring. HBO Max finally launched after the much-talked-about announcement that they’ll soon release the anticipated Snyder Cut of “Justice League,” “Friends,” every Studio Ghibli movie, and thousands of other titles.

Remember when Bruce Springsteen lamented that there were 57 channels and nothin’ on? With the May 27 launch of the WarnerMedia subscription service HBO Max, cord-cutting viewers -- already spoiled by the likes of Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, Disney+, CBS All Access and Apple TV plus -- can browse more than 10,000 hours of curated programming crossing all genres and demographics.

Laura Benanti and HBO Max will give high school students from around the chance to perform in a pandemic-proof musical with the newly announced special “Homeschool Musical: Class of 2020.”

HBO Max is planning to bring a ton of original movies and shows to the new streaming service, and several of those titles were made available at launch.

HBO Max is officially the future home of “Zack Snyder’s Justice League,” aka The Snyder Cut. The film (TV miniseries?) is expected to arrive in 2021 and has been described by the filmmaker as a massive redo of the superhero film that flopped at the box office and failed to excite fans back in 2017.

One thing that’s instantly striking about HBO Max’s rom-com anthology series “Love Life” is the exacting period detail for each year of the 2010s it depicts. When the show declares an episode is set in 2012, the iPhones and text messages actually look like they did in that exact year.

Congratulations! You just signed up for your billionth streaming service, the shiny new HBO Max. It comes from your friends at WarnerMedia and is like HBO GO and HBO NOW, but better, because in addition to Game of Thrones, it has Friends. Also, not only does it have The Sopranos, it also has Friends. And it's not just limited to HBO hits like The Wire, Barry, Big Little Lies, and Six Feet Under, because in addition to those prestige hits, it has Friends. 

HBO Max has gone live today, after seven months of anticipation.

HBO Max launched today, just in time to offer a brand-new library of streaming shows if you’ve already exhausted Netflix, Hulu, Apple+ and Disney+ during your coronavirus quarantine.

The TARDIS has found a new home. If you're looking to binge Doctor Who -- whether it's your first time or your 500th — you can now find the series on HBO Max.

HBO Max is coming in hot with a ton of new content, including plenty of exciting titles that are available at launch.

WarnerMedia officially enters the streaming wars with the launch of its platform, HBO Max, which includes 10,000 hours worth of content thanks to a mix of originals — an Amy Schumer docuseries, Anna Kendrick’s, the reality competition series — and a deep library of fan favorites, such as and, as well as all of HBO’s award-winning series.
