You really think that HBO is going to stop airing scripted content?


HBO Max and HBO are two different things.

HBO Max is losing its scripted content. So shows like Tokyo Vice, The Time Traveler's Wife, and Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin are probably going to die a quick and painless death.

If they kill all of the Max shows that includes Peacemaker and Doom Patrol.

They are also killing all original scripted content on TNT and TBS. Don't be shocked if the HBO shows get massively paired down too.

This new guy doesn't give a shite about quality or shows w/strong but smaller fanbases. He wants cheap bullshite reality crap or mega hits w/scripted content. No mid level scripted shows will be safe.

He wants to combine the god awful Netflix model w/the god awful Discovery model. It's going to ruin HBO for the time being.

It’s really hard to know what is HBO Max and what is HBO content bc I watch everything through the app.

I assume that’s what most people do.

Other than Game of Thrones, I don’t know if anything else is “appointment television” and the world is a better place for it.

It’s up there with CDs and television channels showing music videos as things that will never be viable again.

The question is why?

And what happens to HBO's library of content if HBOMax folds into Discovery's shitty app?
