  Bruh @hbomax YOUR DRIVE CAM FEED IS AWFUL TODAY SOUND DOES NOT MATCH UP AT ALL

• 
  GAHRO (@GAHRO7) reported 6 minutes ago

  @hbomax It's 2026 and Hollywood is still doing the "replace the old, broken, deadbeat white character with the universally superior black one." This **** is so tiresome. Won't watch it.

  @MrSockPuppet @StephenKing @hbomax I'm watching it now, and it's pacing is off. The story bounces around a lot. The acting, stars Thomas Jane, Jason Lee, Damian Lewis, Timothy Olyphant, Morgan Freeman, Tom Sizemore, and Donnie Wahlberg improve the quality of the script and direction to acceptable.

  @hbomax I’d love if you gave your excellent character Samira Mohan a proper send off instead of expecting us to buy the “oh it’s a revolving door but you’re right it’s still part of her last year I guess she’s just not working that day” bs. Insulting the intelligence of your own audience

  @BaldSuperman309 @JamesGunn @hbomax The suit looks terrible. I'm not going to pretend that it doesn't like you guys do.

  @Xvogiwxe @HouseofDragon @hbomax What a terrible way to watch a show

  @enhathusiasts @hbomax Your location could be the issue. Try AmneziaVPN and switch regions

  @JamesGunn @hbomax I'm afraid that this looks terrible.

  @hbomax Wow, this looks awful!

  @JamesGunn @hbomax yeah man, afraid you're adapting one of the best comic book heroes of all time in the worst way possible

  Jason Green (@JasonGreen464) reported 48 minutes ago

  @HBO @hbomax Wouldn't moving people from less polluting third world countries to more polluting first world countries make the problem worse?

  @Nerdrotics @HouseofDragon @hbomax Nah Viserys was a weak sissy who caused a succession crisis then shoved his head in the sand and just pretended it was never there instead of tackling the issue head on before blood started flowing.

  @ninakokino98 @hbomax I also think it’s obvious Robby thinks she’s not right for a busy ED (because she does have a tendency to want to provide … let’s say *** levels of care) … and Robby is obviously totally unequipped to help her with her anxiety (and in fact is actively harmful on that front!)

  Carl (@destream_cl) reported 52 minutes ago

  @TheEricGoldman @hbomax It does the same thing for a bunch of the Smiling Friends post credits scenes too. Honestly one of the worst ideas I’ve ever seen implemented into a streaming service

  they ruined da pitt for meow meow 🌱 (@ninakokino98) reported 53 minutes ago

  @legalrealist @hbomax season 2 : 3 woc are not returning - season 3 : a resident who should still be there, a main character, isn't returning after a discourse about the way the white lead treated the character + 2 med student ( 1 asian/1white ) so you gonna tell me there isn't an issue?

  @USMNT @HBODocs @hbomax I’m not watching any more of this series unless you get rid of that moron Alex lalASS! He’s just the worst.

  masazoAEW&WWEfun 🦄 (@Rockford_619) reported 53 minutes ago

  @AEW @hbomax Jay White won't be coming. Kairi, who was rumored to be coming, hasn't even been here for 90 days yet, so she won't be showing up either. Takeshita won. I think he'll be restless at work. There's about one Japanese fan here.

  legalrealist (Bluesky: legalrealist.bsky.social) (@legalrealist) reported 58 minutes ago

  @ninakokino98 @hbomax So it’s not a story inconsistency / failure issue if she’s just off whatever day they show next. And if they aren’t inspired to have a big plot with her character, i think it’s probably a good thing that they won’t just have the actress standing around in the background!

  @hbomax Who is the idiot that decided to only show 10 movies in the A-Z section of every genre. I am paying for all of those movies on your server. I need to be able to see every single movie that I am paying for sometimes people enjoy just browsing movies and trailers. Fix it.
