HBO Max greenlights Grease series Rydell High

It just gets worse and worse over there.

So Glee but for nostalgic boomers?

This is bound to suck bigly.

They could use the original cast and position it as a horror series.

Especially if they include Jeff Conaway.

What is odd about this is that HBO Max is supposed to exist so AT&T can mine Warner Bros IP, and yet they’re ordering this from Paramount.

As an HBONow subscriber, I guess HBOMax is good because basically it will be the same as Now but with even more content and for supposedly the same basic price.

No HBO Now will not include HBO Max. You will have to subscribe to both.

I wish Eve Arden and Dodie Goodman were still around for it.

Well I think the idea is everyone will cancel HboNow and get HboMax. I expect that HboNow will be going the way of the Dodo.

The rumor is Max will launch for $17, and why i am going to pay not pay two more dollars.

Though whether people who don't subscribe to HBO now will be tempted like Max like they are hoping, I am not so sure.

HBO Max will not include any new content from HBO.

You are mistaken r10. HBOMax is going to include everything that HBONow does. It's going to make HBONow largely obsolete.

Ok I misunderstood. It’s very confusing.

So HBO Max will include HBO Now and may even cost the same. That means they may lower the cost of HBO Now. So, they may lower it to 10 and price HBO Max fifteen, to compete with Netflix

In a short while just streaming channels will cost than what a month of cable costs now.

by Anonymousreply 13October 15, 2019 8:01 PM

Yes that is basically the point

Streaming is just a more efficient way of delivering the same garbage

by Anonymousreply 14October 15, 2019 8:53 PM

Efficient for whom? It's a pain in the ass to Roku all these channels and smart TV's ain't that smart to get them all either.
