Just finished Deadwood! Damn, it REALLY sucks that it got cancelled. The ending is just so… meh. Which is a shame, because the last few episodes are AMAZING. Everything seems up in the air, just this amazing “thrown off your square”-ness and then the last episode comes and… Alma sells her mine and Hearst leaves town. Wu and Hawkeye both come through with supply a force to counter the Pinkertons and just.. nothing.
Even as a *season* finale it’s a bit of a letdown tbh. I know not everything needs a big climatic shootout, but still. Woulda been cool.
Thank god for the movie! I’ve heard it’s solid, I’m looking forward to it.
Sorry to hear that this will be the last season of #WinningTime As a veteran of the business I know that sports series are hard to attract and sustain a large audience. Sad because there was so much more of the story to tell and the casting was outstanding. Keeping my fingers crossed for another season of #HEELS which just finished a great cycle.

"It's Over" is an American song composed by Roy Orbison and #BillDees and sung by Orbison. The single was produced by #FredFoster and engineered by #BillPorter."It's Over" typifies the #operatic rock ballad. The song also appears on Orbison's 1964 album #MoreOfRoyOrbisonsGreatestHits and his 1989 posthumous album #ABlackAndWhiteNightLive from the 1988 #HBO television special. #Billboard said of the song that "the drama-ballad king scores again with pathos.

I liked the new HBO documentary mini-series "Telemarketers" a lot. It's a great example of how to center a story on exploited and/or marginalized people rather than the rich & powerful. It's funny, infuriating, and ultimately heartwarming. I did not expect it to be as compelling as it was.
So I wrote about it here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/telemarketers-88519512

🥥 I'm currently REALLY enjoying the MAX -- formerly #HBO -- series "#FullCircle."
Lots of my favorite actors in the cast and some that are new to me who steal the show.
It's a police-procedural dramedy with a twisty plot, plenty of complications, a whip-smart woman Postal Service Inspector, and the droll AF #JimGaffigan as a US Postal Inspector supervisor.
Everybody in this series has something to hide, and it's a roller coaster ride to see how the plot unfolds. 🥥
#Disney Plus & #Hulu are becoming too expensive! I have canceled the former & paused payments on the latter.

If you enjoyed the show #Minx on #HBO #MAX and were heartbroken when they cancelled it after one season you may not know this...
#Starz picked it up and season 2 was released last week!
Starz generally has some crazy good 3 month deals and a decent amount of originals you can binge during that time. I think our deal is like $3.99/month for 3 months. 😊
Just saw the banner on my #Google #tv that #HarleyQuinn season 4 just dropped.
I thought about that possibility before canceling* #HBO's #Max but hoped it wouldn't be back until after the #WGA and #SAGAFTRA strikes were both over.
It's the first new thing I *really* want to #stream that I have to put off.
Ah, well 🤷🏿♂️
*my personal decision, the strikers aren't asking for such action
#SaraAldrete, protagonista del documental de #HBO "La Narcosatánica", me recordó mucho a #Sheela, de #WildwildCountry, mano derecha de #Osho: ambas terminaron pagando por todo lo que hicieron y promovieron sus maestros/padrinos. Ojo: eso no las convierte en inocentes.
Finally got HBO's "The Last of Us" (2023) on Blu-ray 4K UHD and have seen the first three episodes already. I'm totally in love with this TV show so far, and as a big fan of the game, I just love the look of this show.
I also really liked this poster; it's pretty cool 😎.

Remember when getting the monthly HBO guide was a major life event? In related news, I think I watched Arthur 27 times in October 1982.
Just cancelled our various streaming services (#HBO, #Paramount, #Hulu and #Disney+) that need a clear message from customers that they need to negotiate in good faith with the writers. #writersstrike #noscabs
@Mary625 @Cryptika streaming services have been removing shows and movies for tax reasons. #hbo is particularly guilty here. So now shows like #infinitytrain can not be watched anywhere legally.
There are other shows and movies but infinity train is one I’m particularly salty about.

I think part of why #ThePacific doesn't hit as hard is the lack of the bookends on each episode that #BandOfBrothers had.
Specifically, the veteran spots (that still make me tear up) and the "broad strokes" text about where the war was heading at the time.
Barry season 3? Next fucking level!
Onto #ThePacific now. It doesn't hit as hard for me as #BandOfBrothers, but is still largely excellent.
I am at episode 9 of my "Band of Brothers" rewatch.
Always a rough episode with the reveal of the camp.
I was talking to a friend about the show Barry and she said we should watch it and talk about it together. I couldn’t remember how many episodes I saw of season one, so I just started watching it over again. I’m already halfway through season two.
If you like dark comedies, give it a try.
Kicked off my annual #BandOfBrothers rewatch. Still in my Top 3 all-time #HBO productions and 'Bastogne' is my absolute favorite episode because I enjoy pain.
I think it does a great job handling an ensemble cast and has always inspired me as a writer.
Dune: Part Two

@daringfireball #SiliconValley #HBO continues to prove to be more fact than fiction years later.
@AbandonedAmerica Try doing it from outside the US, where you pay for their f’in service through an internet provider that they don’t recognize. Thanks a lot #hbomax #hbo.
I've posted an update to the #HBO Max inaccessible CAPTCHA saga with a resolution. Essentially, support informs me that the CAPTCHA will be resolved. The flow has been updated so that, if you launch your original HBO Max app and launch the new experience through it, you should be able to bypass the sign in experience entirely.
I had to delete the app, restart my phone, and launch from the original app.
https://www.applevis.com/forum/ios-ipados/avoid-downloading-rebranded-hbo-max-app-until-inaccessible-captcha-removed-or
#accessibility #HBO
Since #HBO wouldn't let me watch the latest episode of #Succession due to an inaccessible CAPTCHA, I ended up watching several episodes of the mini-series "The Last Thing He Told Me," starring Jennifer Garner on #Apple TV. Mystery build with strong female characters.
I've created an Applevis forum entry with additional details about this travesty.
So based on the above, if you want to watch #HBO content on your iOS device and use Voiceover, do not download the #Max app yet. I can't say how long the transition will last and will let you use the old app.
They could have used many other strategies to verify you as a user (including email verification, phone verification, or no verification at all). They deliberately added an unnecessary barrier to the signin process for #blind people. It's utterly Ridiculous.
Well, y'all, #HBO's rebranding is going really nicely for #blind people. The iOS app presents a perfectly useless CAPTCHA dialog after entering your email and password. The only way that the dialog box can be made accessible is by using screen recognition. Then you get to identify an animal sound from three options and type in your choice. Once the audio plays, the entry screen disappears, meaning you can't enter the number.
It's like they didn't bother to test this with anyone
So #HBO are renaming their streaming service from "HBO Max" to "Max" and I want to know how much some brand agency for paid to basically tell them to drop their well known name for some generic overloaded word.
What is Pepsi decided to just rebrand as "Max"? How quickly would sales die.
https://www.wired.com/story/hbo-max-launch-bad-timing-wga-strike/
I hate to say this but there are many passionate conversations taking place on Twitter about #succession. I wish we could bring them all here. #succession #hbo
Do you also watch the intro for every #HBO #Succession episode all the way through or are you a monster?
Work just streamed the #documentary "38 At The Garden" as part of #AAPI month - something I completely ignored due to my own "sports documentary? ew" prejudices. We also had a panel that included the director Frank Chi.
Wow.
First, the doc was really about overcoming harmful #Asian stereotypes more than being about #basketball
And 2nd, seeing Asians just beam with delight at recalling what Jeremy Lin did for the community - yeah, I cried a lot.
Highly recommended. 💕
My favorite HBO Succession quotes this season….
“Ow. Don't criticize my jet interior. It hurts.”
“Three-point PR plan just off the top of my head. Point one. Might be hard for you, but stop sending people your blood.”
“Look. I think you're a corporate legend. What you did in the '90s with cable? Huge.”
I occasionally watch Bill Maher (ironically more on Youtube than HBO), & I discovered this interview of Elon Musk by Bill Maher which I found to be oddly fascinating.

Although I abhor his personality, Elon Musk has contributed towards the betterment of humanity due to the various companies he owns (whether through starting them like SpaceX or taking over like he did with Tesla).
Tesla helped popularize electric vehicles, while SpaceX is popularizing reusable rockets (the latter is helping reduce the cost of space flight too).
Bill Maher surprisingly did not push back against Elon Musk’s false claims about Twitter promoting free speech on the microblogging site, as Musk has repeatedly censored links to rival services like Mastodon & Substack, as well as banned users for promoting rival services too.
Overall, it was a decent interview, & whether you like or loathe Elon Musk (or Bill Maher), watching this episode was very informative.

Is #Succession just a show about obnoxious, wealthy siblings vying for power, or is it a mirror reflecting our own desires for money and success? 🤔
A new book argues that the “prestige tv” combines real and fake to allows viewers to condemn the rich characters while secretly identifying with them.

"...The recent takeovers of #CNN and #HBO have prompted similar questions about why they were targeted for purchase, and the changes being made there. None of these moves makes very much sense if you’re looking backwards...
