    @hbomax Worst crap ever.

  • mikefritts mike fritts (@mikefritts) reported

    @HBODocs @HBO @hbomax 30 yrs ago I was at a cabin with a grainy black n white tv with no sound. Didn't know I was watching SuperDave. It looked like a ho-hum show. Then the massive crash happens and I freaked out! He got me good! I'm still smiling

  • 52degreesN ☃️❄️Jane Frost❄️☃️ (@52degreesN) reported

    @ellmemore @MC_Brussels @hbomax Jfc always straight to the gutter with you guys. Male socialisation, Bro. Can’t fix that with hormones and surgery.

  • sbestkid sandy blumenfeld (@sbestkid) reported

  • 518BryceGaming Bryce (@518BryceGaming) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp having trouble with HBO Max on my Android TV. It opens but only shows a black screen, no sound.

  • patseidon パトリック (@patseidon) reported

    @mannybo @hbomax @ATT I called and messaged customer support and they didn’t help me out 🥲🥲

  • FpsDeclan Declan_FPS (@FpsDeclan) reported

    @hbomax One of the worst holiday movies I’ve seen, ever.

  • ghostgardeners Ghost (@ghostgardeners) reported

    @Deezerella @HBOMaxHelp The worst part is they keep acting like everything is fine and working perfectly. LOL this is some bs

  • Nestchick1 Nestchick (@Nestchick1) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Not my error, but one that I was on the receiving end of. When the internet was fairly new, I got an email supposed to be the proof of coverage for my car insurance, They sent me 18 pages of porn.

  • RichardMacDou16 **** Mac (vaxxed!) - (he/him) (@RichardMacDou16) reported

    @hbomax Honestly, the show was terrible in its original form (and I disliked it then), but it was so "new and different" that it got a pass. That actress who plays Charlotte has had major face work done and it looks horrible. Don't think I'll be watching this train-wreck.

  • gsiener Graham S (@gsiener) reported

    @arainert @hbomax Brutal. Not a problem on my Samsung. But getting airplay to work requires a lot of “turn it off and turn it on again” 🙄

  • ellmemore dyatlov passing privilege (@ellmemore) reported

    @W05Frances @MC_Brussels @hbomax its awful to suggest a rich person is rich? what a puritanical mindset. right Davy?

  • SportsCardGuy17 SportsCardGuy (@SportsCardGuy17) reported

    @hbomax This was one of the worst things I’ve ever tried to watch.

  • wdrwmn13 Kelly Hammond 🎭🎙🎶🧞‍♂️🦄⚾️🧜🏻‍♀️⚡️🤘🏻🌈 (@wdrwmn13) reported from Houston, Texas

    Hey @hbomax can you look into a issue on @Roku TVs where the app won’t play episodes?! It’s really frustrating when I’m trying to watch something on the app I can get the absolute I select the episode of the TV show that I wanna watch and then it just recycles back to the menu

  • olaideTHE4 Enjoyment SME (@olaideTHE4) reported

    Do y’all not see our cries for help?! @hbomax Fix this ****. Please!

  • BViper24 Brian Bird (Rams 8-4) (Lakers 15-13) (@BViper24) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp HBO Max doesn't work on my Hisense TV I unplugged the TV uninstall and reinstall the App and still nothing All I get is a Black Screen

  • OBrienKevinS 𝓒𝓪𝓻𝓹𝓮 𝓓𝓲𝓮𝓶- Make your lives extraordinary (@OBrienKevinS) reported

    @JolyonWhats @hbomax Meh. I don't know anything about that. I think Mel Gibson is one of the worst people, but I like his movies. Tom Cruise believes in Scientology (Lol), but I like his movies. See where I'm going with this...people can be "arseholes" but you can still appreciate their work.

    @AndJustLikeThat @hbomax Wish we could all block the writers of this terrible reboot

  • stonecoldkosa00 . (@stonecoldkosa00) reported

    @BViper24 @HBOMaxHelp same we need fix pls.. app is working on mobile but not on my tv @HBOMaxHelp

  • Shanghalla Shanghalla (@Shanghalla) reported

    Speaking as a Legion of Super-Heroes fan since 1976, I foresee nothing but cringe from this upcoming @hbomax “adult” cartoon spearheaded by @BRIANMBENDIS. It’s the wrong concept by the wrong person using the worst versions of the characters. @Discovery is getting a bill of goods.

  • OyVeidt OyVeidt (@OyVeidt) reported

    @hbomax Fix your broken app

  • patseidon パトリック (@patseidon) reported

    I tried to use my @hbomax subscription because I have an @ATT account, but customer service sucks and won’t help me with my account 10/10 would not recommend 🥲

  • ghostgardeners Ghost (@ghostgardeners) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp why is the app broken and not working on Android TV's?

  • futuregrandpa aaron (@futuregrandpa) reported

    @Travonne @hbomax Damn that’s definitely a glitch because I can fast forward and rewind on mine.

  • ARC818 Andrew (@ARC818) reported

    Anyone considering buying a LG TV (@LGUS), from personal experience do not get it. Has been one of the worst TV’s I’ve owned. Apps like @hbomax and @paramountplus always stop and buffer or the app crashes. Had to use my Roku with it which defeats the purpose of owning a Smart TV.

  • DavyGoneWild David Paul (@DavyGoneWild) reported

    @ellmemore @KatKarena @hbomax There would be no significant shortage of viewers if she were invited, but I’m sure she amicably agreed to step aside to avoid sullying the thing with the inevitable backlash that would ensue if she were to have the audacity to be present at a celebration of her own work.

  • RickSinkoe RagnaRick (@RickSinkoe) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp It was happening on the load screen.. I couldn’t even get to the account login.. I finally had to uninstall and reinstall on all my devices and it seems to be working ok now.. Thanks for the reply...

  • ifawomandidit Ifawomandidit (@ifawomandidit) reported

    @RichardMacDou16 @hbomax Not watching because someone got face work? Weird.
