  • _Alexander_R__ Alexander (@_Alexander_R__) reported

    @tedmargo @WestworldHBO @hbomax Sounds more like a you problem.

  • HoMoProductions HOward MOody (@HoMoProductions) reported

    @WestworldHBO @hbomax Season 3 was unwatchable. It was so awful

  • chnacat chnacat (@chnacat) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp there is nothing to “sort out”. the issue is your app. google it, there are many many posts about how bad it is on certain devices. on apple tv, it is absolutely unusable. no amount of troubleshooting that you do with me is going to make it better.

  • diamonst8 Diamonst8 (@diamonst8) reported

    @WestworldHBO @hbomax I’m absolutely sick of the movies these days. Worst ever. I will never watch this crap!!

  • RobDusk Rob (@RobDusk) reported

    @WestworldHBO @hbomax They could've solved the problem so easily by TURNING OFF THE ******* ROBOTS REMOTELY! But noo...

  • TheGamerAliyah Aliyah_The_Gamer (@TheGamerAliyah) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp my tv episodes won’t start from the beginning on their own it’s really inconvenient when you’re binge watching something or trying to fall asleep to something I looked the problem up and it’s being a problem for over a month. update on that coming soon ?

  • bramey11 Britt Ramey🌻✨ (@bramey11) reported

    @hbomax my heart is broken. I have to see what happens in time travelers wife. Renew pretty please. 6 episodes is not enough 😭

  • ebvet Evan Blonder (@ebvet) reported

    @WestworldHBO @hbomax This is the worst series on television and it amazes me it gets renewed

  • chnacat chnacat (@chnacat) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp also, i work in IT, i have already taken all the steps to try to fix. nothing has worked, and the fact that every other app is working beautifully speaks to the fact that the issue is your app, which as previously stated, is hot garbage.

  • AmeliaBanc Amelia 🇺🇦 (@AmeliaBanc) reported

    @tedmargo @WestworldHBO @hbomax Ted! She was abused and spoke out about it in large part to help the other people the same dude abused. I’m sorry that ruined a sci fi show based around mistreated robots becoming sentient and doing something about it… in retrospect prob not the show for you.

  • RoDale_Weyandt RoDale Weyandt (@RoDale_Weyandt) reported

    @WestworldHBO @hbomax Compared to what this film? Your beliefs? What the real world is or what it could be. If you know/have any kind of advice that you could possibly share to help me or anyone else that could come across this & not fully comprehend your statement for whatever possible reasons.

  • ARidderbush aaron ridderbush (@ARidderbush) reported

    @WestworldHBO @hbomax No thanks, season 3 was short and awful

  • BToes11 BobbyTwoToes11 (@BToes11) reported

    @Burrows2018 @WestworldHBO @hbomax I’ll help you out….they are gonna say reboot and then reinstall the app…every….time 🙄

  • raynesdad1120 Roger Arevalo (@raynesdad1120) reported

    @WestworldHBO @hbomax I will never understand people's negativity in this world. It seems that people just can't help themselves but to go out of their day to comment negative things. Ok you don't like it. So just move on. Who do yall think yall are, Roger and Ebert?

  • andokal andokal (@andokal) reported

    @edimoreno @hbomax @Roku Same problem with Ep 1, just now, tried continuing the episode about 4 times, same result.

  • dorianbIackbeak jess 💛 (@dorianbIackbeak) reported

    ALSO DOES ANYONE ELSE’S @hbomax NOT HAVE THE CAPTIONS CENTERED ON THEIR TV HOW DO I FIX THIS 😭😭😭

  • chnacat chnacat (@chnacat) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp i have no plans to DM you. you don’t need my account information. it has absolutely nothing to do with the issue.

  • jimtalks jimtalks (@jimtalks) reported from Kenner, Louisiana

    Well @hbomax ‘s #TheOutsider is a terrible interpretation of the book. I’m 1/2 way through and struggling to get it finished….. ugh.

  • SMonroe_Books Steve Monroe (@SMonroe_Books) reported

    @WestworldHBO @hbomax Worst show on tv. Hubby and wife writers lost their way. Awful

  • tony_vargas45 Tony (@tony_vargas45) reported

    @WestworldHBO @hbomax Man, the writing is terrible. This show has jumped the shark

  • KingLister610 Troy Snow (@KingLister610) reported

    Hear me out #Batman fans. Zoe Kravitz Selina Kyle 'Catwoman' movie or HBO Max Series where she has to face Red Claw. (Never been done in live action) original character made up for #BatmanTheAnimatedSeries @mattreevesLA @Batman @hbomax She'd work for #TheBatman universe

  • Porchsitter61 🇺🇲🇺🇦Slow&Easy 🇺🇲🇺🇦 (@Porchsitter61) reported

    @WestworldHBO @hbomax Actually I question the quality of the writing of that last season.

  • AmeliaBanc Amelia 🇺🇦 (@AmeliaBanc) reported

    @tedmargo @WestworldHBO @hbomax Yeah if you take issue with her speaking out about what happened to her than you are the problem Teddy.

  • DlCKIEBOY little ***** *** (@DlCKIEBOY) reported

    @hbomax fix your app

  • 87sparky11 87sparky (@87sparky11) reported

    @brockkomarov @WestworldHBO @hbomax It worst then that

  • Capitalics Capitalics (@Capitalics) reported

    @WestworldHBO @hbomax Season 1 was great. I wish I'd stopped watching after that, despite the quality of the acting and directing.

  • Kaufm020 Dan Kaufman (@Kaufm020) reported

    @MrThumbTwiddle @WestworldHBO @hbomax Same for me. I’m surprised there even is a Season 4, because who is asking for this after the terrible Season 3. I’ll give it a try, maybe.

  • SMonroe_Books Steve Monroe (@SMonroe_Books) reported

    @jeisensc @WestworldHBO @hbomax Actually watch it and u won’t be so excited. Awful

  • FatElvis04 Justin Yarbrough 🌻 (@FatElvis04) reported

    Also glad to see the @hbomax app is less awful with VoiceOver than it was the last time I'd tried to use it a few months ago.
