    Dear @hbomax and @NOWTV - why can't I download The Pitt onto my iPad to watch on a flight tomorrow? Is it a glitch with the new platform on Now TV, is it a problem with this series or is this simply unavailable for download for Now TV Subscribers?

    I've been a fan of this dude since he was Prince Puma, and had been enjoying his work in AEW, but I have seen first-hand how badly MS can affect someone, and have helped raise money for MS charities. @TonyKhan I hope you know I'm turning off @hbomax whenever he's on.

    How to save Paramount and Warner Brothers? Rebrand #DavidEllison Replace @paramountplus and @hbomax with simply HBO which stands for... Home Box Office. HBO Netflix YouTube This should be the big 3. Studios have become silos and force people to take sides. YouTube and Netflix, even Amazon, are not studios, they are brands. The names have become the product. Netflix is used for streaming like Kleenex is used for tissues. HBO could easily be the "generic" rebrand people reach for. Already known for high-quality TV, it's simple and self explanatory without having to ask, what does Paramount own again? What does Warner Brothers own? Plus and Max descriptions are 20th century marketing. Lose them or lose the business. IMHO 😎

    @hbomax it sucks that I can only stream the @AEW ppvs on one device at a time. I work nights so it'd be nice to watch from work while my husband watches at home... 😒😒😒

    @hbomaxhelp @AEWonTV @StreamOnMax There was no make good and watching the show live was impossible. Almost as impossible as getting to talk to a real human instead of the chat bot on your help page.

    @hbomaxhelp @JdotChilds The sound during the commercials is just awful. Streaming HBO Max March Madness games. Please change the commercial, it has a very annoying sound.

    @EE @tntsports @hbomax I currently have my TNT sports subscription through EE but when I use my discovery + login on the HBOMax app it says I do not have any subscriptions. How do I get this resolved?

    Hey @hbomaxhelp Subscribed to HBO Max to watch live March Madness and all I get is buffering. This is just the first four. Can't wait until I can't watch tomorrow when there are so many games streaming. Maybe fix this Take March Madness from me and I'll not forgive or forget.

    @ethankoo22 @hbomax understandable, but since it looks like her condition is deteriorating it could potentially affect her ability to be an attending. a 10 sec absence seizure when you have someone's life in your hands is a huge problem.

    @hbomax the only thing your Harry Potter documentary should cover is how you didn’t have a budget for light bulbs. You have 6 months. Lighten the movie. It’s so dark the trailer looks awful. It’s giving everyone too dark game of thrones feeling. Shoot the show so we can see it.

    @hbomax @DCOfficial We realy hope you fix this mess! We dont want the DCU hal jordan to be a brown old cop instead of a cool green lantern suits up some costume like the new 52... What ever is the idea, do it right! Not like this old ugly stuff !

    @hbomax Can yall fix the glitch with your app? It’ll play an ad and start it at an earlier part of the movie. Then you’ll have to fast forward it just to get to the ad you were originally at and have to watch it again. Been this way for months.
