    Every other show on @hbomax seems fine. For some reason it will play #HouseoftheDragon on a phone app but not a tv app. It just backs out. Another failed premiere night for HBOmax. 30 minutes of trying? It’s a 1 hr show and folks have work tomorrow. They’ll watch over lunch

    And, @HBOMaxHelp - I followed ALL the trouble-shooting for the FireTV (which is very well-written, step-by-step, I must say,) HOWEVER, it did NOT fix my issue. After the HBO previews and the quick static, the app crashes and it flips me back to the FireTV home.
