Three of the greatest original series of the past decade are returning to HBO Max in April – only 1 week apart?! Silly HBO Max, shouldn’t you spread your big hits out? What am I referring to? Barry, Flight Attendant, and Made for Love, obviously!
If they’d added in Westworld we’d have full on combusted.
As usual, some Disney-distributed Fox titles will pop in. We’ll denote those in bold.
