HBO Max comes onto the streaming scene

HBO Max is here. Launched on May 27, during a global pandemic no less, it blends HBO’s original programming with a huge catalog of movies and TV shows.

Priced at $14.99 with a larger streaming library than HBO, HBO Max features all of the original shows we’ve come to love, like “Westworld” and “Game of Thrones,” plus new originals, like “Love Life,” a comedy show starring Anna Kendrick, with more to come.

And, if you’re upset “Friends” is no longer on Netflix, you can find it on HBO Max. (There’s also a “Friends” reunion special that starts filming in August 2020.)
