HBO Max will stop streaming 36 titles, including 20 originals

According to report, HBO Max would start removing approximately 36 titles from its service this week.

A spokesperson for HBO Max stated that the impending merger of the service with Discovery+, which is also owned by Warner Bros. Discovery, was the reason for the choice.

HBO Max released a statement saying, “As we work toward bringing our content catalogues together under one platform, we will be making changes to the content offering available on both HBO Max and discovery+.” “That will include the removal of some content from both platforms.”

By removing the titles from streaming, Warner Bros. Discovery might save money on residuals and cut costs by eliminating less popular shows. The titles will be removed at an unknown time and date, according to the announcement.

Although HBO Max has taken down a number of titles recently, including several Warner Bros. movies and HBO TV episodes like “Camping,” “Vinyl,” “Mrs. Fletcher,” and “Run,” the most recent news marks the service’s biggest-ever removal of titles. Additionally, 20 original HBO Max programmes will be removed off the platform, including the teen drama “Generation,” the animated anthology programme “Infinity Train,” and the reality dating show “12 Dates of Christmas,” which focuses on the holiday season. Whether they will be made accessible on DVD or through rental services is still unknown.

The full list of movies that will be removed, except an undefined “select group of ‘Sesame Street’ specials,” is provided below.
