I got Peacock for free from Xfinity. Has some classics I may need to watch. I was certianly amused to see that it had The Cook, The Thief, His Wife, and Her Lover on it... god help the poor schmuck who unknowingly stumbles into that while looking for reruns of The Office. They should promote it as "See Dumbledore BEFORE he became Headmaster at Hogwarts!" Or maybe for fans of cooking shows. That final meal is certainly something you don't see in most restaurants. |

HBOMax has Steel on it but not the Dark Knight trilogy. That made my day.

Even more hilarious to me: HBO Max doesn't even have its own Roku app.

Swamp Thing was awesome. Didn't deserve the treatment it got at all.

At least Swamp Thing had it's episodes aired in the correct order, didn't have it's time slot moved around and got every episode shown. Firefly had it far worse than Swamp Thing. Nevertheless, Swamp Thing did get the shaft. |

Not so fast. Everything that's shared between regular HBO and HBO Max can be accessed through Hulu. However, everything exclusive to HBO Max (Friends, Fresh Prince, original content, Harry Potter, LOTR, etc.) can only be accessed through the HBO Max app.
I can confirm this for a fact.

Firefly had it far worse than Swamp Thing. Nevertheless, Swamp Thing did get the shaft. Swamp Thing was cancelled after one day. It wasn't fucked with because the people running the service knew it wouldn't matter. Both shows were screwed equally by people who had already decided their fate, but in completely different ways because they aired in two separate TV climates. |

The amount of petulant children that come out the woodwork each time because the cord cutting options aren't all fully compatible on day 1 is a great source of amusement to me.

Yup, I stream through my Xbox so the whole Roku/Firestick controversy thankfully doesn't affect me. |
