HBO Max must be desperate...

why is this desperate? hbo has done this or is trying to do this with all their big shows; fresh prince of bel Air, friends, etc.
 
Who's going to watch this? Nobody is interested in the sexual escapades of 50 year old women.

Didnt the original author come out and say she regrets riding the cock carrosel and wishes she had kids?


Sex and the City writer Candace Bushnell, 60, admits she regrets choosing a career over having children as she is now 'truly alone'​

Just got HBO Max. Whats good on it?
out of their more recent additions, I've thoroughly enjoyed:

Raised by Wolves
30 Coins
The Third Day

Watchmen
was probably my favorite show of 2019

I started Doom Patrol last night and am enjoying it so far

then of course you have all the classic HBO hits like Curb Your Enthusiasm, Deadwood, Oz, The Wire, The Sopranos, The Leftovers, etc.

they got lots of great movies too

edit:
I'm watching Snakes on a Plane right on HBO Max right now tbh, no shame

Eh, always hated the show. Older women might want it but it will probably be vastly inferior to the original, so yea this is pretty desperate.

I remember when I was like 13 and we first got HBO. I turned this on late one night. I expected something... different. Let’s just saw I was pretty disappointed.

To answer your question OP, yes, I'll watch it. It'll be good, or it'll be bad, but I'll judge it when I do, not before.

regarding why they didn't reboot the cast with 30 year olds or whatever--the people watching this show are also grown up now so it's more relatable

Who in the hell would be having sex with any of these old bats?

i think you underestimate how easy it is for women to get laid
but of the 3 she's still attractive imo

I mean it really depends, right. If you mean is it possible for a 50 year old woman to find a person who will have sex with them, you’re not wrong. But is it easy for a 50 year old women to attract a person they actually want to have sex with I think you’d be mistaken.

That woman is by far the most attractive one from the original cast and even she would have no chance competing with marginally attractive women in their early 30s.
 
ATT been running on credit for 8 years since they tried over expanding, they will do anything to try and make a penny, anywhere, somewhere, under the table, in a jar of Ovaltine, in your sisters panty drawrer, just give them something, anything. They will waste money they don't have on exclusives in the millions for you to give them $5 so they can claim they are having record profits and revenue to try and full people that they are a company to invest in so they can get people to come to them and it hasn't worked, but HBO MAX is their last desperate attempt to try and remedy that.

Whats the general consensus on Picard? I got through a season and half of Discovery and I gave up.

It's a bit of a divisive one.

While STD: Chlamydia Discovery is universally panned, if you are a TNG superfan Picard will have some interest for you. It has some silly things like the Alien Samurai and some dumb plots, but it's also a sort of celebration and goobye for TNG.

Should I watch TNG before?

It's an awesome show dude.

Yes, go watch TNG.

180 episodes so that'll keep you entertained for a while.
I have seen episodes here and there but never say down to watch it. Is it on CBS AA?
TNG is pretty rough at the start IMO. I’m working my way through season 1 and some of the episodes are pretty boring. I hear it gets substantially better as it progresses so I’m sticking with it.
Good to know.

It took them a little to find their footing, specially because they didn't have a Large Ham anchoring the show so they depended a lot on writing and that took a little to get going.
