There’s plenty going coming to both HBO and Max in May 2024, from reality shows to stand-up specials and original series. Hacks returns for its third season, and another spin-off of Pretty Little Liars will be doing the rounds too. Some international originals and acquisitions complete the list.
As ever, we’re here to help you sort through the filler and find the stuff worth devoting an evening — or even a weekend — to. Our streaming guide will pluck out the highlights and hidden gems for you, and it’ll be regularly updated to keep track of the latest licensed and original content dropping on the platforms, so check back regularly.
Highlight of the Month
Pretty Little Liars: Summer School | May 9
It’s hard not to consider any show with Pretty Little Liars in the title as anything other than a highlight when it crops up in a streaming slate. The property has a great deal of curb appeal after its monumentally successful original run. Summer School, which is technically Season 2 of Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin, picks up after the end of the first season.
The first season was somehow not a sequel or a reboot but also kind of both in weird ways, and it was popular enough to warrant a follow-up, albeit one with some key changes.
