yes of fans.

The show in question is “The Leftovers,” a supernatural drama that debuted in 2014 and ran for three seasons until 2017. It has received high praise from both critics and audiences, with Rotten Tomatoes scores of 91 and 90, respectively. Fans have expressed their disappointment and frustration with the decision to remove such a beloved show from the platform.

While it’s not uncommon for streaming services to rotate content, especially licensed movies and TV shows, the removal of an original series like “The Leftovers” is a rare occurrence. Fans have taken to social media platforms like Reddit to voice their concerns and urge Max to reconsider its decision.

Despite the backlash, there is a glimmer of hope for fans. The removal date for “The Leftovers” has been pushed back to June 3, giving subscribers a few more months to enjoy the series. Max has not announced any plans to change course, so fans are encouraged to watch the show while they still can.

This is not the first time an HBO original has been removed from Max, and it likely won’t be the last. While the decision may not sit well with subscribers, it’s important to remember that content changes are a normal part of the streaming landscape. As always, stay tuned for updates on HBO Max news and announcements.
