Streaming platforms contract productions for a certain period of time to promote their on-demand broadcasting. When these licenses for series and films are not renewed, it is time to remove them from the catalogue; it is a constant practice that, in addition, is complemented by the arrival of other new productions.
This list of four titles contains the best productions that are about to leave the HBO Max platform. You still have time to see them!
