HBO Streaming 500 Hours of FREE Programming
HBO is making a ton of content completely free to stream as a nice gesture as people look for a diversion during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The WarnerMedia-owned premium cable channel is making almost 500 hours of programming available to stream for free (without ads) for a limited time on HBO Now and HBO Go services without a subscription, starting this Friday, April 3.
The list of free programming includes every episode of nine HBO series: “The Sopranos”, “Veep”, “Succession”, “Six Feet Under”, “The Wire”, “Ballers”, “Barry”, “Silicon Valley” and “True Blood”.
We are absolutely obsessed with Succession, which is easily our favorite new HBO series. Silicon Valley is a hilarious and very well-written comedy series starring T.J. Miller, Thomas Middleditch, and Komil Nanjiani that is easily binge-able with it’s 30-minute episodes.
Six Feet Under is an incredible and extremely underrated comedy drama series which ran from 2001-2005 starring Peter Krause and Michael C. Hall (Dexter).
Also streaming for free are 20 Warner Bros. movies in HBO’s current catalog including “Pokémon Detective Pikachu,” “The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part” and “Crazy, Stupid, Love”; and 10 HBO documentaries and docuseries including “McMillion$” and “The Case Against Adnan Syed.”
Notably, however, HBO megahit “Game of Thrones” is absent from the free-streaming fiesta, as are recent hits including “Westworld ,” “Big Little Lies,” “Euphoria” and “Chernobyl .”
All of the programming will be available to stream without a subscription starting April 3 by downloading the HBO Now or HBO Go apps (or by visiting hbonow.com or hbogo.com), but only in the United States. The content will also be made available for free via participating U.S. distribution partners’ platforms in the next several days, according to HBO.

Quibi is here, and it is a bright spot in these uncertain times. Many of us are stuck at home practicing social distancing and we need something new, not just the same old same old from the usual streaming services. Quibi has answered the call!! A brand-new streaming service with a unique format, Quibi offers “quick bites” which is where the name comes from, which basically stands for scripted shows playing out in a shortened chapter format. They are currently offering a free 90 day trial, just click the below link to get started.
WHAT IS QUIBI?
Quibi is a streaming service for short-form entertainment, founded by Jeffrey Katzenberg, who was the chairman of Disney during its animation renaissance in the 1990s, and Meg Whitman, also a former Disney exec, who has also been in charge of DreamWorks, Procter & Gamble, Hasbro, eBay, and Hewlett Packard. It markets itself as a new form of content consumption, creating "snackable" series and films each told via multiple short chapters. It's not available yet, but has recently been making headlines for attracting big names in Hollywood, from Jason Blum, Steven Soderbergh, Chrissy Teigen, and a bunch more people, to produce and star in these quick hits.
Quibi has two payment tiers: $4.99 with short ads, and $7.99 without them. This makes Quibi a big competitor of Apple TV+, also priced at $4.99 per month, and the likes of Netflix or Disney+, whose cheapest tiers are still not as cheap as $5.
Now Quibi just launched on April 6th but already has a tremendous library, making it a little difficult to navigate and find exactly what it is you want to watch - but those troubles are over! Introducing Just Watch, the extremely user-friendly streaming search engine that helps you find exactly what it is you’re looking for in a matter of seconds (as long as you’re looking for movies or shows, of course).

Movies Delayed By Coronavirus
As most of you have likely already noticed, a number of theatrical releases have been postponed or shelved for an unknown period of time due to the risk of The Coronavirus (COVID-19) and a push for social distancing. Check out the full list below and fingers crossed the film industry makes it through this scary time unscathed. We'll update it as more delays are announced.
No Time to Die (James Bond)
Daniel Craig's final outing as 007, directed by Cary Fukunaga and co-written by Phoebe Waller-Bridge, was the first major movie to delay release. No Time to Die had already lost its original director and changed its release date twice, but producers feared the closure of many theaters around the globe due to coronavirus would harm box office takings in lucrative international markets. The delay was announced March 4, and a week later, after the World Health Organisation declared a pandemic, other blockbusters began to follow suit.
Original release date: April 2020
New release date: Nov. 12, 2020 (UK) / Nov. 25, 2020 (US)
The Matrix 4
Production on The Matrix 4, which began in February, has been halted, according to a Variety report. It's not clear when shooting will restart or if the film's 2021 release date will be impacted.
Original release date: May 21, 2021
New release date: Unspecified
Peter Rabbit 2: The Runaway
Kid-friendly sequel Peter Rabbit 2 will now hop into theaters in August.
Original release date: March 2020
New release date: Aug. 7, 2020
A Quiet Place: Part II
John Krasinski directs Emily Blunt and Cillian Murphy in A Quiet Place 2, a post-apocalyptic tale of a world in which noise equals death. The near-silent sequel was due to open on March 20, but with just over a week to go Paramount announced that it's postponing the release to an unspecified date later in the year. Seeing the chilling first movie in a packed theater was an important part of the experience, partly because of the tension of trying to eat your snacks very, very quietly.
Original release date: March 2020
New release date: Unspecified date in 2020
F9 (Fast and the Furious)
On the same day A Quiet Place 2 was postponed, producers of the ninth Fast and Furious movie did the same. Starring Vin Diesel, John Cena and Charlize Theron, F9 was due to open in May but has been pushed back an entire year to April 2021 -- which had previously been earmarked for the next film in the Fast Saga. There's no word yet on when the tenth and final film will be released.
Original release date: May 2020
New release date: April 2, 2021
Mulan (and other Disney live action films)
Disney's live action Mulan reboot was slated for March 27, but Disney pulled the film on March 12, just a few hours after similar announcements for A Quiet Place 2 and F9. The postponement came late enough that some had already seen the film at earlier preview screenings, calling the new Mulan "majestic" and "thrilling."
The next day, Walt Disney Studios said it was pausing production on other live action films. The company didn't specify which movies were impacted, but Variety reported they include The Last Duel, The Little Mermaid, Shang-Chi and The Legend of the Ten Rings, Home Alone, Nightmare Alley, Peter Pan & Wendy and Shrunk.
Original release date: March 2020
New release date: Unspecified
The New Mutants (X-Men)
Easily one of the most troubled movies ever to limp into production, X-Men spin-off The New Mutants has now been postponed indefinitely. It was originally slated to be released in 2018 and had already been moved twice when Disney's acquisition of Fox led to a third postponement. That makes this the fourth postponement for the teen-centric comic book chiller starring Anya Taylor-Joy and Maisie Williams.
Original release date: April 2020
New release date: Unspecified
Antlers
When Disney postponed Mulan and New Mutants, it also shelved horror film Antlers. Produced by Guillermo del Toro, the film was originally supposed to open April 17.
Original release date: April 2020
New release date: Unspecified
SXSW and Tribeca
The SXSW conference won't take place in March, devastating filmmakers who hoped to reach press and distributors there. Films that were scheduled to premiere at the annual film, music and tech event included The 24th, a scathing historical drama from the Oscar-winning co-writer of BlacKkKlansman, Kevin Willmott.
With New York's Tribeca festival also canceled, other film festivals such as Cannes may be in doubt. As with all major events undone by coronavirus, cancellation will hit local businesses and employees.
Netflix
Netflix will suspend all scripted TV and film production for two weeks in the US and Canada starting March 16. That affects shows like Stranger Things, which was filming its fourth season. Productions filming in other locations are "being assessed on a case by case basis," according to Deadline.
Apple originals
Apple has reportedly halted filming content for its Apple TV Plus service, which includes The Morning Show, Foundation, See and For All Mankind. The coronavirus situation is still unfolding across the globe. As Disneyland closes and more major gatherings are canceled, a question mark is cast even over giant events like this summer's Olympics. And more movies will no doubt be delayed.
It remains to be seen if Marvel's Black Widow, scheduled for May 1, or Wonder Woman 1984, set for June 5, may be in question.

It remains to be seen if Marvel's Black Widow, scheduled for May 1, or Wonder Woman 1984, set for June 5, may be in question.
Meanwhile the pandemic is affecting not just new releases but also things that haven't even been made yet. TV shows Riverdale, The Morning Show and Disney's Falcon and Winter Soldier have delayed production of forthcoming seasons, while Mission: Impossible 7 was unable to shoot in virus-hit Venice. And Baz Luhrmann's biopic of Elvis Presley was disrupted when Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson revealed they'd tested positive for COVID-19.
Movie theaters
Regal Cinemas will close all theater locations starting March 17, until further notice. Meanwhile, AMC said it would limit the number of people in its theaters at one time to 50, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Series Premiere Wednesday, April 15th, 2020 (FX & FX on Hulu)
“A look into the daily (or rather, nightly) lives of three vampires, who’ve lived together for over 100 years, on Staten Island.”
From creator Jemaine Clement (Flight of the Conchords), What We Do in the Shadows is a comedy series that takes a look into the daily (or rather, nightly) lives of three vampires, who've lived together for over 100 years, on Staten Island. The series is unique and extremely over the top, so I think it’s safe to say it really is not for everyone - but if you can appreciate dry humor and enjoyed the movie version you will get a kick out of this vampire “sitcom”. I can’t get enough of the ridiculous cameo’s as you can see from Dave Bautista in the above photo. Check out the official trailer below!!
Ted Takes Fun Facts, What We Do in the Shadows:
The theme song "You're Dead" was originally released in 1966. The artist who released it is Norma Tanega as part of her album entitled "Walkin' My Cat Named Dog". Title track of album hit #22 on the charts.
This is a TV spinoff of the 2014 film of the same name, which was a remake of the 2004 short film of the same name. The show is set in the same universe as the film.
