it's the CEO. all of these changes are his calls. he decided to get rid of 'HBO', but obviously that was insane

Discovery has been a clown show for years now, and Warner must have been an even bigger one to get bought by Discovery.

I know, you have a brand that is literally synonymous with movies for two entire generations of people.

Let's break it apart, let's change its name, let's spit it off as multiple products and then destroy half of them. Let's add a whole bunch of content and then remove it.

They're now synonymous with indecision, confusion, and whatever Hallmark movies they managed to have in their catalog these days.

Quality movies and shows, HBO was the place for that for decades. If you saw HBO and static, you knew you were in for something good.
