HBO’s ‘Mad Men’ mistake is pretty nauseating (and funny)

Here’s A BUNCH OF TV News

Mad Men arrived on HBO Max in 4k yesterday, and fans immediately spotted some errors — one pretty hilarious. First, the episodes were listed out of order and mislabeled. Which, not great. But then in season 1, episode 7, which should be titled “The Hobo Code” (but somehow was mislabeled “Red in the Face” and in the 6th episode spot), Roger Sterling returns to the office after a drunken lunch and vomits oysters in front of some potential clients. In the version on HBO Max, crew members operating a vomit machine are all visible in the shot.

Reportedly, this is Lionsgate’s fault; HBO is claiming they delivered the incorrect 4k files and are working on fixing the error. (Of course, maybe someone at HBO should have checked the files before uploading them, but, you know.)

People were really excited to go back to Hawkins.

AT&T is the latest company to bend the knee.

If you’re a Samsung TV owner and have Samsung TV Plus, you’ll be able to stream Fallout for free, even without a Prime Video subscription.

This Knives Out/Sesame Street crossover only reinforces the FACT that a Knives Out movie with Daniel Craig and all Muppets is the genius idea that Rian Johnson needs to jump on.

Congratulations, Maxx Morando and Miley Cyrus!
