The AT&T-owned media company is looking to launch the still-unnamed WarnerMediasubscription VOD service at a price point of $16-$17 per month and is likely to bundle together HBO and Cinemax along with Warner Bros. TV shows and movies, according to a Wall Street Journal report citing anonymous sources.
That would make WarnerMedia’s SVOD service slightly higher than the standalone HBO Now ($14.99 monthly), and pricier than Netflix’s standard two-stream HD plan ($12.99), Showtime ($10.99) and Hulu’s VOD packages ($5.99 with ads; $11.99 without) — and more than double Disney Plus, slated for a Nov. 12 launch at an aggressive $6.99 per month price.
Reps for WarnerMedia and HBO didn’t respond to requests for comment.
Why would WarnerMedia want to go out with a “fat” SVOD bundle, particularly as it faces numerous lower-priced rivals? The challenge for WarnerMedia is to leverage HBO as the backbone of the new streaming service — without undercutting existing HBO pricing or contributing to cord-cutt

Amazon on Friday released the first footage from Undone, a “genre-bending” animated series starring Bob Odenkirk (Better Call Saul) and Rosa Salazar (Alita: Battle Angel).
Premiering in late 2019 (exact date TBA), Undone is centered on Alma Winograd-Diaz (Salazar), a young woman involved in “a near fatal accident” that “induces visions of her late-father, Jacob (Odenkirk),”

Sneaky Pete got cancelled today
And
This second season wasn't as good as the first.- in fact, except for a few eps, it went from hilarious to cringe/bad. They shifted the focus - not surprised by this cancellation. Premise went from being on the kids in the class to Dennis Remix. Remember that ep in Always Sunny when Dennis and Mac moved out to the burbs and they started going crazy being away from city life - it was like that but just Dennis and other characters immersed in.Back to Always Sunny for Dennis...
