What’s new on HBO and Max in November 2024

The selection of new movies coming to HBO and Max in November is so thin that you could be forgiven if you accidentally mistook it for the lineup heading to Disney+. Twenty-three films are going to Max on November 1, which is well below the number that usually heads to streamers each month. That total includes the perquisite Christmas movies, many of which are also streaming on Hulu this holiday season.

So for films, November’s a wash for Max. Thankfully, HBO’s original programming, including Dune: Prophecy, Like Water for Chocolate, and a few new documentaries, makes Max worthwhile. Sports lovers also have the option to stream some NHL and NBA games, as well as cycling and “endurance car racing.”

The best romance movies on Netflix right now
Dustin Milligan leans in for a kiss with Lacey Chabert in Hot Frosty.

Love is in the air at Netflix, but it might just be because the streamer is dropping some of its holiday rom-coms a few weeks early. One of the latest additions, Hot Frosty, has already become an unexpected hit and the No. 1 film on the list of the most popular movies on Netflix.

The other recent addition, The Lost City, is a rom-com in the vein of Romancing the Stone. Next month could be even more Christmas-centric than November, so enjoy the non-holiday romances while you can. These films and the rest of the best romance movies on Netflix can be found below.

Don’t let these 3 November 2024 hidden streaming movie gems fly under your radar

November is a curious month. Spooky season is over, but Christmas season hasn't started yet. It's the middle brother, often ignored entirely by people either holding on to the fall season or those who are more than ready to bring out the Santa hats. Sure, Thanksgiving is celebrated in the final week, but that's just one country in the world; everywhere else, poor November is just the in-between month.

However, it's still a full 30-day month, and what better way to wait for Christmas than by watching some movies as underrated as the month itself? From dark and seriously messed-up comedies to awkward coming-of-age dramedies, these underappreciated streaming gems will make for perfect viewing during this cold, yet not-so-snowy month. So grab a blanket and some popcorn, and get ready to watch some severely underrated movies.

3 PBS shows you should watch in November 2024

It's a strange month when PBS doesn't have any new British dramas to premiere, but the Public Broadcast Service does have lot of free shows to watch in November. That's the benefit and the promise of PBS, which is still proving its worth even in the age of streaming services.

Since we don't have any new British TV series to throw a spotlight on, the three PBS shows you should watch in November include a new documentary by Ken Burns, as well as a Wu-Tang clan concert like no other and a musical tribute to an all-time great composer.
