    I’ve legitimately considered cancelling my HBO Max subscription because it tries to auto play Maher’s show after Last Week Tonight, and I’ve found no way to mark the show as something I never want on my TV.

    It’s triggering every time.

      It’s such a dumb recommendation. “I see you watched an unabashedly progressive video essay show, would you like some center-right trash? They’ve both been tagged as ‘politics’ and ‘talk show’, they’re practically the same thing!”

      All of the Last Week Tonight episodes run on YouTube, so if that’s your primary use of HBO/Max/Whatever, it’s an easy cancel.

        It’s not, I typically enjoy their programming. However, I only pay for one or two streaming services at any given time, yet I always watch any show I want, from any service, anyway (arrrrr) so 🤷🏻
