The TV Answer Man – Follow me on X.

HBO Max this week (June 29-July 5, 2025) plans to add 83 new TV shows and movies to its streaming service. Here are the three to watch, in my humble opinion.

Sinners (2025)
Release Date: Friday, July 4

Michael B. Jordan stars in dual roles as twins who return to their hometown in 1930s Mississippi to combat an evil force (vampires.) Directed by Ryan Coogler, Sinners (pictured above) has been the smash hit of 2025, generating nearly $300 million at the domestic box office. And the critics are still raving about Sinners, calling it an exciting and insightful thriller. Folks, I don’t have a subscription to HBO Max, but Amazon’s Prime Video offers a seven-day free trial and I’m signing up on the Fourth just to watch this film.

Dear Ms.: A Revolution In Print
Release Date: Wednesday, July 2
You may not be old enough to remember Ms. Magazine but the Gloria Steinem-founded publication was a sensation (as well as a subject of scorn) in 1971 when it debuted, urging young women to ditch their bras (and possibly their husbands) and declare their independence. This HBO documentary will chronicle the events and people that sparked its publication and movement and why it ultimately faded and arguably became more parody than powerful polemic.

The Big Lebowski (1998)
Release Date: Tuesday, July 1
The 1998 cult comedy from the Coen Bros. features an iconic Los Angeles slacker (Jeff Bridges) named ‘The Dude’ who accidentally becomes the focus of a murder investigation.  Only Joel and Ethan Coen could take this farfetched plot and turn it into a cultural mainstay and masterpiece that resonates with multiple generations. The flawless supporting cast includes John Goodman, Steve Buscemi, Philip Seymour Hoffman, David Huddleston, Julianne Moore, and John Turturro as Jesus, a bowler with a strange fetish for his ball.
