Everything New on Max in October 2023

Two big HBO and Max series are returning with new seasons in October. The pirate comedy show Our Flag Means Death returns, and so does The Gilded Age. Plus, the DC series Doom Patrol with more episodes from its fourth and final season. If you want new documentaries there’s one about the real-life case that inspired The Bling Ring, as well as a film about the life of Michael Chow, the man behind the famous chain of Chinese restaurants. (The film better include Steely Dan’s “Glamour Profession,” otherwise I’m sending Max a formal complaint.)

If you want something more in a horror vein for Halloween, there are library titles like Scream, Freddy vs. Jason, Species and 2003’s Texas Chainsaw Massacre. There’s also the streaming premiere of Meg 2: The Trench, which is kind of scary? Sort of? It’s probably intended to be a little scary in theory? October will also see the debut of Max’s new sports tier called Bleacher Report Sports, which will supposedly offer “300 live games each year” to the streaming service.

Here’s everything coming to Max in October 2023…
