What’s New on Max This January 2024

Max announces programming coming to the platform this January, including the debut of the HBO Original drama series, TRUE DETECTIVE: NIGHT COUNTRY (1/14). When the long winter night falls in Ennis, Alaska, the eight men who operate the Tsalal Arctic Research Station vanish without a trace. To solve the case, Detectives Liz Danvers (Jodie Foster) and Evangeline Navarro (Kali Reis) will have to confront the darkness they carry in themselves and dig into the haunted truths that lie buried under the eternal ice. Issa López serves as showrunner and writer and directs all episodes.

Max Original series ON THE ROAM (1/18) is an eight-part cinematic documentary series following Jason Momoa as he travels the country chasing art, adventure, and friendship through the lens of craftsmanship. The eight-episode series will debut two episodes weekly leading up to the season finale on February 8.

The season three debut of Max Original series SORT OF (1/18), the series’ final season, finds Sabi (Bilal Baig) coming to terms with feelings of grief and an unexpected sense of freedom following the death of their father. Without the constraints of living up to dad’s expectations, they confront big questions about their identity, prompting some massive life choices. With the entire ensemble grappling with aftermaths this season, a rebirth comes in a sort of messy, sort of hopeful, sort of “Sort Of” way.

HBO Original REAL TIME WITH BILL MAHER (1/19) returns for its 22nd season, where Maher will offer his unique perspective on contemporary issues. The show features an opening monologue, one-on-one interviews with notable guests, roundtable discussions with panelists, and its signature “New Rules.”

Season seven of Adult Swim’s animated hit series RICK AND MORTY (1/22) follows a sociopathic genius scientist who drags his inherently timid grandson on insanely dangerous adventures across the universe. “Rick and Morty” has become a multi-platform sensation not just on television, but across digital, gaming, livestreaming, retail, and fan experiences. The Adult Swim series has earned two Emmys® for “Outstanding Animated Program” and is currently nominated for a third.

HBO Original documentary GOING TO MARS: THE NIKKI GIOVANNI PROJECT (1/8) travels through time and space to reveal the enduring influence of Nikki Giovanni, one of America’s greatest living poets and social commentators. Giovanni reckons with the inevitable passing of time through intimate vérité, striking archival footage, and visually innovative treatments of her poetry, revealing the lasting impact of Giovanni’s work on American culture. The critically acclaimed film premiered at the Sundance Film Festival where it won the Grand Jury Prize for Best U.S. Documentary and was an official selection in the Spotlight section of the 61st New York Film Festival. The film was recently nominated for three Cinema Eye Honors Awards including Outstanding Nonfiction Feature, two International Documentary Association Awards, including Best Feature Documentary, and a Film Independent Spirit Awards nomination for Best Documentary.
