HBO’s Watchmen is a full-fledged sequel to Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons’ influential 1986 graphic novel. HBO’s series is set about 30 years after the original comic series and directly builds off of the events of that story.

The show is set in an alternate history where masked vigilantes are treated as outlaws, and these superheroes rely on technology, weapons, and their own skills to get the job done. The drama series is more relevant than ever today due to its examination of race and the criminal justice system.

The show debuted last fall, and while it became extremely popular with fans, creator Damon Lindelof recently told USA Today that there won’t be a second season.

3 great Max crime dramas you should watch in October 2024

Two people stand in the cold in The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo.

Every time you open the Max app, you may find that the streaming service is not actually recommending the things you want to watch to you. Few streaming services have a deeper library of great titles, but Max can seem determined to hide away many of its best movies.

If you're looking for a great crime drama to watch on the service, then we'd recommend you take a look at this list instead of spending minutes or even hours trying to find one to watch in the streaming app itself. Hopefully, this list will give you a great movie to watch and save you some valuable time.

Now that House of the Dragon is over, it can be tough to justify that Max subscription. If you weren't watching the Game of Thrones prequel, you may have subscribed for any number of other reasons. Regardless of exactly why you decided to pay for the streamer, though, it can be hard to feel like you're getting your money's worth out of it.

What you may not know, though, is that Max is absolutely stuffed with great movies, many of which are actually hard to find from the home screen. If you're looking for a movie to while away Labor Day weekend with, then we've got you covered with three titles that perfectly fit the bill.
