Does a streamed movie or series have a material impact on a T quarter?

Not so much on a single quarter, but it's a good indication of how amazing HBO max can be. 
I'm too lazy to pull up any figures, but if you check I'm absolutely certain that there has been a correlation between game of thrones and subscriber growth for HBO. It's not unusual at all for people to sign up to a service because there is something they absolutely want to see and it's only available there. (legally)

I personally think a lot of people are underestimating the effect HBO max can have over the long term. HBO has been the king of quality for a long time.

Just a fun fact:
T, the whole T, currently has a similar market cap to Netflix.

Since we are slow I'll spam the thread some more. 

I defended T for a few years.  I am tired of their failure to execute.  The Direct TV acquisition and capital dump was lunacy.  I don't blame anyone for owning T, and I even own a few shares, but they better get it right this time.  T is about one mistake away from visiting $22 with all the debt.  An extended down market would accomplish it too.  I need compensated for that risk.  $27 is about the most I would pay for T anytime soon.  If it never happens I'm OK with that too.
