Wondering what to watch this Thanksgiving weekend? Get a whole year of HBO Max for just $2.99 a year as a Hulu add-on. This is one of the top streaming deals we’ve seen so far.
Sign up to HBO Max today for just $2.99 a month, usually $9.99, when you add it to your Hulu plan.
Post-Thanksgiving, this is an ideal streaming deal to grab to settle down with friends or family and watch your favorite nature doc or science show. But don’t forget, this deal is only available if you add HBO Max to your existing Hulu subscription and will auto-renew at $9.99 a month after a year.
If you’re a David Attenborough fan, or nature documentaries are more your thing in general, you can find a whole back catalogue (spanning decades) of epic and sometimes hypnotic pieces of 21st-century filmmaking. Planet Earth from 2006, Planet Earth II from 2017 and Planet Earth III from 2023 are must-watches. Frozen Planet, Serengeti, Life and the Mating Game are other favorites that will stun you with their exceptional visuals and storytelling.
We recommend you set a reminder in your calendar to turn off auto-renew, and perhaps grab another deal in November 2026! A deal that (will probably) keep on giving. You have a couple of days to snatch up this deal before it expires on December 1.
Key features: Expedition Unknown, Unearthed, Mysteries of the Abandoned, Lost Cities of the Bible, Lost Empire of Persia, Blue Planet II, Planet Earth (I, II, & III), Frozen Planet (I & II), Seven Worlds, One Planet, Mythbusters, Chernobyl: Secrets, Lies and the Untold Stories.
Price history: Before this deal, adding HBO Max to your Hulu subscription cost $9.99 a month. $2.99 seems like a steal.
Consensus: HBO Max is home to all of HBO’s original content, making it an ideal expanse for sci-fi fans to explore, as well as showing big-name movies and series we’ve already mentioned. Hulu, which you need to claim this deal, is home to some huge franchises like Alien and Predator.
