February may be the shortest month on the calendar, but HBO Max is treating it like a full-length marathon. The service is stacking February 2026 with a mix of prestige HBO Originals, returning fan favorites, documentary programming, live sports, and a large influx of classic films that collectively create one of the platform’s denser monthly lineups in recent memory.
The month is anchored by the return of Last Week Tonight with John Oliver for its thirteenth season, alongside the final season of Like Water for Chocolate, which continues its adaptation of Laura Esquivel’s beloved novel. New original series also enter the picture, including Neighbors from A24 and Portobello, HBO’s first Italian original series. When paired with documentaries, thrillers, animation, and family-friendly additions, February’s slate is broad enough to cover nearly every viewing mood.
