There are a lot of options in today's streaming world. Because of that, it's never easy picking your next new show. In acknowledgement of that (and obviously in hopes to drive some subscriptions) HBO Max will be giving away the first episode of their newest original, The Flight Attendant for free. 

The series stars The Big Bang Theory's Kaley Cuoco and, if you watched the first trailer, you know that her character is having a pretty bad time. 

Interested parties can watch the premiere of the series right now at  www.hbomax.com/the-flight-attendant. If you for some reason want to wait to watch it live, the first episode will debut on HBO Max on November 26th. If you don't have HBO Max and have no interest in signing up for the service, you'll also be able to watch the episodes following the day that they air on HBO (if you have this you have HBO Max, by the way), On Demand, and TBS. 

Full press release: 

The series premiere episode of the Max Original dark comedic thriller THE FLIGHT ATTENDANT, starring Kaley Cuoco (“The Big Bang Theory”), is now available to stream for free at www.hbomax.com/the-flight-attendant ahead of its Thursday, November 26 premiere.
 
Following its debut on HBO Max, the series’ premiere episode will also air on HBO linear channel, On Demand, and on select partners’ streaming platforms starting FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 27 at 10:00 p.m. ET/PT during a Free Preview Weekend offered by participating partners, as well as on TBS at 10:30 p.m. ET/PT on SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 29 as part of an HBO Max-themed marathon over Thanksgiving weekend.

The limited series continues with two new episodes on December 3, followed by two new episodes on December 10, leading up to the finale episode on December 17. The series is a story of how an entire life can change in one night. A flight attendant (Cuoco) wakes up in the wrong hotel, in the wrong bed, with a dead man – and no idea what happened.
