HBO Max 'Mad Men' 4K Error Reveals Crew
HBO Max recently added the TV show 'Mad Men' in 4K.
But there was a funny mistake!
In one scene where a character named Roger Sterling throws up, you can see the crew members helping with the special effects.
This happened because the wrong files were sent to HBO Max.
The company that made the show, Lionsgate Television, is fixing the mistake soon.
It's like when you watch a movie and see something you're not supposed to, but in this case, it's on TV!
HBO Max released 'Mad Men' in 4K on December 1, 2025.
A 4K transfer error revealed crew members during Roger Sterling's barf scene.
The error occurred because incorrect files were delivered to HBO Max.
Lionsgate Television is fixing the mistake and will update the scene soon.
Fans noticed the error in Season 1, Episode 7, titled 'Red in the Face'.
