What has happened to HBO!?

[BlackHitachi]

I used to LOVE HBO's original programming!!

1. The Sopranos
2. Oz
3. Carnivàle
4. Deadwood
5. Big Love
6. Entourage
7. Rome
8. Curb Your Enthusiasm
9. Sex and the City
10. Inside the NFL
11. Russell Simmons' Def Comedy Jam


Now I don't even think there is a need for HBO!!

Oh yea and i do watch
12. Real Time with Bill Maher

There is a new one that looks interesting on September 7 (see thread in this Forum).

But you are right, they are certainly at low ebb.

Supposedly there is a new David Milch show - somewhat more conventional than the last one - but I am not sure when it debuts.

I am still waiting for A Song of Ice and Fire series if it ever comes out.

Given the lack of compelling TV on HBO, I was shocked that they let Inside the NFL go..... Which Showtime immediately snapped up.....

Weeds, Call Girl, Californication, Dexter, Inside the NFL, The L Word, Penn & Teller: BS.... Killer lineup....

Meanwhile, the only thing on HBO of note was Generation Kill, which is now over too....

HBO used to be the best, but SHO has left them in the dust.

I have had HBO in the house for over 15 years. If things don't turn around I will be dumping them when I make the jump to an HD receiver w/ Dish after the first of the year. Used to watch HBO multiple time a week, now it is doing good to get 1 or 2 viewings a month.

The only reason I still have Hbo is for Bill Maher show . When he goes into hiatus so does HBO. But the way I have to pay for dvr fees on three dvrs, it isn't worth it to cut them off unless I cut out all premiums and drop down to just top 200 or top 250. BUt I agree there isn't much on HBO. But while we are discussing Premiums , SHOWTIME doesn't have much of anything to watch in the way of good movies. They do have some origional series tv shows . SO it looks like HBO has relevant movies but no real origional series tv now and SHowtime has the opposite.

And Cinemax has pretty much the same movies as HBO and only costs $.01
