The impending Death of HBO

[Dantheman]

I think we watched four or five episodes, definitely didn't make it to the end. Maybe I'll revisit.

It did not come together. The reboot was terrible (both seasons). Should have left it alone, but glad they tried? I think?

[Benny Profane]

they already did, and that's why HBO's dead. I loved most of the popular HBO shows (except Girls, fuck that trash). So many of the good shows came to ends far short of their potential. Deadwood. Rome. Luck. John from Cincy (yeah, I dug that show). It's equal to the shows that saw good ends - 6 feet under, the Sopranos, the Wire.

Luck was extremely promising, but they killed it after killing four horses. PETA was not pleased.

HBO's lineup needs to be more stacked:

Between Curb and Silicon Valley its all that is keeping me interested. Hopefully Veep comes back soon.

Now even 2 -3 years ago we had Silicon Valley, Veep, Vice Principals, The Brink, Hello Ladies, East Bound and Down Etc

IMO GOT is for nerds and it doesn't do anything for me. I regonize westworld is great too but it doesn't do anything for me.

In addition to more shows like EastBound and Down we need another Band of Brothers and Sopranos.

Sharp Objects doesn’t do it for you?

I liked High Maintenance too.

John from Cincy

Loved it too, tic a regular on the Itunes. Think there was a really compelling story in there somewhere...and whether dying or not HBO has had one hell of a run. Can remember 7th grade 1977 rigging up the antenna wire & aluminum foil to get the harrad experiment.

Fond memories of late night HBO/Cinemax titty movies in my early teens at a latchkey friend's house whose parents happened to be the only ones who bought premium cable channels. Shit, I think cable TV of any kind was a pretty new thing in our hick town at the time. Simpler times. Our current state of pornucopia can't be healthy for the youngin's.

I remember when this happened. I was in college and had just gotten cable in my apartment..

Who has time for watching people pretending to be something they are not?

Not I.
