DOH! I forgot about that one. I do like Shameless.

Re: HBO Shows
 

HBO
The Wire is the best show ever, period.
I'd give Boardwalk second
Dexter third (last few seasons are so-so - good)
Entourage 4th (last few seasons were pretty bad)
Couldn't get through Sopranos (6th season was the worst thing ever, 5th season was pretty terrible. First 3 would ALMOST give the wire a run for it's money) or Deadwood (too slow YAWN)

Showtime
Californication (excellent show, Duchovny is gold)

Shows like Weeds, Eastbound and Down, and Game of Thrones I have a very big love/hate relationship with so I wouldn't rank them.

Re: HBO Shows
 

Using a mix of both networks in order i like:

Six feet under
Dexter
californication
Flight of the concords
Game of thrones
Entourage
Weeds
Curb your enthusiasm
true blood

That's how I'm feeling today but those ranks change daily. I have to watch some of those other shows like sopranos and oz that were a bit before my time

Re: HBO Shows
 

Wife and I went to a Halloween party as Khal Drogo and Daenerys Targaryen from Game of Thrones this year. One of our favorite shows.

Re: HBO Shows
 

Band of Brothers is the measuring stick for sure, for me. But right now, and granted, I am only through the
second episode, but I DIG Game of Thrones. It takes balls to make a period show that far back but the payoff
is tremendous. There is so much to like about the show, and again, it could all fall apart any time now, lots of shows
are great in the beginning. I know I am going to watch 2-3 more this weekend and start in on Homeland.

Re: HBO Shows
 

:tu Me and the wife have been watching all the seasons on dvd!

Re: HBO Shows
 

Six Feet Under is really good if you're into dramas. The mother is super annoying though (she plays the old Nanny in American Horror Story)

Re: HBO Shows
 

Amen

Re: HBO Shows
 

Eastbound and Down returns Feb. 19th. Looking forward to that. Also Luck looks interesting...

Re: HBO Shows
 

Was hoping Luck would be better... I'll watch another episode though.

Re: HBO Shows
 

Awesome, they still calling season 3 of EB&D the finale season?

I enjoyed the first season, second wasn't bad.

Re: HBO Shows
 

I liked the first season better than the second. I'm looking forward to season 3. Should be hilarious:tu

Re: HBO Shows
 

Anyone watching the new EBAD season? Pretty good so far I think.

Re: HBO Shows
 

I finished The Wire on Wednesday. I think it is one of the best series that I have ever seen.

Re: HBO Shows
 

It's incredible, isn't it?

Re: HBO Shows
 

It is amazing how many different things they touch on. The characters were great too. Bubs was great. I thought it was funny how Omar would whistle the song to The Farmer In The Dell when walking thru the alleys :r

Re: HBO Shows
 

Everyone has faults. You end up loving the drunk cops (Bunk and McNulty). You even end up liking some of the criminals (Omar, Wallace, Sobotka). I loved when Omar testified in court. My favorite drama of all time.

Re: HBO Shows
 

SHowtime has 2 series I am addicted to:


Shameless
House of Lies

Re: HBO Shows
 

Omar testifying in court was awesome.

Levy: "So you make your living off of drug dealers"
Omar: "Just like you"

Oh Snap!!!! :r

Re: HBO Shows
 

New episode of EBaD tonight.
