What are your favorite HBO shows?

[Lefty]

I was wondering what are your top HBO shows and would you buy the dvd of any?

 

[thirty-two]

sex and the city!

 

[vince56]

bought the DVDs of Sex & the City
Won't spend the money on the Sopranos DVDs 'cause they're too much and the show is on all the time
Loved Oz, but wouldn't want the DVDs (well, except for the last season, I had family on the show)
Love Bill Maher's show ( to you Republicans, hahah) but those won't come out on DVD...he writes books, his audiences read.
What I really like most about HBO is their once-in-awhile impromptu comedy specials. Chris Rock, Robin Williams, Maher, Miller, etc. I wish they did more of that, it's great stuff!

That's it for HBO, now if we're talking Comedy Central or the Cartoon Network (Adult Swim)........ that's a whole different story!

My favorite shows are Curb Your Enthusiasm and Six Feet Under.

 

[Chaplin]

1) Deadwood
2) Carnivale
3) The Sopranos
4) Curb Your Enthusiasm
5) Real Time with Bill Maher

I've never had HBO, but back when I was at a school that didn't charge for bandwidth, I liked to watch:
1) Carnivale (RIP)
2) Real Time
3) Sopranos

I tried to watch the first episode of Deadwood, but lost interest. I'll give it another chance when I have more time.

The first four episodes of the series are nothing short of amazing.

And a big "screw you" to HBO for cancelling Carnivale, which ended season 2 on a high note.

 

[Mike Olbinski]

Deadwood is brilliant, best show on television.

In your opinion

Mike

 

[Bada0Bing]

That would have to be the Sopranos, and yes I own all of the DVD's. I watched the first episode of Rome and will probably watch the rest too when I have time, but for now I'm saving them on my DVR.

 

[jenna2891]

mr. show, sopranos, curb, and six feet under and sex and the city are tied.

 

[HeavyB3]

Inside the NFL

 

[Ryanwb]

I'm mega pissed they cancelled Carnivale. This last season was the best show I have seen in a long time. Stupid TV

 

[Evil Ash]

1) Deadwood
2) Carnivale
3) Sopranos
4) Entourage
5) Six Feet Under
6) Real Time
7) The Wire

1) Carnivale (RIP)

Have they officially cancelled it yet? They still have the show listed on their web site. I know that there were rumors about them cancelling it but I don't think its been done yet.

Maybe they're still thinking it over (well thats what I'm hoping for anyways)

5.11.2005 | Carnivale Comes to a Close:

After a two-season (24 episode) run, HBO has decided not to renew its Emmy®-winning Depression-era drama, Carnivale . As Carolyn Strauss said, "We have decided not to renew Carnivale. We feel the two seasons we had on the air told the story very well and we're proud of what everyone associated with the show has accomplished."

Garnering widespread critical praise, Carnivale contributed to HBO's 32 Primetime Emmy® Award wins in 2004, landing 5 awards out of 7 nominations. The wins include trophies for Outstanding Cinematography and Outstanding Art Direction for a Single-Camera Series, ending the series on a high note.

That's such bullcrap because Season 2 ended with a ton of questions and a pretty major cliffhanger.

Oh, I thought the storyline FINALLY got to a great part! Both the Priest and Sophie were alive with special powers, and it looked like the main character was seriously hurt. Now you have a bunch of carnies, who society considers dregs, fighting for the human race and good. While the priest has powerful allies, and a facade of good and decency behind him. It could have made for a very interesting fight for survival with the nomadic carnies versus the evil church goers.

 

[vince56]

Man, I'm surprised so many people are into Real Time with Bill Maher. That's refreshing to see

 

[joeshmo]

Not having HBO I have to rent everything.

I am half way through season 5 of the Sopranos and just started the Deadwood series. I really like both so far.

Looks as if I am going to have to add Carnivale to the list.

 

[dreamcastrocks]

1)Band of Brothers
2) SATC
3) Sopranos
4) Oz
5) Six Feet Under

Love Real Time.

Entourage and Rome currently. Wife and I watched SATC all the time. HBO does good series. Looking forward to the new comedy with Bill Paxton that is upcoming...looks like it could be good.
