Lucky Louie, Entourage, and Cathouse are other interesting shows on HBO. Since they're going to be hosting a few UFC fight cards this year HBO has become my favorite station! (Airing UFC is why Spike has "saved television" for me heh heh )
HBO's programs, specials and movies are mostly in stunning HD quality now too.

The Office is the second best show.

Thank goodness someone didn't forget the sunday night combo of my HBO favorites Entourage and Lucky Louie.

The Wire is the best drama on TV since Twin Peaks.

Yes....ROME ROME ROME ROME!!! and Big Love has been a slowly addictive show as well.

I've caught the first couple of episodes of the new season of 'Extras' which is on HBO. It's very funny and I went out and bought the 1st season on dvd, but haven't gotten a chance to watch it. David Bowie guest starred the other night and had a great scence with the lead actor Ricky Gervais. You can track down the clip on YouTube. Check it out.

Oh my god...the song was phenomenal.

wow! super excited about the "a song of fire and ice" series! that sounds amazing. I guess it will be on TV a year from now or so... That's super promising though. The books are great.

the next ones i was thinking of was Rome and Entourage. They both looks promising, and truth be told I like the shorter series as they aren't quite the HUGE undertaking like Sopranos was.

Any 6' under fans? That is still better than deadwood for me i think...

NOOOOOOOOOO! i didn't mean that. i meant better than sopranos!!!!! i probably was drunk when i posted that and i probably meant nothing is better than deadwood...

6' under is my 2nd favorite, or tied with sopranos...

(i realize a lot of peope probably consider that sacralige too, i dunno, it's just more daring i think)
