Best HBO show ever (not miniseries):


Jan 14, 2014, 10:39 AM

1. The Wire
2. Curb Your Enthusiasm
3. The Sopranos
4. Boardwalk Empire
5. Treme (with consistent appearance by Galactic, The Subdudes, Steve Earle, Rebirth Brass Band, Trombone Shorty, Dr. John, Irma Thomas, etc., the music was out of this world)

god what a terrible show


Jan 14, 2014, 11:25 AM

I bought seasons 1 and 2 at Target on Black Friday a few years ago. I got through approximately 30 minutes of the first ep. I never even opened season 2. Worst $16 I ever spent.

and it IS bad, but in such a good good way

however, I'm glad that the last season is coming up

Same, but if they actually killed Eric, I'm quitting on it.

This coming season is the last season I believe.

t!ts and gratuitous ##### keeps me coming back, so I will watch the final season. Also, Eric is by far my favorite character. Him and Jessica...

Yep, gratuitous #####.


Jan 14, 2014, 1:00 PM [ in reply to When Sookie went to Fairyland I said eff this shiz. Butt, ]

I watched the first 3 seasons. I was truly shocked when my ex-girlfriend that left me on account of having sex conflicted with her job as a youth director told me she was watching, in part because of the sex. I think she was married by then or at least dating/engaged to her husband.

No Deadwood or Rome?....


Jan 14, 2014, 11:35 AM

I think both of those are better than Boardwalk Empire and Treme at least. Haven't watched The Wire.

badge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

The upcoming season will be the last for Boardwalk Empire.


Jan 14, 2014, 11:38 AM

I liked the seasons before this one, but it definitely fell off the burner a bit this year.

"Deadwood" was awesome. Ian McShane was born to play Al Swearenegen.

all other answers are incorrect.

Re: Best HBO show ever (not miniseries):


Jan 14, 2014, 2:02 PM

1)The Wire (hands down bc of story line and depth IMO)
2)Sopranos (Best acting and awesome)
3)Game of Thrones - this saga still continues, but as of now
4)Eastbound & Down (W/ 4th place there is still plenty of pu55y and cash for nasty old Scottie Pippen)
5)fill in the blank with deadwood, curb, oz, whatever

Purposefully left off Newsroom. Started watching it and it turned into a noticeably liberal show but based their story line off of being unbiased... but also scattered some annoying characters in with a Jim and Pam type of soap opera going on. It is unwatchable.

My gf likes Girls and it is pretty entertaining. Except for the pig utters.
