Favorite Hbo Series ***(taking suggestions for new poll!)***

[fruitfly]

two fucking pages and no one says MR SHOW. how the fuck could you have missed that one. it's some of the funniest shit HBO ever put on air

You're right. I'm an idiot.
It wasn't listed in the poll so I forgot all about it (plus, the bastards at HBO don't even air it anymore).

 

[cravNbeets]

umm, mr. show, since we're voting on shows that aren't in production.

from page 1

 

[alasdairm]

i didn't mention mr. show as, for me, it always goes without saying.

I am anxiously awaiting to see the first runs of deadwood on DVR, i do not believe in jumping into something midseries!!

after all the hoopla, i really tried to get into 6 ft under, but was just not impressed after 3 episodes. didn't get it, may try again.

i ADORED extras, but haven't seen it on lately, loved the few i saw.

and of course, sopranos, but mainly only bc it is the only show i can enjoy with my husband.

i can't decide if i love or hate Lucky Louie. some of them suck

You're in for a treat. The dialogue is pretty straight forward for the first season but takes on a Shakespearean polish for seasons two and three. You almost have to watch every episode twice to really take it all in. You can always play the deadwood drinking game as well. Every time someone says "cocksucker" take a drink.

What channel was "Dead Like Me" on?

 

[Finder]

Showtime, I think, although I've never seen it.

 

[staminawalks]

entourage

sopranos went to shit in season 6

 

[ruski]

Arrested Developed was canned wasn't it? What network does it show on in the US?

 

[cravNbeets]

fawcks

i heard rumor that showtime was picking it up for new episodes, but that may be a claim

An' I Got My Own Boothe

'Deadwood' by a mile.

It's kinda like all I ever wanted in a Western,
but harder,
more Swear'gen,
& it's made of hours,
not minutes.

Like 'Tombstone' with metho thrown on it.

Soprano's quite close second.

 

[DarthMom]

malice i just saw on a commercial, that the sci fi channel is picking up dead like me to play every weeknight at 7. it is pretty good, i watched it when it first came out, but lost track of when it was on, so stopped.

it doesn't.

Curb Your Enthusiasm, I remember watching that on late night (Australian) TV, it was great! Forgot about it until now, d/l time!

Six Feet Under would be the best full-series for me, followed by The Sopranos then Deadwood.

Though I've only seen season 1 of Six Feet Under and Deadwood, and admittedly haven't seen any of the other shows listed, besides Sex and the City, but that shows shite. Get yo torrent on, zegs!

 

[frizzantik]

hey where's Mr. Show!

 

[*=Regulator=*]

Entourage gets my vote, with Sopranos a very close second and 6 Feet Under a very close third.

Swingers+Jerry Macguire+Lifesyles of the Rich and Famous+superb dialouge+hilarious cameos=solid fucking gold television.

 

[carl]

Curb is the best of them, close behind is Entourage, Real Time wif Billy, and Big Love(not on the list)

 

[supertrav77]

I think Dream On is the funniest show ever to appear on HBO.

 

[34-dihydroxyphen]

The Wire. If you don't think that this is the greatest show ever to come on television, then you haven't seen it from the beginning.
