      Back in the day, before every feature presentation, you got the real deal -- it's funny how the new one is on the front and back of this clip, since HBO is the youtube account playing the video . . . .times have changed

          For me, it's worth it for Spartacus, and Game of Thrones. I like the lack of commercial interruptions, and we got such a good deal on the cost it ends up being like 10 bucks a month.

            When I did have HBO I was sucked in by the original series as well. Sopranos, Rome, Carnival, etc.. These are what made HBO worth it for me before I "saw the light". SOILENT GREEN IS MADE FROM PEOPLE!!!!

              HBO has released some really good series. Wasn't Carnivale HBO?

                I got 6 months of HBO free when we set up auto pay. Did it just for Game of Thrones, and we've been enjoying Girls and Veep along the way, and in demand of their other stuff is great.

                I don't care about the movie selection, I've already seen what I want to see by the time it hits HBO, although I managed to watch 20 minutes of Green Lantern the other day before I puked.

                  Yeah, I had to quit that show, it's so overwrought. We'll see if I get into it this season.

                    YES! That was definitely my favorite HBO original series.

                      Don't forget Deadwood and the Wire. Fantastic shows. I pretty much got cable just so I could get HBO. Love the OnDemand feature.

                        I mentioned The Wire, but forgot about Deadwood, excellent show.

                          I can't discuss Deadwood without disabling the language filter on the Museum.

                                Since were on the subject remember the old HBO movie intro's in the 80's? You always knew something good was about to come on when you saw this intro..
