Finally realized that HBO Go has like almost every season of every HBO show ever.
I can't watch The Leftovers without my wife, so I don't know where to begin.....
Give True Detective Season 2 a second look/chance?
Watch The Wire remastered in Widescreen?
Veep? Oz? The last 5 or so seasons of Curb?
So many options, so little time.

:D 8)

:lol: Don't watch True Detective Season 2. That was truly awful.

Have you see The Night Of? I'd knock that out if you haven't.

Can never go wrong watching The Wire or Oz again. Great shows.

4 episodes left for which show? True Detective? I would definitely finish it. The ending is a bit disappointing but I didn't hate it as much as others here did. The first seven episodes are brilliant.

I watched the first season of Deadwood about 5 years ago and forgot about it. I need to rewatch and finish the series.

i saw that Carnivale is on. That show was only one season long unfortunately, but I really liked it and look forward to watching it again.

It's weird but stick with it. You'll be rewarded with the best terrible version of Homeward Bound you ever heard.

No you don't. Show went to shit soon after season 1. Season 2 was ok, season 3 was shit.

This is wrong. Deadwood is one of the best shows of all time. It's a shame it wasn't allowed to finish.

Veep is hilarious and has basically become a mockumentary at this point. Can't tell is its art imitating life or life imitating art.

Definitely finishing season 1 true detective. Incredible so far, but can see where they run into problems wrapping up and extending for future seasons.

It's an anthology series so future seasons don't have the same cast or plot. True detective season 2 is a complete waste of time. It's one of the worst series of tv I can remember.

The Young Pope is great. Watch that. And Enlightened is excellent too.

Second on Enlightened. Five years from now you're going to be reading a bunch of think pieces about how it was more underrated than The Wire.

Big Little Lies very good as well.

true detective season 2 was great when it was on, but not sure if it would be any good watching it nowadays.

Oz i watched but it was pretty poor at the end.

Carnivale was fun to watch.

Never got into Girls or Silicon Valley.

Was a bug fan of Curb but the last 2 seasons of it sucked other than one or two episodes here and there.(Palestinian chicken)

You'd have to pay me to watch Girls or Sex and The City.
I remember being disappointed by TD Season 2, but I honestly don't even remember the plot or premise,
so it would almost be like watching it for the 1st time. The Wire in semi HD will be awesome, but that's just because
I hate those black vert bars......I never watched Sopranos from front to back. Etc Etc.

I wonder if they have a series called 1st & 10, or an HBO movie called Long Gone? These go back to the 80s.

I guess our love affair starts and ends with Rectify.


Deadwood was great for 1 season, fair for season 2 and gets an D/incomplete for the unfinished season 3.

If I could go back in time I would unwatch season 2 and 3.

This is ridiculous. It wasn't great, but it wasn't close to the worst tv series of all time. It was average, but not even near the greatness of season 1.

That's literally the most complimentary thing I have ever heard anyone say about it. I disagree.

anyone who watched season 2 of True Detective got exactly what they deserve.
