Title: Premium Pay TV Post by: Boshamp on September 03, 2014, 03:19:45 PM Has anyone else watched anything on premiums lately? (HBO, Cinemax, Showtime, Starz, Etc.)
I'm not seeing a lot of talk on here and there is tons of good stuff showing. Lots of shows ending, and lots beginning. Any thoughts on premium content? Title: Re: Premium Pay TV Post by: Duke.Togo on September 03, 2014, 04:28:52 PM There are a few shows that I watch on HBO, but I haven't checked out any of the others. I'm lucky enough to have a friend that lets me use his HBO Go, otherwise I wouldn't pay for it.
Title: Re: Premium Pay TV Post by: Boshamp on September 03, 2014, 09:28:11 PM I traded my HBO GO password for my brother's Netflix password. ha ha been a good trade for both of us. HBO is definitely the best content provider IMO, but SHO is getting pretty up there with good shows too. I wish Starz would stop cancelling so much of their content to continue to take more risks. Camelot was an awesome show that only lasted one season, and Sparticus only had a limited run with limited episodes each season.

Welinskivich II, Esq. on September 03, 2014, 11:57:57 PM I gave up on television for the most part, both basic and premium cable, at the turn of the millennium. I almost exclusively watch documentary shows and various childhood/young adulthood faves on the internet, mainly YouTube.
I do try to catch an episode or two of the latest popular shows from time to time, just to see if they might interest me. So far, I don't feel like I've missed out on much. Besides, all that TV watching time cuts into my gaming time... which is how TV sets were meant to be used. ;) Title: Re: Premium Pay TV Post by: Boshamp on September 04, 2014, 12:04:50 AM That is why I use two TVs in the man-cave. ha ha My wife watches a ton more than I do, but working in the industry has offered me insight as well as access to all TV has to offer. I still mostly just watch Cartoon Network, but there are a few shows that I catch. I cannot stand waiting for each episode though, even on my DVR, I stack 10-12 episodes at a time to binge watch all at once. :)
Spartacus was my last interest, as well as Boardwalk Empire, but a lot of these shows are becoming less and less desirable to me. |
