This show is going to be killer, I am an HBO original programing addict.

Agreed, but don't sell Showtime short. Their shows are getting better and better all the time. They're still not up to HBO, but they're gaining. I'll be watching this for sure. Buscemi is awesome, equally capable of being funny and creepy/intimidating. Should be great stuff.
Showtime has a couple cool shows, but they could never attract a talent like Scorsese. Showtime will always be HBO's little brother.
Just caught a preview of this show on HBO last night, I'll definitely be watching/recording this series.
I'm not a huge fan of drama series (besides Dexter and Breaking Bad), but I'm obsessed with the majority of HBO's comedy series so I'm gonna check this out.
Why? Market penetration? Money? That's like saying that Houston can never get NBA talent over New York. Makes no sense.
Time Warner owns HBO. CBS owns Showtime. Time Warner >>> CBS. If you have a choice, you work for the company that probably pays more and probably has more influence in the 'industry'.
