I'm thinking about getting HBO just because of this but I won't be able to watch at 9. Any idea when/if the episodes are going to be replayed?
Call your cable company and ask for a complimentary preview. I called directv and got HBO Cinemax and showtime free for three months.
An FYI, I heard that daytime airings are edited for language so just watch/record the evening airings to hear it all.
Yeah it will be free for 3 months but I don't want to take the chance of forgetting to cancel before 3 months is up lol. Plus most of HBO programming is garbage IMO
No. Netflix, NFL, ESPN, Root, sometimes TNT, FX SciFi and USA. I was into Person of Interest on CBS for like 2 season but then just got over it.
I was just kidding. I'm being playfully dickish because I'm of the opinion that HBO is one of the best networks in terms of original content (both past and present). Netflix is up there too as of the last couple of years. Anyway, back on topic. I've never been this pumped for a training camp. The time since the end of the Rockets season has gone way too slowly.
HBO is pretty much the best channel on pay TV. You're cray. I'm not a Texans fan whatsoever, but I'll watch because HEB made me love JJ Watt. I like when he crushes cans to make food.
Yeah I beg to differ on HBO. Then again if you are saying it's the best on pay TV, maybe you're right. I don't watch much of the premium cable channels.

Well how contradictory.. You say HBO is garbage (it is far from it) and then you say you don't watch it. So you formed an opinion based off of what exactly?
There is a difference between watching something regularly and watching something in the past. I don't watch it regularly and that is because I didn't really like what I've watched in the past.
I pay for HBO and will probably never cancel it. But aside from their original programming, which is phenomenal but probably less than 10% of what they air, HBO isn't that great as a movie channel. They rarely have movies I really care to see and I'm a movie junkie.
No, it's simply the best TV period besides maybe Netflix original programming and that is pretty much an objective statement as most HBO shows have some of the highest aggregate reviews(go to imbd or metacretic). From Band of Brothers to Game of Thrones to True Detective first season, they have some of the best original programming in the business. You don't see many A list movie stars staring in cable tv shows, but you do see them in HBO series and that has everything to do with HBO's credibility.
