I never saw Bored 2 Death, but Hung was a good show. That's too bad.

uno · 12-20-2011, 05:30 PM

Hung and Bored to Death were awesome, especially the latter. I've never seen How to Make It in America.

Pipecrew · 12-20-2011, 05:33 PM

Hung was great. The other 2 were super weak IMO

CamTraffic · 12-20-2011, 05:34 PM

Ah shit! I love "hung"

BSleazy · 12-20-2011, 05:37 PM

I really like How To Make It In America. Never watched the other two.

Caligari · 12-20-2011, 05:46 PM

Bored To Death was pretty funny.

How often does HBO actually cancel shows, I thought it was very rare.

Yeah. It sucked that it was stopped.

But when it was on...it had me saying the word "cocksucker" every minute. lol

Pseudonymous · 12-20-2011, 06:29 PM

How To Make It In America was cancelled?! UGHHH! Hung I liked also but I can understand because it wasn't going anywhere and his wife found out. I hadn't seen Bored 2 Death?

With all the television out there, its amazing these shows dont' stay on. Ridiculous

docputer · 12-20-2011, 06:42 PM

Thomas Jane was nominated for best actor for Hung last week. Thought maybe HBO would keep the show for another year.

That guy made saying the word cocksucker a work of art. It is kind of like Samuel L. Jackson and the phrase Mother Fucker.

From what I understand HBO canceled Deadwood, but then told the creator/producer that they would be open to making 1 or 2 movies to fully wrap it up. I have not read anything about if or when those are actually going to happen.

I thought I had read that the creator of Deadwood (David Milch) canceled it himself to work on what he was convinced was gonna be a BIGGER show on HBO: "John From Cincinnati"
Unfortunately that show was very uninteresting and only aired from June to August of 2007

That might be the case. I remember reading an interview with Timothy Olyphant (the guy that played Bullock) and he said that the producer called him and said the show was ending after the current season, but that they hoped to do a movie or two in order to wrap it up, but I don't remember for certain if it was canceled or if he just decided to end it. It might have been a case where they were only going to offer him a half season to finish it up and he decided to go a different route. I would still love to see a movie that wraps the whole story up.

That show was a horrible abortion. The only thing going for it was Al Bundy.

marlboroack · 12-20-2011, 07:45 PM

Pretty sure they want us to work and make more money than to be happy to have decent entertainment.

Diomed · 12-20-2011, 07:51 PM

Those shows were just OK to watch,

definitely nothing spectacular or incredible.

Just look at it like this,

if HBO is cancelling those mediocre shows, just imagine what they will be replaced with ;)

More shows like Game of Thrones, Sopranos, Curb, etc.

Bring on the new changes!

NaughtyVisions · 12-20-2011, 07:53 PM

Goddamn it. I loved Hung. The things I hated about it were that the episodes were too fucking short (less than 30 min), and that there was only 10 episodes in a season.

Honestly, Hung is about the only reason I have HBO. Guess I can cut down on my FiOS bill now.

You're missing out on a shitload of other great programming on HBO.

I've always figured as much, but I have to take into consideration what the wife would like. As stupid as it may sound, we do most things together, including watching TV at night. I managed to get her into Hung, not sure if she'd be into a lot of the other stuff.

My wife will watch the following(not in any particular order): House, Hung, Walking Dead, Hell on Wheels, Boardwalk Empire, American Horror Story, Always Sunny in Philadelphia and possibly a few more. The rest of the time she subjects me to 20 year old eps of COPS or Campus PD.

They aren't going to replace half hour shows with any of them. Maybe they'll bring back Eastbound and Down.

They are already rolling out a new show with Dustin Hoffman,

I'm sure they have plenty of others in the works as well to replace the time slots they have just freed up.

VikingMan · 12-20-2011, 08:51 PM

Hung was one of the worst shows I have ever seen.

If I ever run into Samuel Jackson I'm going to ask him to call me a mother fucker. It would be like having your portrait drawn by one of the masters or playing horse with Jordan.

We just had to put a pet down and will probably have to put another down in short time and the scene in Luck where they put down the horse had us both sobbing like little girls.

absolutely. Him reading "Go the F to Sleep" was one of the most amazing things i've ever heard.

Hung was kind of funny at the start, but it never seemed like they had a plan with it. The last 6 eps were painfully boring.

NETbilling · 12-21-2011, 12:24 AM

yeah fuck that! that i have been saying that since 6 feet under and sopranos ended
nothing as good came along since then
i was really digging Hung, something different
i just hope they ll put some closure to it, with a finale or something.

bronco67 · 12-21-2011, 07:02 AM

I can agree on Hung. I stopped watching it one week about a year ago, and didn't care much if I ever watched it again.

I hope they don't cancel Enlightened. That was a great one.

loreen · 12-21-2011, 07:23 AM

I like Bored 2 Death, love that HBO vibe in it

CIVMatt · 12-21-2011, 08:10 AM

Bored 2 Death was a really good show, Hung was great, but the last season was so shitty you could tell the writers had no idea where to go with the story

Loved that show... guess another show with semi intelligent & witty writing is lost to the crap they churn out loaded with a good dose of ultra-violence.

crockett · 12-21-2011, 08:46 AM

Nothing new it's why I typically wait a few seasons before decide to watch one of their series.

When they canceled fucking Deadwood, Rome and Carnivàle I kinda gave up on HBO series. They make some awesome stuff but they seem to have a bad habit of canceling good series once you start getting into them.

They pissed me off with Deadwood & Rome and I understand Carnivàle had low ratings but that was because is was a very "in depth" show but had a fucking awesome plot and story going. You just had to follow it very closely.

Juicy D. Links · 12-21-2011, 06:25 PM

bring back the sopranos!!!!!!!!!!!! lolol

Axeman · 12-21-2011, 07:03 PM

Loved Bored to Death. Pissed about that. Enjoyed Hung but it lost its way after season one really. Going to miss How to Make it in America just for Lake Bell.

dooglas · 12-21-2011, 10:13 PM

After the dude's ex-wife found out he was a manwhore I dunno where they coulda went with Hung.

Rome has to be one of my all time favorite series. They could have gotten many more years out of the theme. Hell Octavian was just getting started as far as real history goes.

Porno Dan · 12-22-2011, 11:02 AM

Fewer and fewer shows make it past their first season these days.

Only 23 % of shows that premiered this Fall got renewed.

Yea it pissed me off they killed that series.. Deadwood was the real kicker.. They didn't cancel it because of ratings they canceled it because it cost too much to produce.

Yet then they turned around and make Rome which IMO seems like it would cost more to produce than Deadwood did.
