Just one, impossible. There are too many great shows that have been on HBO.
My other favourite HBO shows would have to be:
- The Newsroom
- Bored To Death
- Boardwalk Empire
- Six Feet Under
- Band of Brothers
- The Pacific
- True Blood
What's your favourite HBO TV series?
As my bio bar already suggests, my favorite HBO series is Boardwalk Empire.
Why? Because it contains all the ingredients I love in a TV show (or entertainment in general):
Alcohol - based in prohibition Atlantic City, the entire show is based around the illegal liquor trade.
Awesome music - From Vince Giordano's jazzy take on the classic Livery Stable Blues through to Regina Spektor's My Man, this show has one of the best soundtracks I've ever heard!
Cool outfits. One of the few shows where the men's wardrobe is just as poignant as the women's. I think more people should pay attention to this.
Hot women. Need I say more?
Violence. Whilst there is also plenty of dialogue, and many episodes where nothing "major" happens... but the show is kept alive by violence that looks believable - something that a lot of Tommy-gun loving, gangster style movies and shows struggle with.
I love the prohibition era, everything from the music to the outfits screams glamour and decadence (or at least it does in our rose-tinted HBO perspective here).
The acting is powerful, and I think this is possibly the best project that Steve Buscemi has ever been involved in.
Hi Lily!
For me Carnivàle was a masterpiece though it's a pity that it only
My second favorite is True Blood. My only complaint is that I don't
And the rest of the TV shows that I really enjoyed - though I didn't get to see all the seasons - are:
My top three in order.
The Wire is not only my favourite HBO series it is my number 1 TV program of all time.
I must give Game of Thrones another try though. I have only heard good reports of it. I have watched a few episodes and it did look very good but I like to watch these series' over a few days in a 'stock up on food and drink, lock the doors and turn off the phone' marathon. I am due one.
i like most of all the tv serial which is telecast on HBO. But among all of them the most shows i like is as under.
1) The dark knight rises
2) Rush Hour 3
My favourite HBO tv series that I like is Game of Thrones. There was one other series that I watched for 5 minutes yesterday, then had to go out somewhere. I am not sure whether it was HBO, or some other channel... I'll try watching it again today.
