Apr. 18th, 2011 08:04 pmI caved. Decided to give myself a little treat and upgraded to HBO with On Demand. YAY!
Very excited to see Game of Thrones and last Seasons True Blood which is being re-run on it.
I think it was a combination of Bellafante's annoying NY Times review and the realization that some of the best tv shows are popping up on HBO - they are also prepping Neil Gaiman's American Gods for a series. And "Game Change".
It's not that pricey. About the price of a movie once a month - and I rarely go to movies any more.
(Movies in NYC cost $15 without popcorn or soda.)
I guess it should be noted that I am not a subscriber to the NY Times - why bother, I get better news and reviews for free elsewhere. The Times has gone downhill over the past four years. I used to subscribe and pick up every weekend, but finally gave up.
