TikiBarTV.com

While listening to TWiT, a podcast I listen to regularly, I heard about a video podcast that sounded like fun called Tiki Bar TV. Since there’s nothing worth watching on HBO these days, I figured I’d give it a shot.

Bottom line is…these guys (Lala too!) had me LMAO :-) Definately not something to watch when Bryanna’s around, but I watched through the whole backlog and will continue to watch as they’re produced. I’m also learning alot about the science of “Mixology” if there’s such a word.

If I can find enough of these web based TV shows to keep me amused, then who knows…maybe we can cancel cable altogether (other than the high speed internet).

Just remembered, I really like “Lucky Louie” — but also Cancelled by HBO

I was looking for any excuse not to drop HBO after the final episode of Rome. I thought I had come up with it when I remembered Lucky Louie. A quick google search shot down this theory as well.

All I can say is, WTF! There really is no reason to stay. Grumph.

Rome, Deadwood, Cancelled by HBO?

Filed under: Random — john @ 7:55 pm

While the Soprano’s was the reason we signed up for HBO (back around Season 5), I’ve really enjoyed two other HBO Series: Rome and Deadwood. I was shocked when I read they have both been cancelled! Rome is the only show that I specifically watch each week, and I will miss it in a big way, sigh.

Now the question is: Is there anything else on HBO that is compelling enough to make me want to keep paying? I really don’t think so. Even the Sopranos has lost its allure.

Goodbye HBO.
