New HBO series.
Oct. 4th, 2007 06:18 pmSo, what is HBO giving us instead of those Deadwood movies or a third season of Rome?
A new biker show from the screenwriter who had a one-hit wonder with The Player*, but whose other classics include Gleaming the Cube, Deep Impact, and Changing Lanes.
And a "near-future" medical series from the guy whose sole claim to fame is writing the high-concept Tommy Lee Jones/Cedric the Entertainer classic, Man of the House.
As far as stuff worth watching, that pretty much leaves the inconsistent Real Time with Bill Maher, and Big Love, which doesn't come back until June.
Meanwhile, some other cable network has Dexter, Californication, Weeds, Meadowlands, The Tudors, and Penn and Teller: Bullshit!
*Assuming, of course, that we don't just give the credit to Robert Altman.
