You're in for a treat my friend. One of the better TV Series I've ever had the pleasure of watching. Great television.

AMC is developing a series based on GoodFellas. Can't wait for that one.

Love, love FNL.

I think I might watch it again soon.

I ditched the Roku and have Apple TV now, but I have the HBO to go app on the iPad.

I like it just for the integration with iTunes, and you can stream all your photos. I've gotten into downloading shows more and more, so it's nice to be able to watch them on the TV vs my iPad all the time. Plus it has YouTube.

Not sure if you've ever had this, but I was always having connection issues with the Roku. Sometimes I couldn't get it to connect to my network no matter what, other times it would work just fine. Apple TV just works, I haven't had any problems with it.

Not a single problem with the Roku, though it is ten feet from my dual band N router.

Sounds cool. Been impressed with AMC's original programming. Check out "Kill the Irishman" if you haven't. Great mobster flick based on true events.

HBO GO is going to be available through Xbox Live this year. I'm pretty excited about this. Unfortunately I have an Android tablet, so I can't get the HBO GO app (damn you Apple).

Napolean Dynamite on Fox... Eh.. It has its moments. I can see this getting cancelled though.
