I plan to cancel (at least temporarily) my current HBO subscription sometime after Game of Thrones ends this summer. Anybody have some suggestions on what I should watch before that?

For the record, I've seen:

The Wire
The Sopranos
True Detective
Band of Brothers

Eastbound & Down. At least the first season. Funniest thing I've ever seen.

If you have Amazon Prime, you can watch most of HBO's content.

Rome

It's better than the other stuff listed imo, although it is all good.

Not including the stuff you've already seen. The Sopranos is GOAT

Silicon Valley... all episodes ...it is a legitamelty funny, lovable show. You will literally laugh out loud two to three times per episode.

The jinx. It's just a couple episodes, you could knock that out quick. We'll worth the watch.

Deadwood if you like westerns. Can't believe this only made it three seasons.

And definitely the Newsroom. I was %9? certain I was going to dislike this. Easily one of the best dramas of all time. The writing is incredible. Game of Thrones, season one of True Detective and The Newsroom would be my three favorite HBO series'.

Rome and John Adams are personal favorites of mine. Not action packed, but good historical drama.

Six feet under is underrated. Great dark drama with a lot of humor.

Boardwalk Empire, Veep, Deadwood, and Curb Your Enthusiasm are the best ones you haven't watched yet.


I really like Bored To Death and Flight of the Conchords as well. And since you've seen Band Of Brothers, The Pacific is really good as well.
