We got rid of HBO a few years ago in a cost saving measure. It seems like such a crazy move in retrospect, since Entourage and Big Love are two of my favorite shows. When we move in a couple of weeks I think it’s time to bring it back. Part of that reason is definitely Boardwalk Empire. The initial episode is being directed by Martin Scorsese and he and Mark Wahlberg are executive producers. The show will be written and produced by Terrance Winter who wrote about 20 episodes of The Sopranos, include one of my all time favorites “Pine Barrens.”

For those of you not interested in watching the trailer, the show is about Prohibition Era New Jersey.
