Oli,
I didn't have HBO until the 2nd or third (?) season. I had watched the first/second on video and immediately got HBO to continue watching. I was hooked.
Well, it was on at 9:00 p.m. EST but the West Coast HBO it was three hours later. I hated that I couldn't chime in and would check the board (without really reading the posts cause I didn't want to get any spoilers). I wanted to see how busy it was and it was always hopping. LOL HOWEVER, after doing that for I don't know how many weeks, I realized I had several HBO's that included the East Coast HBO which came on at 6:00 p.m. my time. Duh!!!!

I was so glad.
Maybe it's time for at least a Soprano's movie hu????? Call me sentimental, but I miss the ol gang of mafioso.
