Mine would have to be HBO. You can't beat those George Carlin specials!

Last favorite: Cinemax. Add more channels!

HBO hands down, the Sopranos, Six Feet Under ans Sex and the City are all outstanding.

Agreed, HBO is the best. Other than The Chris Isaak Show, there isn't much on Showtime that I watch...

I voted for HBO but it didn't win by much. It was a tough decision to choose between it & STARZ. HBO really only won due to HBO Comedy. As far as movies go, I would hate to be without STARZ as they seem to show just as many of rhe ones I want to see as HBO.

I enjoy HBO the most, basically just because of HBO Comedy. I am kinda disappointed though. You would think that they could strike a deal to add HBO Zone by now. Regardless of the denial they show, it actually has been requested by quite a few people. Also, for the love of GOD, make Cinemax at least half worth of what they charge for it. There are 6 or 7 new Cinemax channels out there, and they haven't even added ONE.

HBO is the most popular, however, I have heard customers say that Starz seems to be pretty good and not repeat as bad as Showtime package does. Cinemax is the least favorite because of it only having 3 channels.

I think HBO is the best, for their orginal series and movie selection. Showtime is a close second and Starz in a close third. Cinemax...well thats a few hundread miles back. A lot of the movies I have on DVD are on Sho, as I have more movies from Paramount then any other studio, I like Starz becasue it's something different and shows Univeral Studios productions.

Does HBO Zone show re-runs of Reverb? I miss that show, and I don't know why they took it off.
