dvr this HBO, Sunday, March 9, 9 p.m. The season finale of this television season’s inarguably great drama is this weekend, and if you haven’t been watching, now is your time to catch up either on HBOGo or through other, less legal ways. Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson are detectives with the Louisiana state police…
dvr this HBO, Sunday, Jan. 19, 10:30 p.m. The widely promoted new HBO show Looking is about three gay men in San Francisco looking for love. The men (Jonathan Groff, Frankie J. Alvarez, Murray Bartlett) are very good looking and the show is explicit, so I’m betting the ratings will be high. However, I’m particularly…
Michael Douglas and Matt Damon in Behind the Candelabra dvd of the week Steven Soderbergh’s film about Liberace and his last lover, the young, blond and clueless Scott Thorson, was too gay and too sexy to be a feature film, supposedly.

dvr this HBO The season premiere of True Blood is June 16, and HBO is repeating the entire last season during the next two weeks. Now is your time to relive the most bat-shit-insane season of a series that has been rather bat-shit-insane since the beginning. The politics of vampires is central to the season,…
dvr this I haven’t seen it yet, because it’s on my DVR, but there’s hasn’t been a TV movie I have been so excited about in eons. Steven Soderbergh’s film about Liberace and his last lover, the young, blond and clueless Scott Thorson, was too gay and too sexy to be a feature film, supposedly….
dvr this: HBO, Sunday, April 7, 9 p.m. It’s back! HBO’s stupendous orgy of sex, violence and beards returned for its third season March 31, and for three months, we’ll have Sunday nights full of swords, sorcery, intrigue and dragons.
