WOOT! Amazon now has HBO stuff!!

Boardwalk Empire, only season 1 is available for prime users. A lot of the stuff is like that, some seasons on prime, some you get to pay for or wait until they become available for prime users in a year or two, or three.

And of course, no Game of Thrones.

Basically, the rule of the thumb for HBO on Amazon prime is, if the the show wrapped up several years ago and was any good, you probably have already watched it once or twice through. If you haven't, it is probably a newer show and all the seasons aren't available on prime, if at all.

Three years is, I believe, the magic number.
 
Yeah, and FYI guys -- if you're a Prime member, Amazon is letting you try the FireTV risk free for 30 days with free return shipping if you don't want to keep it. If you keep it, they bill you $99 at the end of the 30 day window. I went ahead and ordered one yesterday.

Where did you see this promo? I have prime and don't see it mentioned anywhere on the site.

It's targeted, like many other Amazon promos. I didn't get it either.

Edit: I did get the 'Get Fire TV for 5 monthly payments of $19.80' thing though. Which I think is a better deal, and that I'd probably do.

I sold my apple tv 2 today for 190 bucks and bought a fire TV, cant wait to get it and load up XBMC and all the add ons and see how good it runs
 
After finishing S1 of The Wire, I fail to see how it is better than The Shield. It's decent, but nowhere near how good I heard it was. I'm going to finish it, but so far I would put it below The Shield, NYPD Blue, and L&O
