The OFFICIAL DISH / HBO Thread

Your wife is more agreeable than mine.

My life would be so much easier if I could link Prime with GO. I lost it on GO when I got rid of Comcast. Grandma's TV just dumped HBONOW, but had it when I decided to get rid of CC and get a NOW account. All the other TV have it. So being able to link GO with Prime would be so nice.

I just saw DISH still listed under other providers as a provider . . . Trying to use DISH as a provider failed. But they have everybody else on and in the planet listed.

Now I'm being very quiet in the hope that this continues, but I have been able to log into HBONOW with Prime. OR I hope I have . . . hope it didn't renew my expired subscription!
 
Or get your wife into programming on Starz at a discounted $5 a month,
 
This is certainly what Dish would like subscribers to do. They even put a slide in the Hopper screensaver to promote The Spanish Princess, with posters for other Starz series in the corners.

Unfortunately my wife’s attention span won’t support another series. My attention getter on STARZ is Counterpart, which unfortunately won’t start a new season till next year.

I enjoyed this show too. However, they did (if I remember correctly) wrap a shiny bow around the current story-line so at least we're not left with major lingering questions.
Yes, they only left a few story-lines unresolved, including one major one, in case someone wanted to pick the series up...but unfortunately, that didn't happen...
 
Chernobyl was a good mini series, so was the Young Pope, that's set to return with a different name on HBO. GoT has run it's course, now what will happen with Westworld? As for earlier comments about people remembering where they were on 9/11, I was installing cable TV and internet that day. of course the first channel everybody was tuned to was CNN, even if you didn't subscribe to it, it was open to everyone. And the images of the towers collapsing has been burned into my brain that I literally get nausea and dizzy, when I ever see that again.

According to the latest uplink report, a little over an hour ago Dish finally removed the HDNet Movies from channels 300 and 310. INFO channel 301 has been changed from an ad for HBO Now to an ad for the Third Annual Kids Binge-a-Palooza. Channels 310 and 311 no longer appear in my Guide at all. I have a theory that this is exactly what AT&T has been waiting for: for Dish to remove all signs that HBO and Cinemax were ever in the 300's, admit that the channels are not coming back, and "permanently" lower the price of America's Everything Pack. Then, a few months later, after subscribers have gotten used to seeing the lower rate on their bills, AT&T will gladly reach a deal to return HBO and Cinemax to Dish, forcing Dish to announce a huge price increase. (Even though it would actually be putting the price back where it was before.) At least, that is the way it worked with the Univision dispute. Univision waited for Dish to "permanently" lower the price of the Latino packages, and then reached a deal with Dish a few months later, forcing Dish to announce a price increase for those packages to reverse the decrease that had been made due to the lack of Univision.
 
Well, with today's uplink report, INFO channel 300 was changed back to HDNet Movies, so that may be staying there for a little while longer. Channel 310 is still gone, though, so apparently Dish does not feel that they need a replacement channel for Cinemax any longer.
 

I knew it was still on 300 around midnight (EST) last night when I was flipping through channels. As I've stated earlier in this thread, I really hope they decide to leave HDNet Movies in this slot, or at least somewhere in the movie channel block.

Is Dish going to drop HDNet from the Top 200 package or is it permanent? I didn't have it until the HBO fiasco and it's still there on channel 130.
