This weekend my cable TV provider is offering free access to HBO & Cinemax programming, and the promotion just confirmed my belief that I don't want or need this stuff. There are a bunch of channels offering the same stuff at different times. And the movies are mostly mediocre.
Not much better than watching the same old Adam Sandler movies shown over and over again on basic cable. Not just Adan Sandler -- there are other movies shown repeatedly on basic cable -- you know what I mean. I'd rather watch Turner Classic Movies, PBS documentaries, and lots of good DVDs I borrow from the library.
