    Settle a bet: HBO or Showtime

    The wife thinks Showtime is putting out the best TV shows. I say it's HBO and not even close.

    Showtime
    Shameless
    House of Lies
    Homeland
    Masters of Sex
    Dexter- the 2 or 3 good seasons

    HBO
    Game of Thrones
    Band of Brothers
    Boardwalk Empire
    The Sopranos
    The Wire
    True Detective
    Veep
    Treme
    Newsroom (kindof)
    Girls
    Extras
    Eastbound and Down
    Deadwood
    Curb


    Not even close right?

    Sopranos was the show that broke ground for the premium channel series becoming the hottest show on TV. you forgot Rome.

    I have HBO and I don't have Showtime. My wallet votes HBO.

    I have both and I like HBO better.

    You forgot Hello Ladies. Season 1 was hilarious. Don't know when/if there will be a season 2 though.

    Overall HBO, but I think The Tudors (Showtime) is my favorite show from the two networks.
