Wire! My sister-in-law played a dead hooker on the Wire. The role suited her.

Reminding me to start watching the wire.

I keep thinking that I maybe should watch this

no Deadwood? wtf

I'm going to assume this is USA only? Hi I'm from Canada

Sounds interesting. It still sucks that you can't buy a full season at once.

This is good news but I have just one question. 
 
Where's Wallace at String? 
 
WHERE'S WALLACE?

Shame I already have most of those on DVD.
 
By the way, the GeeksOfDoom fellows got it wrong about Game of Thrones, they filmed pilot last year and the show got greenlight on that.  Filming on the first season begins in July I think.  I can't wait, combining two of my favourite things: HBO drama series and A Song of Ice and Fire.

Thank god now i can get true blood season 3 as the episodes air, itunes offer god awful HD versions compared to the PS store, might get the pacific as well if they offer it.
 
Just picked up True Blood S2 on Blu-Ray today can't wait for S3 to hit PSN.

OMAR'S COMING OMAR'S COMING ... to PS3. 

I don't know why you would buy episodes of a TV series individually, unless it's a miniseries like Lonsome Dove.

I've really wanted to get into both The Wire and Eastbound and Down (though I guess, the latter is a little too short to "get into") but I'm not willing to pay $2 per episode for any show. That's way too steep.

Apologies, if this has been brought up before...but this probably US only right? Or can we Canadians get this as well?

That's way too much to pay per episode... 

Meh, the pricing is why I don't buy tv from itunes. 
 
Now, if Xbox got a hulu application... yumm.. 
 
But HBO is very stingy with their shows, you can either subscribe to them with out cable provider, or buy the shows on DVD. I am currently waiting for Dexter season 3... soo long.

I'm a Canadian, and I get screwed with this stuff.

Anyone who thinks $1.99/$2.99 is too much for one episode of these awesome shows is a foolish fool of a Took.
 

wait a minute! 1.99, 2.99? thats not FREE!

Who's Brad Nicholson?

Don't really see the point of paying per episode for TV series over just buying the dvd sets.

Interesting...  My Netflix que is full of HBO shows yet to be released.  If I can get them now via PSN I will gladly pay.

You can get The Wire box set in Amazon for 130 which is only 2 dollars an episode. Worth every penny BTW.

Sheiiiiiiiit...

Everyone should see The Wire.  It's HBO at it's best. 
 
When will this come to the 360???

I'd just stream them for free, but that's just me.

My day just instantly went from 40 to 60 degrees.

" Don't really see the point of paying per episode for TV series over just buying the dvd sets. "

Eastbound and Down... I can finally get my Jody Hill fix somewhere else :D

YOU CAN'T FIGHT FIRE AND FIRE!

'The Wire' is too good a show for the human race to enjoy.

I just use Rogers on Demand and get this all for free (paying for the cable service, but have to pay for internet too). I'm in Canada so can't get this off the PS3 anyway, but I'd rather have the rogers service of free than 'for a price'.

 $1.99 per episode. ... ehhhh naw 

In HD or not?

I love how people are complaining about this feature as if Sony is trying to wedge them into some sort of corner. 
Stop trying disguise the fact that they are simply providing an alternative way to watch the shows you already enjoy. 
 
No one cares if your way is "better" or that you don't want your HDD to be cluttered. It's just an alternative.

Like I'll say for all micropayments like this where you could possibly find it for free somewhere else at another time:
 
It's nice to have the option, and if you don't want it, don't buy it. Giving people options and it costing you next to nothing to do it is always good business.

" Sheiiiiiiiit... "

Sounds interesting, the Wire box set is still rather expensive. Amazing show though. 

YAY for file sharing.

You can't subscribe like people have been doing through cable since forever? This kind if integration is a great idea but I'll jump on the wagon when it's the same price as an HBO subscription.

I would totally pay an extra $X.XX per month if Netflix offered HBO via streaming.  Pay-per-episode?  Not so much.

So at $2 - $3 an episode I'm looking somewhere between $24 - $36 for a 12 episode season? I know there's the convenience of having it there to watch instantly, but I'm not sure that convince equates to a price that is marginally less than a box set of that same season.  
 
Oh well, I don't live in the US, so I'm sure I'll never even see an option to watch HBO on my PS3.
