The Far Pavilions

HBO's very first miniseries is missing from this list, The Far Pavilions (1984) which was a huge deal at the time in terms of scope and cost ($12M).

Also missing is the reason I discovered this poor excuse of a list, an Australia-set miniseries about paddle boats at the turn of the century with a female protagonist also from the mid-80's. Perhaps someone else can provide the name and insert both into this woeful list.

Found it: All the Rivers Run which also aired in 1984, however it was originally made for Australian TV as 2 separate mini-series. RoyBatty42 (talk) 09:07, 31 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Adam Mazer, who won an Emmy last year for penning the HBO made for TV movie You Don't Know Jack, has made a deal to write a pilot for the network based on Susanna Moore's book The Big Girls, which Joel Schumacher is in discussions to direct. Electus' Ben Silverman and Original Media's Charlie Corwin are producing. The novel centers on a young psychiatrist at a maximum security women's prison who attempts to treat the criminally insane while dealing with her own damaged psyche. Think: female version of Oz. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.70.76.149 (talk) 23:51, 29 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Kids in the Hall?

Any particular reason Kids in the Hall isn't on this list, which is supposed to be rather complete? --24.46.117.162 (talk) 22:43, 23 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Added. Thanks for the heads up. Msw1002 (talk) 23:09, 23 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency

Why is it that The No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency is not included in the list of former HBO programs? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.170.229.159 (talk) 12:29, 11 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Miniseries and FIlms

I think the Past section should split off the miniseries and films. Jmj713 (talk) 18:57, 22 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
