I have to say it looks great.

Now HBO just has to bring Deadwood back and finish it properly.

Woke up early and watched the premiere.  Loved it.

Oh, I was just a regular-type dude with a big-derriere dick.

I started watching on HBOGo around 9:30 and it streamed perfectly, I even hooked up my laptop to the TV so I could watch on the big screen. Stayed in HD the whole time with no buffering.

Very different from the Game of Thrones streaming experience:

9:00 Log in
9:04 Start refreshing page
9:05 Episode becomes available, click "Play Title"
9:10 After period of buffering, credits begin to play choppily in 240p
9:17 Episode stops, loading wheel spins around for a while
9:20 Show resumes in 360p
9:29 Second loading wheel intermission
9:50 Show reaches 480p, last scene may or may not reach 720p
10:05 Ask myself why I can't just wait until Monday to watch this show

Isn't that based on the first few episodes.

You're right, it says "Four episodes watched for review" at the end.

Yeah I figured that was the case as most networks are very leery of giving out entire seasons even to critics, somehow they always find their way onto the internet.

didn't think it started that slow, the crime scene was bizarre.  I thought it was a great premiere, thoroughly interesting
