We are thinking of getting Netflix. I was wondering if you can watch current HBO shows on there. My husband watched Game of Thrones last week at a hotel since he was out of town and wanted to continue watching it. I also like True Blood but we don't have HBO. Thanks!

So What Happened?

Thanks for the responses. I'll just wait for it to go on DVD. That's what I do with True Blood. I watch a lot of shows on the show's station or Hulu. I was just hoping. :)

Starz is the only episodes you can watch on Netflix but they have camelot and spartacus which are AMAZING, we have a PS3 and it's been awesome, we don't even use the DVD by mail part anymore! For $8 a month you can't beat it..

I would suggest netflix no matter what. I LOVE IT! It's soooooo worth the $15 I'm paying for. Not only does it have movies, tv shows, kids shows, BUT it has exercise videos!!! I discovered that and you can instant play them too! So if you want to try out several different kids you can try them there and not have to pay $15 each.
I know this wasn't answering your question at all, I just love netflix.

Netflix allows you to watch shows - just not current ones.

You can stream videos, shows, etc. but your tv must be hooked up to the internet.

Love how fast Netflix ships!!

LOVE netflix
Netflix gets things when it comes out on DVD. It's so worth the $ just for being able to stream movies to my computer ,internet connected tv or bluray player, I can pull up something for the kids when ever I want not have to worry about running to the video store.

We have a PS3, Wii and Computer (we connect it to the tv) and stream Netflix from any of these, we also get unlimited dvd rental (one at a time) for 9.99 a month ... we LOVE it. Our son can work it himself for when he wants to watch something but has no clue what he wants to watch (movie covers help him choose and we also have a list of movies we created) we can have a quick and easily called movie night where a BIG house is totally happy because we have a big selection right in front of us with out going to the store!

We have Netflix and you can watch the past seasons, but unless you get HBO, not the current seasons will not be available until a few months later. Maybe a few months for Fathers Day gift? Has your husband read the books? They are amazing.

My husband did purchase a ROKU a few weeks ago and is crazy about it.

You can see the shows off of HULU.. Have you tried HULU on your computer> It has lots of current shows on it. Glee, Modern Family, Parenthood.
Well this ROKU machine allows you to watch the Netflix selections that are downloadable and the HULU and other shows without having cable.

Not current, but recent. You can order old seasons, or watch them instantly while the new season is on h.b.o. and showtime. but you cant watch the brand new ones anywhere but their actual channels.

We watch a ton of shoes on there, but if it is the brand new season you have wait for it to come out on DVD, and have it sent. We just did that with Weeds, we watched the first 5 seasons on instant play and had 6 sent to us. They have a lot of good shows on both instant play and available through the mail.

Sadly no :( :( I LOVE my Netflix membership, but really wish there were ways to watch current shows. I don't think there is anyplace that you can watch programs from HBO online. If there were, then nobody would pay for their service.

You can get the DVDs of past seasons when they decide to release them to Netflix.
