There’s something for everyone on HBO if you ask me. Take a look at the latest trailers for two of their best shows, very different. Get ready for an all new season of Eastbound & Down, premiering Sunday, February 19. Game of Thrones begins season 2 on April 1st, and HBO has released the new season’s most explicit trailer to date.
Enjoy both below:
Deadline has reported on the HBO premiere schedule and it’s good, obviously. Returning for one final turn at bat, Danny McBride in Eastbound & Down will air on February 19th. Right after that awesome show, we have Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant’s Life’s Too Short (check out all our coverage). I’ve been a big fan of Eastbound & Down since the beginning, and waiting over a year between seasons hasn’t been easy. It will be sad to see them go. I have been watching Life’s Too Short and will likely end up watching it again when it finally airs on HBO. It’s a solid return to TV for the comedy team, and Warwick Davis will likely get a deserving Emmy or Glob nomination here.
Watch below:
Here’s a clip from Life’s Too Short, the new BBC series from Ricky Gervais, Stephen Merchant, and Warwick Davis. Here we see Liam Neeson announce that he wants to start his own career in comedy, and has a go at some improv. We know Neeson is a badass (see him here fighting wolves), but who knew he could be this funny? You will have to watch to see how good he is at being bad at it…yeah.
“Life’s Too Short” premiered on BBC Two on Nov. 10, and focuses on the 3 foot, 6 inch actor Warwick Davis, who plays a fictionalized version of himself. HBO will broadcast the series next year after its BBC run.

Here is preview video from BBC’s upcoming show Life’s Too Short created by Ricky Gervais, Stephen Merchant and Warwick Davis. The video below shows Davis introducing Depp to Gervais, there seems to be heat between the two after Gervais’ Golden Globes jokes aimed at the star. Forget the Tim Allen burn, I love that someone took a dig at Tim Burton casting his wife in everything he does. Watch below:

Boardwalk Empire will return for a third season reports Deadline. The second season still holds strong on Sunday nights for HBO and has become required viewing in my TV line-up. The show performed well at the recent Emmy Awards winning eight awards. It has one of the best cast and crews on any TV show today with Steve Buscemi, Kelly Macdonald, Michael Pitt, Terence Winter, Martin Scorsese, Tim Van Patten, Stephen Levinson and Mark Wahlberg.
I can’t wait to see where the show is going to go as the 1920′s progresses; talking movies were invented in 1923, J. Edgar Hoover was appointed FBI director in 1924, and Hitler publishes Mein Kampf in 1925. Needless to say, as long as the show keeps going, it’s got nothing to worry about for historical material.
The kids these days may know him as the man with the Tiger in The Hangover, but people as old as me remember him as “The Baddest Man on the Planet”. I’m talking about Mike Tyson, who’s life is being brought to HBO in the form a of a TV series.
THR reports that the network has ordered a pilot for Da Brick, which is “loosely based on Tyson’s early life in the ring and “will reflect aspects of Tyson’s upbringing”. The project is to be directed by Spike Lee and John Ridley will write and serve as showrunner. The show will take place in Newark, N.J., which is often dubbed “Brick City”. If you need some Tyson to hold you over until this project arrives, check out James Toback’s 2008 documentary Tyson, it’s fantastic.
