Trueblood on HBO

The world of television entertainment has expanded greatly with the advent of satellite tv. This television viewing service has been the impetus for the expansion of television programming in terms of offering more entertainment options. It has reinforced the success of premium television channels like HBO and Showtime by giving them room to grow. These premium cable channels and others like them have been able to physically expand into a series of channels that each offers something for everyone. Now there are more channels and also more shows available for your viewing pleasure thanks to the innovation of satellite tv.

The way that this service has worked to broaden the options for tv viewers is that it offers space for more channels to be broadcasting. Successful cable channels like HBO, Showtime and Cinemax can take advantage of this expansion because they have the resources to create new programming and grow into these new channels. Satellite tv literally offers hundreds of channels that come in all different packages. You can have premium channels grouped together or you can pick and choose from the options each one has. As all of these premium channels specialize in airing original series and films, as well as popular syndicated shows and Hollywood films there are a lot of different directions that they have taken this expansion.

HBO has created several sister channels on satellite tv that offer specialized programming for different interests and age groups as well as channels focused on independent projects and films. HBO has branched out with a family channel, a channel dedicated to its original tv series and films, as well as more classic channels that offer comedy and drama programming for adults. Showtime has followed suit by offering several different sister channels that cater to different audiences and genres as well. It has been able to produce many poplar shows including The L Word, Dexter, The United States of Tara, and Weeds. Each of these shows is wildly popular with strong fan followings. As a result of this success they have been able to create offshoot channels that cater to specific populations including families, women and young people.

It is clear that with the continuing expansion of satellite tv the quality and choice of television programming options will only continue to grow. The previous success of premium cable channels like HBO, Showtime and Cinemax serve as a great springboard into the world of specialized programming. These channels have only begun to work with specialized programming as it is really just the tip of the iceberg. They have started the trend of creating quality programming that caters to more specific populations, thus creating a more personalized television viewing experience. This is where the future of television lies. It is creating a world of entertainment that really does offer something for everyone.
