true, but they also haven't made well received shows the last few years
Hung is panned by critics, Entourage has been the last few years (even though I liked it during that time), I liked How to make it in America as well but I don't think it got a lot of press from critics
John from Cincinnati was very bad I thought
They used to be the network of the "best" shows on TV when it had the Sopranos, the Wire, Six Feet Under
now AMC has Mad Men, Breaking Bad (and Rubicon which has potential)
Showtime has Dexter
The best show they have in terms of quality is probably True Blood, but even that has almost as many detractors as it does people who like it
HBO has been struggling lately was the only point I was trying to make
