In A Nutshell

Welcome to Sky Atlantic, the home of HBO's world class television.

This exciting new channel will bring you some of the most iconic shows in television.

From stunning new epics like Martin Scorsese's Prohibition-era drama Boardwalk Empire and fantasy drama Game of Thrones, to classic HBO original series The Sopranos and Six Feet Under, Sky Atlantic features the greatest acting, writing and directing talent from TV and film. Also debuting on Sky Atlantic will be the seventh series of Entourage, Treme (co-created by David Simon, the brains behind The Wire), new comedy How To Make It In America (from the producers of Entourage), and comedy-drama Weeds. In the future, the channel will premiere the brand new fifth series of Mad Men, as well as the highly anticipated Kate Winslet mini-series Mildred Pierce.

"This is must-see TV" say GQ, in their 100 Best Things In The World feature - and they're not wrong.

Not only will Sky Atlantic beam great new drama, documentaries, movies and more straight into your homes, but it will be the fastest way to keep up with the hottest new US releases.

This is no ordinary channel - Sky Atlantic is the exclusive home of breathtaking and groundbreaking television and is free to all Sky customers in the UK and Ireland in early 2011.
