@TheTallMan35 It was a promo for "Blood Simple" the Coen Brothers' first movie. Highly, highly recommend watching it. The promo doesn't do it justice, it's an awesome film.

I Like the HBO Preview theme at the beginning. Watching an HBO film felt like an event back in the day. SOmetimes more is less, and less is more. 1986 - 36 Channels, 2011 - 900 Channels of Sh*t to choose from.

How has this never been released on DVD? I'd love to have the entire series!

What was the promo after Blackout?

This was around the time Conan O'Brien started writing for the show.
