HBO's deal gives them a clear runway and a buffer to build that pipeline and it's shows like Hausen, Das Boot, Domina and Django that really suggest the future of Sky Atlantic as the primary home for high end drama ordered by Sky Studios, made across the UK/IE, Germany and Italy but serving all of those territories.
I’m sure you are right, but the name ‘Atlantic’ would no longer be appropriate.

To be honest, they could put all the Sky Studios stuff on Sky One and drop some of the dross. That would make it a pretty good channel.
