April 10-13: Free HBO and Cinemax Preview

Just in time for Episode #1 of season five of the Game Of Thrones blockbuster TV series, Uverse and select other cable systems will be offering a free 4-day weekend preview of HBO and Cinemax. The free preview runs April 10 (Friday morning) through April 13 (Monday night). You don’t have to do anything, the various HBO and Skinemax channels will get automatically unblocked (and then reblocked) by your cable box.

The time of this is perfect because many will try to sign up for HBO Now, and in case there are issues and problems, you can always fall back to the free preview on cable (assuming you have a cable system that is running this promotion).
