Even with the top three premium cable channels — HBO, Showtime and Starz — all investing in original series, their programming catalogs consist primarily of movies.

Counting both films and TV shows, Starz offers the most titles, with HBO a close second and Showtime a distant third, according to an analysis from MediaBiz.
