Deadwood was overrated, the Dialog was absolutley FANTASTIC though. Lots of American-isms and ol western talk but in IAMBIC PENTAMETER!!!!!!!!! Crazy, and it all is if you pay attention.

The Wire and Sopranos are my favorite shows of all time, I like them more than my favorite movies. The Wire Seasons 4 and 5 and the Sopranos seasons 1,2,3,5,and 6 part 2 represent the most masterful pieces of work in the medium. Tony Soprano is the most fascinating chrachater of this millenium, and the Wire has the most fascinating ensemble of charachters I've ever seen. I've noticed people who talk shit on the sopranos are either A. just trying to prove how unique they are or B. watched 2 episodes that they didnt like that much, and decided the series was bad. I remember this one time I was watching the season 3 dvd and this kid goes, "Fuck sopranos", my roomate's friend or something. "The last episode when the guy had a heart attack (phil leotardo) and the guy with the nig nose was smoking drugs didnt even make sense!". So obviously he only watched Season 6 Part 1, of which was easily the weakest in the entire series, even though it made total sense as a "Calm before the Storm" before the 9 episodes of angst and brutality that made up part 2. Strangely though, the first part had the most on screen murders out of all the seasons, but the majority of the murderes were highly inconsequential. No Chrissy or Big Pussy-esque murders.

My biggest complaint about the Sopranos was the lack of follow up on Adriana. She was the biggest charachter on the show to ever get killed (screen time wise, ralphie, tony b, and pussy had more affect on tony). I was convinced that her body was going to get dug up at the site of Carmilla's spec house (where she was killed by Silvio prior to the building) which would explain Carm's dream she kept having about Ade visiting her in the house. and then, NOTHING, just Carmilla's mention of her guilt of accusing Christopher of the murder after his death.

I can go on and philosophize on both shows quite a bit, even more so than music. Ive watched both shows in thier entirety numerous times, and own every single season on DVD. Days of my life have been wasted on these shows.
