E - They meld in all of the associtaed events in the mobster world. I like the fact that it's not just T&A and bone breaking, it makes it more realistic and gets away from the stereotypical mobster storylines. The lives of the mobster's families are an often overlooked piece of the story that is crucial to understanding the entire world as a whole.

These are some of the reasons that the show is so good and has won so many awards, it captures the internal struggle of Tony and his family, not just T&A and leg breaking.

That's my two cents...

sopranos, without question.
dont have cable but sometimes i drag the tv/vcr into my smoking chambers and chain smoke cigars while watching numerous episodes in a row. big fun!

Definitely the Sopranos. I watch it every week. However, check out Boomtown if you get the chance...it's a pretty good show.

Ditto on Boomtown. Reminds me of the Japanese movie "Rashomon".

I think The Shield beats them all hands down, followed by The Sopranos.

Yeah Rookie, considering the source! Of course you would! LOL!

I used to watch NYPD all the time,have never even watched one minute of the Sopranos,I do like what I've seen of the Sheild.

OH BTW I'd rather watch any old John Wayne movie over any of this crap.

I'm like Rainman,

The baddest cop ever in movies, tv, or in real life is Barney Fife (sp?). We wanted him for police commissioner here in Philly but he held out for two bullets and lost the job. JonR

Remember the show when Barney bought the old WWI motorcycle with the sidecar? He was ticketing the truckers on the interstate!!!!! Hilarious!!! Always loved Barney, one of my all time favorite TV characters!
