Got one more episode of S2 Californication, it started off a bit slow but has gotten better towards the end. Season one is better of course. Does watching Hanks failings as a family man sometimes leave you cringing? Knowing that no matter how many women you can wooo into bed, if you let a REALLY REALLY good one get away you will be empty. Or am I looking too deep into a show that should be about nothing more than a writer who has lost his way.../After I am done with this, its on to Dexter which I now have season one and two of, it better live up to the hype guys.

sopranos is hella overratedcompletely unjustified hype. it got all its acclaim when tv was sh*t is my conclusionthe new gen tv shows sh*t over it.
6pw8yo.gifPost is baffling, especially the underlined. I'm not the biggest Sopranos fan but it held its own for years as genuinely one of the best shows out with The Wire, West Wing, 24, The Shield, Deadwood and ER in their primesI'd say that TV quality is markedly down since the conclusions of Sopranos, The Wire and The Shield, three of the best dramas everWhat 'new gen' TV shows are superior to Sopranos, out of interest?

I agree that Sopranos became a huge pop culture phenomenon in a way that The Wire and Shield never did, and in that respect it's overrated by mainstream audiences (though The Wire has sorta become an after-the-fact classic thanks to internet)But it arrived with a bang and remained a first-rate show until after Season 4, when it began a slight decline and The Wire arrivedWhich new gen shows do you rate more?

Some shows for you to check out.The Pacific - March 14th (US); Sky Movies Premiere/HD from Spring (UK)A 10-part mini-series from the creators of "Band of Brothers" telling the intertwined stories of three Marines during America's battle with the Japanese in the Pacific during World War II.Boardwalk Empire - Late 2010 (US); TBC (UK)Chronicles the life and times of Nucky Thompson, the undisputed ruler of Atlantic City, who was equal parts politician and gangster. Terence Winter and Martin Scorsese executive producers.The Pillars Of The Earth - Second half of 2010; TBC (UK)The Pillars of the Earth is set against a backdrop of war, religious strife and power struggles which tears lives and families apart. In that time, there rises a magnificent Cathedral in Kingsbridge. Against the backdrop, love-stories entwine: Tom, the master builder, Aliena, the noblewoman, the sadistic Lord William, Philip, the prior of Kingsbridge, Jack, the artist in stone work and Ellen, the woman from the forest who casts a curse. At once, this is a sensuous and enduring love story and an epic that shines with the fierce spirit of a passionate age. Follett masterfully weaves these stories through political turmoil of 12th century England, creating a relevant and viable world for today's audience and for generations to come
