The Sopranos: The Test Dream (2004)
The single worst episode of The Sopranos, by far.
The dream sequences in the Sopranos are generally somewhat ridiculous but this episode takes it to a whole other level. In "The Test Dream" an intelligent and interesting show with incredible writing and acting and terrific characters turns into a stupid, slow, unrealistic, unending slog of a dream sequence. With all the other fascinating things going on in Tony's life, why do we need an hour full of crap? This episode is not interesting. It is not some example of creativity or art. Especially considering the fact that the following episode is so gut wrenching and nuanced and brilliant (it might in fact be the climax of the whole series) "The Test Dream" falls so far short of the quality of all the other episodes in The Sopranos that I'm shocked people enjoy this episode (and the dream sequences in general.) "The Test Dream" is almost unwatchable. The worst episode in the series, by a long shot.
