Review of The Sopranos

The Sopranos (1999– )
Quite Simply, The Best Drama on TV. Period.
29 December 2002
This show is amazing for 4 main reasons.

THIS SHOW IS *NOT* FOR KIDDIES. BE A RESPONSIBLE PARENT AND KEEP THE CHILDREN OUT OF THE ROOM WHILE YOU WATCH IT. DON'T LET HBO GET SUED BECAUSE SOME KNUCKLEHEADED KID SHOOTS ANOTHER KID BECAUSE HE SAW IT ON THE SHOW.

1 The acting is supurb. While the actors play stereotypes of mobsters, each develops a personality of their own. Each character is believable as a real person without the over-use of method acting.

2. A different director each episode keeps the show fresh.

3. The show itself allows the viewer to question what exactly a family is. How the patriarch keep them together? To which family is he loyal? Issues of faith, loyalty, friendship are explored.

4. Humor, often dark allows for some levity.

I have not seen season 4, but the first three are great.
