    "started to turn more into a soap."

    That's what happens with most American TV. Starts out okay but quickly turns into a drama which is more concerned about the characters and their "issues" and ends up as little more than a glossy soap opera.

    Tony Soprano: [over the phone] It's a bad connection so I'm gonna talk fast! The guy you're looking for is an ex-commando! He killed sixteen Chechen rebels single-handed!
    Paulie 'Walnuts' Gualtieri: Get the **** outta here.
    Tony Soprano: Yeah. Nice, huh? He was with the Interior Ministry. Guy's like a Russian green beret. He can not come back and tell this story. You understand?
    Paulie 'Walnuts' Gualtieri: I hear you.
    [hangs up]
    Paulie 'Walnuts' Gualtieri: You're not gonna believe this. He killed sixteen Czechoslovakians. Guy was an interior decorator.
    Christopher Moltisanti: His house looked like ****.

    Exactly. I mean take Dallas. Started off as a drama about oil and big business. Ended up with Bobby Ewing having a dream in the shower.

    What the ****?

    I watched a banged up abroad a while back, was a Henry Hill special not exactly sure how it's being banged up abroad though, i mean henry hill was american and he was held in US jails so?

    I'm not so sure the new show will be as popular, it will have to do well to knock off Boardwalk Empire just now as the top crime show.

    On the subject of TV shows does anyone watch Californication? if not give it a watch its funny as ****, at least 1 pair of tits in every episode as well <ok>

    Its good.

    Second season is quite good, some pretty ****ed up parts and the finale has quite a twist.

    It was also a decent song by Red Hot Chillies, no mention of nudity and shagging though.,
