The Wire is behind the Sopranos, as is every TV show ever made.

The Yanks make the best TV.

Dexter
Deadwood
Rome
The Walking Dead
Fringe
Boardwalk Empire
Band Of Brothers
The Pacific
Battlestar Galactica (the newer one)
The West Wing
Murder One


Potentially "Game of Thrones" could be as good as these too.
And the list goes on.

They sure do Dev <ok>

I've just started watching Battlestar Galactica on Sky Atlantic. I had to borrow the mini series to get up to speed with series 1 ep 1. It's a cracking show and bring up a few moral dialemma's plus the Big Blonde Cylon burd's a ride <ok>

I totally missed the boat with Fringe but I'm considering buying the box set <ok>

I've got Game of Thrones to watch but I might give it a miss. We all know the US have no qualms in ditching a show mid series which is a bummer. Well the problem is the show is based on a series of books called "Song of Ice and Fire". When I say a series of books I mean and unfinished series of books which the authour doesn;t seem to be finishing any time soon if at all.

DOes anyone know if Dexter is coming back on for a 5th series?
 
What really swings it for me is the humour of the Sopranos, not to say the Wire was not funny at times, it was just very very bleak. That's one of it's strengths too but if it was not so depressing then I might have agreed to a point.

For me personally though The Sopranos is better.

me too (but for series 3, isn't that when Tony has loads of weird dreams and it gets quite surreal?), the character development is absolutely brilliant - ALL THE MAIN CHARACTERS! An amazing achievement
 
If you guys ever have a few hours to kill you should watch all of Trailer Park Boys, I consider it the best series ever made. Also Breaking Bad (with the Dad in Malcolm in the Middle as a Meth maker) is a great show, season 4 is starting in a few months. Spartacus is also a laugh, and some of the women in it are pretty special (and frequently topless).

I'm in <ok>
 
Don't really care for the Wire, Lost, 24,...All those overhyped US shows always drag on too long and repeat themselves 43848548343486478646843 times for the ******ed yank viewers with no attention span.
 
Spartacus is a bit of fun but it's not in the same class as the other shows I mentioned.

Dunno, Dexter isn't anything special nor is Rome. I found the Pacific really boring, depends what you want in a series really...I'm not against character development, but it can't take the place of storyline/entertainment.
 
Michael Jackson is dead, but Pavarotti is still doing the car insurance adverts on T.V. so I'm pretty sure he is still alive.

Pavarotti is pretty dead, unless you're trying to be funny, but nothing about those adverts is funny
 
I thought the pacific was disappointing. I watched to episode 6 and then stopped. Still got the rest on my planner taking up memory <grr>

Watched the first episode of thrones last night and thought it was alright, hopefully we will see incest birds tits soon <laugh>

Started watching the sopranos from series 1 but not had time to keep up to date with it because of studying, hospital and volunteering <grr>

Best show about is undoubtably NCIS:Los Angeles <ok>
