The Sopranos
I've never seen this, but have always meant to give it a go. Has it aged well? Is it worth getting into now so many years after it ended? I've got similar worries about Boardwalk Empire, another I mean to watch.
If I could get lucky I'd secede from the states

Re: The Sopranos
No idea how it's dated, Arty, but when I see the odd clip on youtube, it still looks fairly fresh, though you can tell it's of its time.
As a comparison, a couple of years ago, I rewatched 'The Wire' completely and it was still great and it's of a similar period. That's definitely worth a go if you haven't seen it.

Maybe she's born with it, maybe it's Maybelline.

Re: The Sopranos
The Sopranos is the ultimate television series – way ahead of its time; nothing compares, even now.

The good news is, it's well worth watching. The bad news is, you've left it far too late now.Arty Morty wrote: ↑Wed May 08, 2024 3:35 pm I've never seen this, but have always meant to give it a go.
You could always "binge-watch" it, as I believe young people call it, but then it would all merge into one giant mess of confusion.
Some things are meant to be watched one episode, once a week. That's how I watched it, savouring the anticipation of seeing how things would play out. You don't really get that with binge-watching, which I'm assuming you'll do.
To mis-quote Woody Allen ... "I took a speed-reading course and read War And Peace in five minutes ... it's about Russia"
So, anyway ... watch one episode a night, and bear in mind that's it's actually a sitcom
No, really. just trust me on that.
