I almost forgot the Shield. (I was thinking along the line of HBO dramas.) What an awesome show. Vic, played by Michael Chiklis, is definitely one bad man.

As for the Sopranos, unlike Nicky, I didn't mind season 5. I kind of enjoyed exploring the New York angle, it kinds of make the show fresh. To each to his own.

In my opinion, Season 3 and 4 were weak especially season 4. I cannot even remembered what happened except for Ralphie getting whacked.
