who said those parts were funny?  i said it had some good comedy in it..i gave u a few examples, and you take it as "the whole show is jokes". 

regardless, ONE episodes DOESNT make OR break a series, and even tho this episode isnt the greatest, it still shits on 99% of TV. 

THE SOPRANOS > _________

Yup, The Sopranos can and never will be equaled, there is absolutely no doubt about it.  Shallow all you ever do is bring up the Columbus day ep, yeah it definitely was not one of my favorite episode's but whats the big deal about it?  And it's only 1 episode, my only complaint ever about Sopranos was in season 6 they had that Vito storyline go on for way to long but even with that 1 complaint, this is still the best series ever and there will never be another series better.

The Vito storyline was another low that the Wire had never reached. Forgot about that one.


Anyway, the point of Columbus Day and Vito was the point I brought up in the beginning; that Sopranos highs may been as good or better than the Wire's, but the lows were much lower. The question wasn't "is Sopranos a great show?", it was "Is it better than the Wire?", and I gave my reasons for The Wire. I'll state them again; The good parts of The Sopranos are just as good as the good parts of The Wire, but he pad parts of the Sopranos are more common and much worse than the bad parts of The Wire. The Wire has it's faults too, and if anyone were to call it flawless I could come back with an essay if I wanted to and make it seem like a bad show, but I'd still call it the best TV has ever seen thus far.

Cant stand Lost personally its like a real life version of Dragon Ball Z IMO.... takes 6 episodes to tell a story sort of thing!!!
Anyways out of these two id pick Sopranos... I watched every single episode and could have kept going and still been good! the wire is good too but not AS good :)
