Oh. FGT I love The Sopranos. It took my DH years to convince me to watch it. I became obsessed! I got so invested in the characters that I even loved the nasty ones. I still Google the actors occasionally to see what has happened to them (sad). I am fascinated that Stevie Van Zandt is in The E Street Band.

Loved the Sapranos. Also loved Ray Donovan.

BB is right up there as one of my all-time favourites, but I did like El Camino and BCS too. Fantastic writing and acting in all three.

The Sopranos was marvellous too wasn’t it? More great acting, plot and dialogue.
The litmus test for me watching a drama is can I forget it’s acting and really lose myself in it.
Recently watching the new King And Conquerer I felt, shrug…it’s acting and not great dialogue and ropey sets.

Thanks Oreo.

I too loved BB.
And BCS.

However my all time best series is still The Sopranos! I bought the box set of DVDs last year and will binge watch, sometime in the future.

I have watched all of them and think they are excellent! 😎

If you enjoyed the series Breaking Bad ( seriously good!) then watch the film El Camino, which follows Jesse Pinkman to Alaska.
The next good watch following that is Better Call Saul, which is a prequel serious where the lawyer Saul does his usual stuff before ending up in an office in New Mexico for the Breaking Bad series.Some really excellent acting.Netflix btw.
