Title: The Sopranos - modern Hamlet Post by: tantrum on January 18, 2008, 10:28:22 PM I have bought the whole series of the Sopranos. I saw few of the episodes before but never watched it from the start. What a treat. The writing, directing, acting; the whole lot is absolutely superb. It reminds a bit of Hamlet. Any one else a big fan of the Sopranos?

The writers strike has killed off all my current shows. Title: Re: The Sopranos - modern Hamlet Post by: ifm on January 18, 2008, 11:04:05 PM Californication, recently shown on CH 5..v v good too Excellent isn't it? Look out for Dirty Sexy Money and Madmen when they get over here, both very good. Title: Re: The Sopranos - modern Hamlet Post by: Ginger on January 18, 2008, 11:18:09 PM Gave up on Madmen after about 5 shows, I just couldn't get into it.
Damages was excellent throughout, and I believe I read it was returning next season. Californication, Pushing Daisies, Dexter.... some good TV around - damn that writers strike! Title: Re: The Sopranos - modern Hamlet Post by: ifm on January 18, 2008, 11:34:01 PM Gave up on Madmen after about 5 shows, I just couldn't get into it. Lost returns in 2 weeks!!!!!!!!damn that writers strike!
