From what I saw of the Sopranos I liked a lot. It was very well written and acted, whereas Jack Bauer is just a rude and selfish bastard. He doesn’t answer the phone, he just screams “BAUER!” Plus, he is really arsed that his family are in trouble, yet he shows no connection with all the people he kills…no one ever thinks of the henchmens family! I think that the whole “Men want to be him, women want to sleep with him’ thing is really annoying too.

Series like the Sopranos etc, had a story with follows the progression of it’s characters… like LOST. 24 is focused more on keeping up the action and the pace, and not about much else.

I liked 24, as it was just kinda no-brained fun, and that’s all it’s meant to be, so yes… I don’t really have a problem with it, i just think the premise has gotten a little old now.

Did Sopranos ever run its course? In my opinion it had a lot of fight still left.

How about Star Gate, Buffy or the star treks and spin offs? They run far longer and retain interest and a strong fan base.

Has Lost lost it? I dont think so as it had a pre-set story line that hasnt run yet (Though its obvious some episodes were unnecessary).

Prison Break on the other hand really only had the first season planned out. Saying that, Im a prison break fan but for all the wrong reasons. I think its terribly acted and has so many loop hopes it has turned into a comedy by mistake (which makes it better in a bizarre way).

Anyway. Im a fan of well thought out series with good script, sound and camera work. Im not a fan of home made celebs and unscripted tv

fair enough if you arnt a fan of cop action drama.

I’ll say no more so I dont die a horrid realistic death.
