What this means for us is plenty of upcoming reruns and cheap midseason replacements. I thought I would take a little retrospective journey through what shows I ve enjoyed these past few weeks and what shows have managed to lose my loyalty. And while we re at it, I thought I d pop in a few non-traditional cable shows that I have enjoyed whose schedules generally don t follow the networks when it comes to reruns. Easily my favorite show in recent memory.
Every episode is fantastic.
A dark drama that explores the life a mobster, it is impeccably written, filmed, and acted. By now you ve probably caught a bit of the Soprano s hype, believe every word of it. This is a show that delivers. By being on HBO, the writers are free of the ridiculous constraints put on network television, and that s part of the reason this show works so well. Hey, screw you buddy .
