I need to get into it. Haven't seen one second of the show, but I hear great things. Doubt I could love it more than The Shield or The Sopranos (cept for the rather lacking 6th season) though.

The Drug Kingpin Avon Barksdale is based off of a real life character the city of baltimore took down in the 80's I think.

It's only the best show on TV because Vic Mackey happens to be off the air-waves at the moment.

Did you start with Season 1?

From what I understand, the past couple of seasons have been lackluster (I haven't seen any of them, myself), so if you started with Season 5 or 6, that might be it - give Season 1 a try and see what you think.

Unless you started with Season 1. In that case, feel free to hate the show.

I started Sopranos with the first episode and found it more often than not just completely boring. After the first season I found myself more and more often playing computer games or surfing the net while watching it.
