Title: The Best Dramatic Series in Television History
Review: The Sopranos is arguably the best dramatic series in television history. The writing, directing, acting, and character development in this show are brilliant, and stand quite apart from anything else on television. Despite quibbling among reviewers as to whether the second season is as good as the first, both stand head and shoulders above anything else on television, and are also superior to most cinematic films. It is curious that The West Wing seems to win more television awards than the Sopranos. I have seen both shows. The West Wing is an above average show, but is nothing exceptional. It is not even in the same league with The Sopranos. I suspect its "wins" are more the result of internal television politics than actual merit.
Is the review positive or negative?
