" We started this bracket with 16 exceptional seasons of new millennial TV drama. Now the field has been whittled down to four, after The Sopranos handily beat Justified, Game of Thrones knocked out Lost, Walter White outdid Don Draper, and Omar Little proved more well-liked than Friday Night Lights.  Specifically, we&amp;#039;ve now got two competitions, three HBO shows, one AMC series, and a quartet of television seasons that are top-to-bottom examples of rich, binge-worthy storytelling. Who gets to move on to the championship? You decide. Cast your votes by 5 p.m. EST on Monday, March 31, then visit Esquire.com on Tuesday, April 1, to see which two will battle for the right to be called Greatest Golden Age TV Drama Season. (Download a larger bracket here.)  So it&amp;#039;s come down to this: The third season of the HBO drama that ushered in a new era of anti-hero-focused TV narratives, versus the HBO drama that has generated the most buzz since... well, sinceThe Sopranos left the air. Both of these seasons feature plenty of carnage, loss of loved ones, and interfamilial strife. And when pitted together like this, they also raise the question: If locked in a room together, how would Tony Soprano and King Joffrey get along? Oh, we at Esquire would love to find out. But since that&amp;#039;s theoretically not possible, we&amp;#039;ll settle for seeing whom you, the readers, choose in this extremely well-matched battle between Bada Bing! And Baratheon. 1. Which is better...  What we have here is a competition between the best-ever TV show about the drug business and... the other best-ever TV show about the drug business. Oh, the agony of deciding this one, an agony that only intensifies when one considers that each of these seasons \u2014 The Wire&amp;#039;s focusing on Baltimore&amp;#039;s broken school system and Marlo Stanfield&amp;#039;s gang, among other things, and Breaking Bad&amp;#039;s on Walter&amp;#039;s downfall \u2014 is, inarguably, the best that each of these genre-elevating dramas ever produced. We suspect this is going to be a really close one, you guys. Ponder the choice carefully. And as always: tread lightly. 1. Which is better... "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
