I haven't actually watched the whole thing, just tons of clips on youtube. But it's poorly written, just a bunch of random things happening

Me either. A couple episodes of a fat piece of shit whining to his therapist about ducks and shit was all I needed.

It improves, you get to see his whore wife and retard son whine to therapists a bit too if you watch until the end

Be me.
Deadwood fan.
Never watched Sopranos but hear it's the GOAT
Finally watch it.
A few good performances but the writing is awful.

How can anyone? A full frontal lobotomy? I tried for 30 seconds and couldn't get past the hammy acting and ridiculous accents.

not OP, but my main issue is that it's fundamentally a nihilistic show
some call it postmodern, but it's not just a critique of traditional story structures, it's a subversive project all-together
no one really grows, everyone gets fatter, everyone gets worse personally and relationships fall apart and so on
no one has a real story arc, it's not a narrative in the traditional sense, it's a character study in a realistic universe
it's just watching a group of people decline and watching their culture and way of life decline

people just think about the whackings or one liners and think it's a quirky mob show, but it's more evil than that unfortunately
David Chase is a fag

It's extremely dated.

Sounds like a pretty accurate depiction of American society in the 21st Century
