roam

rome then deadwood
Rome > Band of Brothers > The Wire > John Adams > Boardwalk Empire > The Sopranos > Oz
Never seen the rest, should really see Deadwood.
>>69790434
The Sopranos invented the modern drama, so you should probably start there.

What's so good about Rome?
>>69791057
Violence and tits. It's basically Game of Thrones for tryhards.
>>69791057
Accurate portrayal of ancient rome and a high budget that spans two seasons. 10/10 casts and performances. Only real problem is that they completely skip over action scenes and battles for the most part, but the drama is the driving force. Note: though rome itself is realistically portrayed give or take, the actual historical events are artistically redesigned to fit into the show's drama involving two Roman legionaries.

my fucking sides
Oz
>>69791317
to make myself more clear, the atmosphere of the show -- the way the political system is portrayed, religion, crime -- that stuff is accurate, but shit like octavian being kidnapped when he was younger is not, that's fictionalized.

Everything
>>69790434
Start with Rome, then Deadwood, Oz, Sopranos, The Wire and finish it off with Band of Brothers.
Though it's a mini-series, it's probably the best piece of television ever.

>>69791023

Rome, Deadwood, and Carnivale. In that order.

Oz set the stage for the Sopranos.
