In your opinion what tv show(s) has had the finest/most genuine display of pure acting talent across a large portion of its cast that you've ever seen? Pic related for me, or breaking bad.
>>70325914
the sopranos
Deadwood
>>70325950
Second'd. One of the best
Seinfeld.
>>70325914
The Wire and Breaking Bad
The Wire imo
>>70325914
mad men, lost, or upstairs downstairs
> Only 2 mentions of The Sopranos
> No Six Feet Under
This thread is starting off well
The acting in The Sopranos and The Wire are pretty spot on.
Orphan Black is pretty good for that.
Main actress is fucking great as most of the clones, especially the crazy psycho Ukranian one, and then the rest of the characters do pretty damn well. No bad ones unless you count the shouty gay guy, but his character is 'shouty gay guy' so not exactly bad acting really

>mad men
Honorable mention.
The Sopranos.
The Wire was for a big part guys literally playing themselves, I Claudius is silly 70s camp acting.
>>70325914
OP here, I forgot to say GoT qualifies after removing the queen of cucks from the picture.
>>70325914
Half of the GoT cast are shitty child actors.
True Detective s1 trumps just about anything.
>>70326658
It had literally two good actors and a couple nothing roles.
True Detective followed by Mad Men

>plebs unironically enjoy a soap about white males in the 50's
Boardwalk Empire might actually rival The Sopranos. What a great array of brilliant roles.
>>70325914
Game of thrones killed off or wasted most of its best actors like Stephane Dillane, Charles Dance, and Sean Bean. Now all we have is Jonathan Pyrce but that is not enough to make up for all the shitty child actors. Half of the cast is shitty child actors.
>>70325914
Deawood or Mad men
>>70326823
This is not the board for you, cuck
>>70326823
Mad Men is the best television show ever made and it's ending signaled the death of good television
>>70325914
Legend of the Galactic Heroes
I don't like the series but Six Feet Under.
The first season of True Detective and The Wire too.
Sopranos for the main roles. Gandolfini and Falco tower over all. Mad Men and Deadwood for top to bottom casts.
>>70326926
>>70326926
>>70326926
Mad Men should have stopped after the first season.
>>70326926
mad men is honestly one of the most boring and horribly paced shows ever
>>70327122
Every season was a constant improvement in directing, writing and confidence. The last 4 seasons are a masterpiece rivaled only by its big brother, The Sopranos. I understand the masses will favor over dramatized event television like BB and GOT but we all know the difference between genuine art and disposable pulpy trash.
Hannibal

Get off your high horse dude, it's not as good as you're making it out to be believe me. Not in the same category as the Sopranos
The Leftovers wouldn't nearly be as good, if pretty múch every single person wasn't at least decent.
>>70327289
Mad Men had no direction after the first season and became just another soap opera.
Same thing that's happening to Game of Thrones now.
>>70327356
Dont feed redditors they thrive on acknowledgement.
>>70325964
this
>no walking dead
>>70327579
Of course a pleb like you would say such a thing. Any show that prioritizes character over plot and action gets called an aimless soap opera. Hilarious.
