My Five Favorite HBO Series

As I was coming up with my list of favorite HBO series I gave some thought to how there has always been a lot of discussion about the impact of THE SOPRANOS and just what an amazing show it is with some people declaring it the best TV show ever. This got me to thinking about how I am not one of those people who hold THE SOPRANOS at such a lofty position. Sure I recognize it’s importance in shaping the landscape of dramatic television but I honestly think that, as a show, THE SOPRANOS really wasn’t that great. To me the show was incredibly average in terms of storytelling but overcame all of that with great casting and acting. I defy anyone to point to one major storyline in the entire run of the show past Season 1 or 2 that was really all that amazing. Instead The SOPRANOS was wonderful at individual scenes featuring great acting performances that are very memorable but not in story arcs that elicit the same fond memories.

Big Brother Bigotry Supercut

big-brother
This season of BIG BROTHER has been exceedingly racist/sexist/prejudiced as if there was a casting call for the most obnoxious and hateful attention whores in the country and the best and brightest all were thrown into one tacky house to have their every move recorded 24/7. Usually the show doesn’t make the more offensive stuff that is shown on the live feeds on the thrice weekly TV show but the outrage over the offensive statements from the house guests was so strong that CBS aired a clip of the racist statements of two house guests, Aaryn and GinaMarie, which was a ice first step especially since the show the viewers to vote on a season MVP and that person will win a cash prize so voters really do need to be informed of who these people are. However, there has been much more hateful crap spewed out by other house guests which did not get an airing on the CBS show but luckily a bigotry compilation video has been put together showing just how vile the majority of this season’s cast really are.
