Critics' reviews

"It's the best series on television, end of story"

Tim Goodman: SFGATE
"This is 'The Sopranos' at its best -- and that's just about as good as TV ever gets. Rating: ★★★★ (out of four)"

Robert Bianco: USA Today
"The most creative and richly imagined (...) it begins by going over old ground and yet something new and totally surprising happens"

Alessandra Stanley: The New York Times
"Television's greatest drama series has only gotten greater"

Tom Shales: The Washington Post
"It never fails to fascinate, creating a completely organic world in which it's easy to forget the art and artifice that go into realizing Chase's vision"

Brian Lowry: Variety
"It's probably one of the two or three most influential primetime dramas ever made (...) 'The Sopranos' is a dreamlike show in all the best senses of that word"

Todd VanDerWerff: AV Club
"Director Chase chooses shots carefully to keep levels of gore from becoming excessive, not a small achievement here"

Barry Garron: The Hollywood Reporter
