oz was better than both. it was the best show like that, continuing stroylin show i mean. early sopranos was good too but any more it is like why am i watching this shit. the shield is the best one on now. 24 is good too though. lost i havent seen but it does have a few guys from oz in it. never really appealed to me. the whole problem with shows like that is they need to be short or they end up getting bad. not 24, because of the every season is a day premise it could go a long time. but im just going to assume lost is that way, not bad yet. thats what happened to sopranos. if it is part of the same storyline from the first to last episode there is a point where they should stop. im not syaing it has come for either show. what er
