I don't know about the Sopranos being the best tv show of all time, but it just might boast the Best Character of All Time (Tony, obviously) and best Theme Music of All Time (that pounding rhythm is Tony's own insanely aggressive heartbeat).
Although honestly, I don't think the Tony character would have been 1/10th of himself without the jaw-dropping James Gandolfini playing him. Look at any still shot of this amazing actor; each square inch of his face is revealing a new thought, a different feeling, an entire story.
Whoever said Six Feet Under is the best tv show of all time, yep, that just could be. Come to think of it, Nate also is right up there as a character who gets under your skin forever.
