    Six Feet Under

    While Sopranos and The Wire are in my top 3 Favorite Shows of All Time, the hands-down best is Six Feet Under.

    6FU was the most creative, most original show ever to appear on the small screen (or even the silver screen) and deals with death, love and sex in ways that neither Sopranos or The Wire ever could. The character development was so complex and authentic that your affection and frustration with the characters flipped around half a dozen times over the life of the show.
