Mobster stories are always a harder sell for me. I don't romanticize organize crime the way others do, though I can be swayed.

In fact, when it comes to TV, I'm not even sure what my real, true preferences are.

The fastest way to bring financial ruin upon yourself is to go for a drive in the United States without proof of insurance and current license and registration.

I'm pretty sure the world is in solid agreement that "The Wire" is worth watching all the way through.

As far as my personal nostalgia zone goes, I find I watch more of AntennaTV than anything else.

There just isn’t a weak season of 'Breaking Bad.' There’s just superior work, a sprint toward evil that turned into a marathon. But like all big-talker shows that bring their heavy cargo in for a rough and breathlessly observed landing, 'Breaking Bad' didn’t quite leave itself enough runway to satisfactorily end some of its better story lines, especially once the chronology gap closed up between the flash-forwards from last year’s episodes and Sunday night’s conclusion. One could easily argue that there was just too much left to do in this one episode.

I like the anthology concept. I wish more shows would do it.
