Another Sopranos thread motherfuckers  :sheik

Seriously though, compare this fictional relationship and the chemistry of the performers to others. Edie Falco shits all over whomever played Skylar in Breaking Bad, she shits on most women in TV. Estranged housewife is a easy trope to make people feel apathy towards. Throughout the entire series Carmella's attitude and demeanor never feel canned or fake.

James Gandolfini is one of the GOAT leads of all time, but Edie carries these scenes completely. She earned the GOAT status for these two scenes alone.

Falco is definitely the best actress to play that "wife to morally ambiguous or POS dude" character. The worst HAS to be Mackey's wife in The Shield.

:snoop

Rewatching The Shield, I'd say she's alright and the character finally becomes important in the last season. She's grating in a lot of scenes, but I attribute that to the character and not the actress.

Something I didn't realize until now is the audience is shown very glimpse recreation periods, home life in The Shield doesn't exist for the audience. 99% of the show takes place at the barn or on the streets. So any time we see Vic's wife, its going to revolve around Vic failing as a husband or father.

Corrine is definitely the weakest woman character on the show. Danny, Claudette, Rawling, hell, even Mara, they all run circles around her.

Nip/Tuck was Sex in the City for dudes. And gay people are fans of both shows!

Nip/Tuck came out at the perfect time and doesn't make sense unless you were noticing media trends at the time. Plastic surgery reality TV shows were huge, E!, TLC, any network that had reality TV had their own plastic surgery shit show. The majority of plastic surgery shows revolved around some 20 something chick getting new tits. If not that, then some random ass plastic surgery operation.   

Nip/Tuck didn't lampoon those shows, rather, it was a more playful and eccentric take on plastic surgery. The show gets really dumb at times, but its a fun kind of dumb, not a Dexter kind of dumb.

It's a part of the suburban white girl pantheon of the 00's . The OC, Nip/Tuck, One Tree Hill, Grays Anatomy, Desperate Housewives, etc etc.
this was the gamut of my tv viewing career until about 2007

in one post you just ripped my fucking life apart

Ryan Murphy created Nip/Tuck.  That alone should tell you the show was meant for suburban white girls.

I always hurt the ones i love

:fbm
the cardinal rule I lived by in my house was to stay as neutral, nondescript, and inoffensive as possible when expressing myself. As such, when it came to scripted dramas, my sisters held sovereignty over the remote.

Outside of soaps (which was where I drew the line), the rotation looked like:

- [garbage ABC dramedies] Ugly Betty, Pushing Daisies, Private Practice, Brothers and Sisters, DH, Grey's
- [off-kilter police procedurals] Medium, Numb3rs, Without a Trace, Cold Case, Boston Legal, Monk
- [USA shlock] Burn Notice, Psych, White Collar, In Plain Sight, Royal Pains
- [CW garbage] Reba, Charmed, One Tree Hill

Nip/Tuck was definitely in there, but to this day I've never more than 5 minutes of it. everyone has standards I guess :mannyshrug

GOAT is Spartacus scene where Lucy Lawless is like ''bend her ass'' and the dude ass fucks the big tittied redheaded slave.  TV should just be porn with a shitty story and some people getting killed on top.

Picking a best scene from Spartacus is hard because literally any scene with Gannicus or Batiatus is a classic. Those and almost every major character death. Especially if it's a villain.

"Please...our child!"
"I would rather see it dead than suckle your breast"

I thought it was already settled that the dude-centric Sex in the City analog was Entourage.

I know we're skewing dramatic here, but allow me to interject...
