Great Start for HBO

I watched the Sopranos and Big Love last night and thought both shows were great! The Sopranos started of a bit different that I had thought...they made as if the same amount of time had gone by in the characters life as had gone by since the last season. And that added a new feeling...Johnny Sack has been in jail more than a year, Christopher's been on the mend for more than a year and Tony is back with his wife for more than a year. Interesting.

The thing that added the biggest twist was Tony being shot, a new soldier hanging himself and a hit...all in the first episode of the season.

Big Love is very promising. Probable one of the best series premiers in years. This show, about polygamy, is going to have humor and drama and may replace Entourage as my favorite HBO comedy. It was off to a great start.

The best part about Big Love is them making these Utah compounds seem like the mod in the way they're run and how they handle those that have left the compound for a more 'normal' life. I'm guessing the Mormon Church will be up in arms about this show, if they're not already.
