Certainly not. Let me rephrase the question however. Is The Sopranos a
program that glorifies unbridled unregulated capitalism in the form of
organized crime, as it has been described to me by others familiar with the
program, and if so is this program to be taken as evidence of a Golden Age
for TV? My watching or not watching the program has nothing to do with its
content. The last sentence of the paragraph my quote below is taken from
lists the same qualifier (that my opinion relies primarily on the
description of the show as given to me by others) as is in my question
above. Does anyone feel this way about this program or I have been
misinformed by others and therefore formed a poor opinion for the program
when I watched it once?
