...knew this wasn't going to be "Sopranos"-dense. And the cheese, especially in Probstian form, is part of the charm. At best, it's very good television and at its worst it's gloriously bad, and, well, there's nothing else good on anyway. And while the ratings have settled, the show is clearly a juggernaut made to run a long time.
