    The Sopranos and Breaking Bad were both great but BB >. The Sopranos didn't have much of a story arc. The gang gets decimated at the end but that happens at the very end. Every episode was basically a stand-alone, like a sitcom. The appeal was watching to see who would get killed or beaten up each week, and usually the victims were inconsequential.

    BB had an incredible story arc. The stakes just kept getting higher and higher.

    Never watched The Wire.

    Breaking Bad >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Sopranos / The Wire.

    Agree with JohnnySic, i think Sopranos was great but just couldnt get attached to the story in similar fashion to BB, nor the characters / main character, it felt like a good random Goodfellas wannabe with a Al Pacino/Robert De Niro/Joe Pesci wannabe... just not entirely there.... it was good tho, but i just couldnt get into enjoying it as much as that slow & detailed zero to hero process of Walter White, i couldnt freakin wait to see what happens next, every episode.

    First of all, "Patriot" on amazon is the GOAT show, and its currently wildly underappreciated much like the early season of Breaking Bad.

    In regard to the 3 shows brought up by OP... I would say that Breaking Bad and the Wire are basically neck and neck (BB might be the better show by a hair), and both of those shows are FAR better than Sopranos.

    Well, thatīs an impossible decision for me. I love all of them, these are literally the most favorite shows of mine. After I watched Breaking Bad after Sopranos, I thought that it was even better show. This year I rewatched Sopranos and I felt like it was fantastic. But if I had to pick one, Iīm gonna go with Sopranos, just because I like the characters much more than characters in Breaking Bad and The Wire.

    The Sopranos felt more like I lived it than watched it, even though I share no real commonalities with the characters in real life. No other show has done that for me, even though I also loved Breaking Bad.

    Six Feet Under made feel actually depressed, so I guess that's gotta come in somewhere close. I don't think a poorly written or produced series could affect you like that.

    One thing I really like about The Sopranos, other than the character development and acting, was how they handled dream sequences.
