The finest thing to come out of American TV. Performances, writing, music are flawless. Each episode deepens your understanding of characters and the world they move in so that by the end you can spot every nuance and know exactly why they do what they do and why they are what they are. Whatever 'glamour' is hinted at in their world is more than offset by the brutality and misery that is always lurking off-camera and someimes takes centre stage. The concluding montage of the final episod illustrates this beautifully without a word being spoken. Superb.
What can I say this series just keeps getting better and better. I wish I had discovered it years ago! The characters are complex, the acting is supberb, the storylines fresh and the directing inspirational
