Even though it was a drama and sometimes very dark, it has some of the best one liners of allllll time. Serious laugh out loud stuff

[quote=FRPLG;1013668]Cult show? Hardly. It had widespread mainstream exposure and won Emmys.[/quote]

I've heard that term used with it. I do agree its a classic show. But I feel like in order for a show to be a classic, it has to be widely talked about 10, 15, 20 plus years after it goes off the air. (I think it will, but for now we'll call it a Cult Classic)

Re: So long, Tony Soprano
 

I've always thought cult classic referred to a show or movie that didn't do well in the ratings or at the box office, but had a strong and loyal following. Along the lines of Arrested Development, Friday Night Lights, The Big Lebowski, etc. Didn't The Sopranos have mainstream and critical success? Not sure that cult really applies here.

Re: So long, Tony Soprano
 

Yeah your probably right about cult classics.

Re: So long, Tony Soprano
 

The Dr. Who series is a Cult classic.

Re: So long, Tony Soprano
 

And MST3000

mr. show

would "kids in the hall" count or is that to mainstream?

The episode where Chris and Paulie got lost in the woods was pretty funny.
