The A.V. Club!

It gets better in the second half once it gets more into the backstories of the characters. I thought it was a slog at first as well, but glad I stuck through it to the end.

And don't get me started on the Kouros of Melos. Wow, you got a nice set of abs. Put a shirt on asshole!

I feel the same but different - I couldn't get into The Sopranos because of the violence. It's definitely not a show to binge watch. I watch a lot of violent movies and TV, but there was something extra upsetting about how it was portrayed on the Sopranos where I just couldn't stomach it.
