Friends,
Last podcast, my gf and I began discussing an important question -- assuming you consider the top three shows of tv's recent "golden age" to be sopranos, mad men and breaking bad (i do), how would you rank each series leads?

that is to say, those three shows are defined largely by their enigmatic, conflicted protagonists: tony soprano, don draper and walter white. I find the question of likability to be silly, especially here, so -- in considering their backstory/personality/outlook on life etc -- which character do you find to be most compelling/interesting?

For more, check out the podcast. the conversation begins at

Wondering how people would rank them?

Walter white became more of a caricature as the show went on but I think it was intentional (I have my own thoughts about the trajectory of each BB season and how it ties into this thought of Walt become more and more like a comic book villain) while tony and Don stayed entirely human the whole time

i honestly might think Don might be be most compelling, all things considered (incredible finale that's arguably better than both sopranos and bb)
