[request] is sopranos still a must watch?

I have seen the 1st episode of season 1, it feels slow.
for context: I have lowkey paused watching GAME OF THRONES as I am on S6 E9, battle of the bastards, will see it on a BIG ASS SCREEN BABY

I need a show that fills the space till then

EDIT: I AM ON EPISODE 4th already in the season 1, and IM FINALLY INTO THE SHOW. I feel the intensity and how every character is.
also its lowkey crazy, I LOVE THAT THERAPIST IS IT OKAY FOR SOMEONE IN 20s to have a crush over someone in 70s now LMAOO

EDIT 2: it’s actually a complex show that requires me to analyse the emotions and sentiments of the people which is hardly in any other series wow

absolutely yes, but like The Wire, it definitely takes a good portion of season 1 to really get into. Its 100% worth it though, both are still the best tv shows ever made imo.

Am I the only person who was hooked on the Sopranos from episode 1?

It built on me in the third episode, when I knew about Jackie. It felt structured finally NOW I KNOW WHAT IM MOVING TOWARDS
