Deadwood vs The Wire vs The Sopranos, which is the Best TV Show Evah? Three TV critics discuss. (Note, includes a major spoiler for Season 5 of The Wire. Final episode this weekend!)
Don't know if Moorer coordinated with her sis on their duelling covers records. Mockingbird is nice enough but not knocking me out or anything. Best: "Dancing Barefoot", tight and strong. "Go, Leave," mopey torch song goodness. "I'm Looking For Blue Eyes," unassuming but sweet. Reconsider, Unless Your Name is Gillian: "Revelator." Just Don't, Unless Your Name is Nina: "I Want A Little Sugar in My Bowl."
This is an ennui-filled review of the recent spate of tasteful female "adult alternative" from the Village Voice. I lurve the Shelby, Allison so-so as above, Tift also so-so, have only listened to the Carlene once or twice but I like it alot, do not have the Sheryl or the Kathleen.

I've seen all of Deadwood and Sopranos, but only two seasons of The Wire so far and I votes for Deadwood.

...unless you're Bessie Smith, then there's definitely sugar for your bowl. Because you said so.
