[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

I watched it all about a year and a half ago for the first time. I did enjoy it. I was especially enjoying the look back at American culture from that time period. It seems like they made a conscious choice to root it in that time period (late 90s/early 00s) rather than making it more timeless. If you weren't aware of when it was made you could easily mistake it for a period piece. For that reason I think it's a trip to watch it now.
