Actually...they are. HBO consistently has had the best programming for a few years. A lot of it has to do with that HBO can get away with more than other networks can; they can tackle racier, more violent, overall more dramatic topics, and they do so well. They can have shows like "The Sopranos" and "Sex and the City" that other networks just can't do.
The Sopranos is a great show...one of the best in a number of years. I haven't really gotten into Six Feet Under, but from what I've seen it is also extremely solid.
I also think Monk got shafted, in my opinion.
