END OF DISCUSSION.
Pisses me off how much attention Sopranos gets compared to The Wire, which was head and shoulders better in my opinion.
Other HBO Shows to check out are Carnivale and Deadwood. Rome is f'ing great too. I think those 4 would make up my favourite HBO shows. Other stuff worth checking out would be Entourage, Generation Kill and True Blood.
In all honesty though, I think HBO has gone downhill the past few years. Ever since The Wire ended the network just doesn't have a "flagship" TV show.

David Simon created both Generation Kill and The Wire. So you should definitely check it out since you like GK.

I think Showtime wins hands down. Dexter...one of the best shows on TV period, IMO Californication is great, Weeds is good, The L-Word which my GF loves, the Hooker one, United States of Tara...not sure about that one, hehe.
I liked the early "The Wire" shows the best and 6 feet Under for HBO. Big Love is actually decent, but for now, Dexter cannot be beat on Showtime!!
