I always enjoy some binge watching. I finished The Sopranos in a couple weeks
the Sopranos and Oz rule, didn't really fancy the Wire as much as i fancied them.
tho Oz got weaker after season 4-5 or so, and the Sopranos couldn't really beat how great the first seasons were
i wish they'd filmed more of Rome.

one view of the capital and it's general propositions, imo it needs a stronger focus on some parts. a bit of a "Soviet view" perhaps? needs more humanism / ideology.
i don't that much like it as a whole representation of Marx's ideas.
feel free to pm me aout Althusserian ideas if anyone's checked into them, as they're next on my reading list.

a rough sketch of Hegel's science of being from "The Logic of Science" according to some people, useful from everything from Leftist Hegelians (Feurbach, Engels, Marx, their associates and somewhat Striner (a hang-around?)) to more modern interpretations (Heidegger, somewhat Derrida via Heidegger and 100% Sartre via Heidegger) to most modern continental philosophy (Badiou, Zizek). the Logic of science is very hard to interpret by anyone at all though, so the sketch might be wrong altogether.
Very, very useful with Badiou and the Event imo. one can't really escape Hegel - whether it's from Kierkegaard's and Schopenhauer-Nietzsche's rejection, to Heidegger's synthesising to Deleuzan opposition of him.
or Zizek's Lacanian reading of him (i really don't like Zizek...) with Badiou's view.
