Overview: The Sopranos: Season One (Inkworks)

If you can stomach it, The Sopranos is one of the best shows ever made. And that's no hyperbole either. On the surface, it's mobsters and crime. But what it's really about is family and the struggles that come with it. The show has been on cable since 1999, racking up ratings that make network television envious. While it may have seemed like an unlikely property to be turned into a trading card set, Inkworks has done it and done so with class - if there was any other way to celebrate such a show.
