The Sopranos

most tv sucks these days, but there are some shining examples of good writing, acting, camera work, etc... we call those Deadwood and Arrested Development. Family Guy sucks ass, though...

Moderators: Zero, John Madden, Bob Ross, General Zod, Richard Simmons, Batman

okay, season 6 it is! but we'll get a season 7, too!

true, it would be a cop-out if he "just gets nabbed." the "turn around my life" epiphany and THEN getting nabbed is a good way to go...

THis is HBO, so he'll have an epiphany, turn states evidence, then get whacked in the last episode.

I don't know about that. I think someone EXTREMELY close to him is going to be outted as a rat, and he's going to have a panic attack and see people swirling around him, then he'll have visions of everything that's happened during the series (including shots of his mom and dad) - all accompanied by some poignant classic rock track - and he'll croak.

From what I understand, there is going to be a complete Season 6 and a 10 episode season 7 which is going to let the creators do everything they want to do before it wraps. I'm personaly very interested in seeing where they go with Anthony Junior.

I'm going to choose to ignore you, Dicktad.

Season 4 is up now. I caught Episode 40 last night. I was spoiled on a little detail regarding Ralphie (from the cover of the Season 5 DVD set), but I don't know how he gets wacked. My guess is it has something to do with Janice. Again.

It's very good - and that's all I'll say about that. I'm envious of you, Chux, I remember going through the first 4 seasons like a fucking junkie - 3, sometimes 4 episodes a day until I was caught up. Having to actually wait for season 5 to come out was a miserable, miserable thing..... but the wait for Season 6 has made it pale in comparison. On with the fucking show already.

Holy goddamn tapdancing Christ, I just saw this episode, and I think I stained my pants right there on the spot.

Holy crap, I only have one more episode to watch to be caught up. This last one was a doozy and a half. I knew the whole subplot about Adriana and the FBI would end badly, but had no idea how badly. When Sil was driving through the infamous pine barrens, though, I knew what was going down. I didn't want it to happen, but at that point it was inevitable.

Speaking of pine barrens, what the hell ever happened to the big Russkie? My guess would be, since a few years have passed and even Chris and Paulie bring it up at one point, he froze and/or bled to death out there.

I know the final episode of Season 5 is going to involve copious amounts of excrement hitting the fan. I hope it's as good (and unpredictable) as the death of Adriana. That one more than made up for "The Test Dream," which is easily the worst ep. I actually recall when it aired originally, folks on several other shows were saying that Sopranos had finally jumped the shark.

A question about that one, though: did it seem odd to anyone else that Richie Aprile didn't show up among all the dead people in the dream sequence?

Holy shit, last night's episode was worth it just for the scene of Meadow dirty-dancing for Finn in her unmentionables. Christ, this show just gets better and better.

That was unbelievable - and the ending totally supercedes my previous most surprising tv moment (which was less than 2 weeks old at this point). Awesome start to season 6.

<b>WARNING, JJ AND ANY OTHER CANADIANS WHO ARE A WEEK BEHIND: SPOILERS ON TONIGHT'S EP FOLLOW!!</b>




Holy fucking shit! I think the finale of this series is going to be Tony in a coma, slowing coming to the realization that his family is more important than the Family, even as the Family tears itself apart in a power struggle while he's out of commission. Those "coming next week" previews look like Paulie, Silvio, and maybe even Christopher are going to be at odds, and I imagine Vito and Bobby will have something to say about the situation, too.

And <b>finally</b> the confrontation between Finn and Vito! Can't wait for that.

Eh, I went and read the spoiler anyway. Sounds like a fun ride, y'know? I hear Kelly Clarkson will be on the show this season. I hope she's working at the Bada Bing, eh? It's aboot time we saw her naked, y'know?

So who's caught up? I watched "Mayham" on Wednesday (6.3) and I was pissing my pants. Any time Paulie goes off, I'm happy. That whole "more wrinkles than an old lady's cunt" business had me beside myself.
