Sorry--no Mob hit would ever go down like that. A hit man walks into a diner, grabs a seat at the counter, lets the waitress see his face, then gets up and walks to the john, passing everyone in the place, supposedly to get a hidden gun like Michael Corleone? Meanwhile his partners wander in singly or in small groups, all letting themselves be seen?

Nope. That's Chase with a Godfather based red herring.

Mob hits happen in the blink of an eye. The hit team arrives together and carries out the hit right away--walk to the victim, guns already drawn, and blast away. Witnesses never see their face or if they do, the whole thing happened so fast they can't even give a description. If they arrive at the scene separately, one waits outside in the shadows for his partner. The classic example was the hit on Bobby--no BS, no waiting, just walk up with the gun out and start blasting.

Why would the guy have to go to the bathroom to get the gun? Why wouldn't he have it on him? Sonny knew Michael weas going to be searched before the sit-down and had the gun in place already--only way to carry it off. Why would a hitman need to go into the crapper to get the gun in that diner? Why wouldn't he have it on him and just walk up to T and start popping?

Sorry, but Bronko's info has also been debunked. The guy at the counter was a pizza shop employee they cast strictly for this show. It's not Phil's nephew or anyone else we've ever seen before.

What ? He got that info from a blog, that chit is gospel.

The show has fisherman sending post after post, and thinking The more I think about it the better I like the last episode. And I've never let facts get in the way before, so why start now.

AJ sure did get him a dish.

Bingo

Can you imagine the traffic today on some of the Soprano blogs?

I just wish they waited until AJs dish got the bra off too, before his Xterra went up in smoke

I liked the metaphor of Meadow trying to fit her car into the first "space" while her family waits - she finally gives up and finds another spot.
Similar to medical school & Finn not fitting and her gravitating toward working with crimminals.

it is what it is.........I don't need things put in a nice tidy package...I enjoyed it all...for what is was, a show that was very well written, directed and also had great acting...and always kept you guessing and wondering even right up to the end.
It had to end somewhere
