I know this episode was shot months ago, but am I the only one who found it ironic--and a little distubing--to watch a mentally disturbed Asian, exhibiting the same violent tendencies and psychoses, so soon on the heels of the Va Tech tragedy?  |

Is it me or is this first few the lamest yet, I think something is going to happen but it is really slow to start, or are they just wasting our time?

I think this week was good...I also think this season is better than last....the writing and acting are great...it's just the story, and everybody wants answers and murders....I don't think we will get them at this point...so Ive givin up on getting my questions answered and just trying to enjoy the show and hope we get to see some serious bloodshed in the end

There seems to be alot of tension amongst the troops,
I don't under stand why Tony just let the fight with Bobby go, It's like nothing happened.

They were talking about it on the radio today...someone called in and said that they will all be whacking each other off soon???? I hope that doesn't happen???   
Three things:
1. Tony Soprano
2. Witness Protection Program
3. Remember the name Kevin Finnerty |
Almost time to get our fish on!!!

It sure seems like it is going to get interesting, Chris is losing it for sure, I think he is going to mess Paulie up

Interesting. Tony already crossed one line when he gave up the Arabs to the FBI guy. |

Don't forget the reported clause in James Gandolfini's contract to return of the lat two seasons is supposed to require that the character of Tony Soprano must end in such a way that tony can not come back to the TV ever in the future.
Some thoughts on how this happens....
1...Carmella shoots Tony after rushing to tell him the Feds arrested everyone but ends up catching him in bumpin uglies with doc Melfe right after he finally breaks down in therapy..
2...Tony committs suicide.
3...Palie whacks Tony for Phil

probaly will be a spin off or new series..Sopranos II...or something...it looks like it is being set up now with A.J in the drivers seat ( and psychiatrists chair )...and the junior hoodlums in the background..
Too much money to be had to let it all go....

Rumor has it that the "sequel" will actually be a "pre-quel" ala Star Wars. Going back to Tony's formative years in the Mob. New cast, obviously. And any real sequel would probably have an elder Tony (not played by Gandolfini) living out his days in Arizona like Joe Bananas. If Gandolfini has such a clause in his contract, I would think it would stipulate that they can't bring him back to play Tony. There's just too much money to be made down the road for HBO productions to kill Tony off.
I can't see the remaining crew taking a run at Tony for Phil. Paulie, Sil and Bobby are just too loyal. Chris was the obvious choice and now he's out of the picture. |

Tony ends up as special teams coach with Mangini, shares a room at Jets Stadium with Tyson's old trainer.

I read in USA Today yesterday (that sounded funny) that the Ukrainian girl was in fact Phil's Mistress, but her dad was mistaken as Phil.

Remember, Chase says he has known exactly how this show would end from the inception of the project. He came up with the ending first and built the show around that....  |

I think that maybe Paulie is going to try and take over......Phil saying to take them from the top down.....and they will do business with whats left......and then leaving Paulie out of the hits.......can't wait for Sunday.

What do you guys make out of Paulie asking Pussy "When my turn comes, will I stand up?" in that dream sequence? Asking the other top guy who turned on Tony?
I also could never see Tony pulling off living in Arizona under the name of Finnerty--that ruse would last until the first time he walked into a deli and asked if they had good gabbagool  |

Earlier in the episode, when Tony was complaining to the guy in Florida about Paulie's incessant yammering, the guy said, "Well, Paulie's a stand-up guy". To which Tony replied, "Has he ever been put to the test?". |

It's another Roger Clemmins deal.

Wee, wee, wee. You guys crack me up. If you want neat tidy endings, read some fairy tales. The ending was supposed to make you THINK, just like the show has always done. There will not be a movie, or a new series or anything. Chase just did what every great film maker tries to do. Get over it!
