cant wait

and while season 6 part 1 wasnt as eventful as far as violence as most of the other seaons, i liked it and think its a good setup for the finale, whatever the finale maybe

still its a huge series so they better finish it well

1/17/2007 1:27:36 AM

i mean...the coma sequence with him about to enter the house was one of the best sopranos moments ever

oh and its also pretty sweet that I'm off the following Monday for Easter

3/28/2007 3:16:01 PM

I can't believe that this is really the end of this show.

3/28/2007 3:20:09 PM

yeah i watched one of the older eps on A&E (?) the other night...it was the one where Christopher and that dude from A Bronx Tale are trying to crack that safe and Chris' boy keeps having to take a shit...also when Richie gives Tony that jacket that he keeps bragging about and Tony just gives it to the Russian's husband or whatever

3/28/2007 3:22:43 PM

haha, yea.

are those episodes good on A&E? I have the DVDs but was wondering how they are edited and compare to the original episodes.

3/28/2007 3:25:05 PM

when they edit out the cuss words its not that bad...sometimes you hardly notice...and they dont really edit out much of the violence

i was hesitant about shows with cussing and violence or other aspects going to regular or cable tv...like Sopranos, The Wire, Mr. Show, etc...but they're all pretty good

not quite as good as Dolby 5.1 or better on HBOHD but hey its still a good show

interesting little article about some of the actors who have been killed off in the show

also though, from the caption of the photo, it looks like on Tuesday of this week they had some event where they showed 2 new episodes? Wonder if they're available?

3/29/2007 9:51:07 AM

The next episode is online. I watched it yesterday. It was a decent way to get back into things. No real action to speak of, but lots of family drama. Hopefully things will pick up a bit, but it's good to have it back.

Someone explain the looking out over the lake plz.

4/8/2007 9:59:51 PM

he's thinking about his life....past, present, and future

....and by the look on his face he is worried

[Edited on April 8, 2007 at 10:10 PM. Reason : 1]

4/8/2007 10:08:12 PM

also how the lake was...calm, glassy (charges dismisses, just enjoying the moment, free of worry)...then choppy with clouds rolling in (after the fight)...then a slight breeze/choppy when bobby was looking out over the water

and tony's niece singing a song about ducks...goes back to the first season with the ducks and the pool i think.

"Sopranos Rewind: Livia's legacy, Bacala's broken heart Posted by Alan Sepinwall April 08, 2007 9:56PM Categories: The Sopranos WARNING: This column contains major plot spoilers for last night's "Sopranos" episode. "Tony is not a vindictive man." Uh, Carm? You want to watch last night's episode and get back to me on that? Forcing Bacala to get his hands bloody after so many years of avoiding murder was the worst thing Tony could have done to his brother-in-law, short of whacking one of Bobby's kids. And all over a fight that started with a silly argument over the unofficial Free Parking rule in Monopoly. That is some revenge served up sub-zero, the sort of calculating evil that only one other character in "Sopranos" history would be capable of: Livia. Ever since Janice turned up in season two, we've been taught to believe in an obvious gender-based personality inheritance. Tony is his father's son, with Johnny Boy's temper and ego. Janice is Livia's daughter, with the scheming and the passive-agressive manipulation. Simple, right? Not really, according to the final season premiere, "Soprano Home Movies," in which Janice of all people - delusional Janice, who rewrites every second of her autobiography to make herself into the heroine - suggests that the roles might be reversed. And, in fact, killing Richie for punching her in the mouth (presented in a sad, funny alternate history to Carmela) was more a Johnny Boy reaction than a Livia one. Livia wouldn't have shot Richie. She would have henpecked him to death, or found something he loved and taken it from him. What Tony did to Bacala, meanwhile, as payback for the Monopoly brawl, is exactly the move Livia would have made, where Johnny Boy and Janice both would have gone straight to pistols or knives or whatever weapon was handy. In looking back over the series, I've always wondered how things would have gone if Nancy Marchand hadn't died after season two. Livia was so fundamental to the show - David Chase having based her on his own mother - that everything after her death feels almost like a backup plan. And yet as the show heads to a close, Livia's spirit remains a presence, and last night's episode was our strongest hint since season five's "Cold Cuts" (the one where Tony provoked Janice into attacking him because he was jealous of her good mood) that Tony is in the process of becoming the person he most feared and loathed. He isn't becoming New Tony, that's for sure. It took a while after last year's shooting, but all the "every day a gift" and "they go about in pity for themselves" quotes couldn't keep Tony's true nature hidden forever. If "Soprano Home Movies" was slower-paced and more claustrophobic than I suspect some of you may have liked, it was also a crucial reminder that Tony is not, no matter how much we try to rationalize all his behavior because James Gandolfini is so charismatic, a nice person, not in any way. He is selfish and judgmental. He nurses grudges and takes advantage of his power as boss to make sure he always wins. He's a monster, even if he's our monster, and even if Livia made him into one. (She did a number on Janice, too, obviously. Watching Janice flip out over Nica for acting her age and saying "No!" made me feel just a little bit sorry for her for the first time. And it made me feel very sorry for Nica, who's destined to put some therapist's kid through private school.) The show began with a brief prologue where Tony was arrested for the gun he dropped in the snow at the end of season five. (Carmela's "Is this it?" as the Essex County sherriffs pounded on the front door served as a nice opening statement for a season where the audience is waiting to see when or if Tony will be arrested or killed.) But after cameo appearances by most of the wiseguys from both sides of the Hudson (the Jersey ones awaiting Tony's return from jail, the New York ones greeting the rehabilitated Phil Leotardo and telling jokes about the "farmers" in Jersey), Tony, Carm and the episode headed off for Bacala's cabin for their own road company version of "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" Even by the standards of "Sopranos" episodes set largely outside the characters' home turf, this one felt like a departure. Director Tim Van Patten's use of dissolves to illustrate the passage of time, coupled with all those lingering shots of Bacala's lake, gave the precedings a relaxed, almost hypnotic quality, one that made the ugliness of the Monopoly game (even before the brawl) especially shocking. Everyone's having a fine old time telling old stories, getting drunk, singing karaoke, and all of a sudden Tony's getting pounded on by walking fat joke Bacala? The hour was largely a refresher course on Tony, Janice and their history, but it also gave Bacala the dignity he's so often been deprived by the writers. Having to kill that Canadian guy just crushed him, and when the Canadian ripped open Bobby's shirt as the second bullet was fired, it exposed his broken heart for all of us to see. As I said in my preview last week, if "Soprano Home Movies" was too on the quiet side for your taste (even with the brawl and the shooting and Tony teaching that tree a lesson it won't forget), know that next week's show will likely be more your speed. In the meantime, some other thoughts: -Proving once again that the genius of the show is in the little details, I give you Carmela brushing off the Monopoly piece stuck to Tony's bloody cheek. -Michael Imperioli had, what, 10 or 15 seconds of screentime? Still, Christopher seemed clear-headed in that cameo, so maybe he's on the wagon again. Either way, Tony doesn't seem over the Julianna thing. -Some of the funniest aspects of the show are the things left unsaid. Last year, a big deal was made of Tony getting tough with A.J. and forcing him to do that construction job, and we were left with the implication that A.J. had finally come within spitting distance of a work ethic. So, of course, we return from hiatus and now he's working at a pizzeria. So much for both his maturity and Tony's tough love. -Know your Family: Two important characters to keep an eye on from the brief glimpse of the New York mob are Doc Santoro and Gerry "The Hairdo" Torciano. Doc's the white-haired guy who's been serving as unofficial boss during Phil's recovery, the one the other wiseguys were complaining about. Gerry the Hairdo (possibly my favorite nickname in show history) is the one who complimented Phil on looking good. He popped up several times last season (looking blonder); he was one of Vito's killers. -"Sopranos" hypocrisy in action: the "they oughta build a wall now" comments after Bobby's story about his grandfather entering America illegally. -When Tony started asking Janice, "I'm different how? How am I different?," I can't have been the only one to flash back to the "Funny how?" scene from "Goodfellas," can I? -In addition to Janice's Richie story, we had Tony and Bacala discussing the killing prowess of the late Bacala Sr., played by Burt Young, who coughed himself to death after the bloodiest shootout in "Sopranos" history, in season three's "Another Toothpick." -Another subtle callback: Carmela's other birthday present for Tony (the one in the bedroom, not the golf clubs) was a reminder of the scene in season one's "Boca" where we found out that Tony returns the favor once a year and only once a year. -Sopranos Rewind will continue to appear in The Star-Ledger for the rest of this season, but it'll have a second home on-line, as part of a five-day-a-week blog at blog.nj.com/alltv/. We'll have Sopranos Rewind there on Mondays (I'll also have an NJ.com chat Mondays at noon), and reader feedback, links, classic moments and other "Sopranos" content to bridge the wait between episodes.

i did not like tonights episode at all. i of course liked the fight scene bc i am tired of that guy being a bitch. and it is a good set up for tony start his search for his replacement. but like last season...... it dragged on and on on worthless shit

4/9/2007 1:06:53 AM

I have a hard time not liking any of the episodes. Even when they're "bad" they're really good. I love the show so much that the slow ones just make the others so much more enjoyable. That said, I'm just glad it's back

i didn't read too much into that. i just thought it was very funny.

i really enjoyed the episode - it got the balls in motion in my opinion - i'm intrigued to see what happens next

4/9/2007 10:10:05 AM

he hung up on chris because he was A) in a bad mood and B) because he wasn't there when tony got out of jail earlier. Remember everyone asking where he was? I assumed he was getting high

balls get rolling, not in motion

thought this episode was pretty good. glad it's back

4/9/2007 5:46:15 PM

Also, a duck flew behind Tony while he was in the chair.

4/9/2007 6:52:18 PM

are you going to really argue that a ball that is rolling isn't in motion

4/9/2007 6:55:08 PM

but a ball in motion isn't necessarily rolling

4/9/2007 6:56:55 PM

i liked the episode.

before the episode last night i had pretty much assumed tony was going to be killed in these last 9 episodes, so i was thinking about who was going to be the killer. i figured it wouldn't be phil, because that wouldn't really be a good ending for soprano. phil is just the average adversary for tony, and who knows if that will even persist after tony's visit to phil in the hospital anyway. i don't think it would be fitting if he were the one to kill tony.

i thought a nice twist would have been having bobby be the one to kill tony b/c he's never done a thing. bobby is pretty much the nicest guy in show history, so it'd be interesting if he were the one to kill tony. after last night's episode, i think that gives the motive for him to do so.

i say that bobby kills tony

4/9/2007 7:53:25 PM

If anything, Tony is gonna kill Bobby. Lets not forget, his laziness is one of the reasons Tony got shot. This whole suckerpunch shit isnt gonna go away, no matter what Tony said about Janice you dont hit the boss. Hell, even she knew that

But then again, Tony has shown his soft side when it comes to Janice, so he might let it pass

[Edited on April 9, 2007 at 8:48 PM. Reason : bacala]

4/9/2007 8:47:02 PM

Tony has let a lot of other shit slide that you usually wouldn't expect. Like when Artie lost his money to the wine guy. I think it's too easy to assume that he kills Bobby. I doubt that happens. Nobody saw what happened except carm and janice, so you might never hear about it ever again.

4/9/2007 10:39:56 PM

tony kills bobby

janice kills tony


the circle is complete

4/9/2007 10:43:12 PM

tony dies in a house fire

tragic

4/9/2007 10:55:10 PM

i love Alan Sepinwall

4/9/2007 11:26:03 PM

No one else thinks Bobby's going to jail and/or will flip on Tony?

4/9/2007 11:50:26 PM

I think the thing with AJ and his jobs is that in one of the episodes he wanted to own his own club, so in order to do that Tony told him to work at Beansie's and learn it from the bottom up...

Also, i was pissed christopher was only in the episode for 2 seconds last nite...he MADE the first part of season 6 with all his stupid remarks, and i cant wait to see what he does next; and has anything been said about his kid yet?
