Paulie Walnuts is at least consistent. "Everyting's about me"
Many people are gonna get iced I feel . Otherwise this l;ast season will go out like Cheers. I want it to go out like the Bob Newhart Show. That was the greatest series ending ever.

If it went out like Six Feet Under did, that would be quite good as well.
I don't watch the show because it denegrates italian americans and that offends me.
whaddya spect freom such a gabone.
For the most part my friends most of whom are Italian watch the show. There are some who will not because it denigrates italians. If the truth be told it is a very accurate presentation of the wise guys.
If accurate, how does it denigrate anyone? Not all organized crime is Sicilian, or Italian, but some Italians and Sicilians make up a infamous part of organized crime. In fact the realism sought after in Soparano scripts is a welcome exception to what is far too often stereotyping in novels, film and television. Even the most despicable members of the criminal underworld have redeeming features and have admirable traits. They are human, even if much of their behavior and and many of their attitudes are dangerous to social order.
In the end, The Sopranos should be judged on the quality of the writing, acting, and production values, and not so much on how accurately the series depicts the criminal world of New Jersey. This is after all a drama, not a documentary.

Funny; my first reaction to the Sopranos was: "Kickycan and Frank Apisa would fit right into this bunch."

If you believe that you have no idea how violent members of the mafia are.
Damn. Was anyone else creeped out by the Asian kid in the hospital with Uncle Junior? The irony of it was almost unbearable.

That was my reaction as well... Talk about bizarre timing.
I felt the same way. Creeped me out.
I also liked the letter Uncle Junior sent to Cheney.
Maybe its just me but , like Tony, Im waiting for the shoe to drop. Only 6 more episodes to sort this all out. MAybe the show will end with a group hug.
I didn't get to watch last night, I recorded it.
I'm really looking forward to this asian kid thing.
The only part of the episode that was almost worth while watching was with Uncle Jr. The rest wasn't even up to the standards of a bad soap opera.
This season has been a disappointment.

Did I forgot to say "just kidding" again? I have got to start remembering to say that from now on.
you gotta say that for the intellectual types here, you know, the one's who've read that Prince Machabelli guy.
ya big gagootz.
So Tony's got a gambling problem and is running out of money.
The missus built a house that doesn't meet code.
A kid takes a dump in the shower.
Speaking of dumping, AJ's fiance dumps him and leaves town.
Where is this all going? Do I still care? So far, this season has been eh.
Is anyone else feeling like "They are going to wrap this up in 5 episodes??"
