Whoa, hold on a bit. This is supposedly the final season. What we have unfolding week after week is watching what was once a well-oiled, tightly controlled mob gang beginning to come apart at the seams.
One guy hangs himself because Tony won't let him leave the family and move to Florida. Uncle Junior goes completely nuts and shoots Tony. Paulie Walnuts has his life turned upside down and is going through some sort of personal identity crisis. Carmello is having problems with her spec house (and her father). Vito gets caught in a leather bar, and takes a powder. You just know something bad is going to happen with the guys brought in from Naples to do a hit for Johnny Sack. Phil Leotardi is itching to give Johnny Sack the sack. And Christopher's Arab buddies seem alike a trap waiting to spring. Finn and Meadow seem headed for some kind of turmoil. And AJ is a bomb waiting to go off. Even Silvio is having asthma attacks.
This is great drama. Nobody has jumped the shark, yet.
They have for me. After all this time and all those episodes, I have watched the last of the Sopranos. I think this whole season is a bad joke on their former fans and I've had enough.
It is geniune crappola now, and will not be ruining any electrodes on my tube anymore.
Don't worry about it.
There's always this type of screaming ranting and raving and bitching and moaning when a show doesn't follow certain people's ideas.
It's their show. It isn't as if the show isn't ending here soon or anything anyway :)
Beyond that, I haven't seen the most recent episode but the rest of the season has been just fine.
And yes I think Christopher is getting set up and I think that AJ is going to be in the family business here really soon.
