I am not a prude and I do consider myself “hip”, but I never really got “The Sopranos”. I really don’t get “Entourage”.

My guess is the AJ is going to end up whacking Tony and it will be reveled that Tony whacked his father to become a made man.

The circle is complete. Good ole Italian patricide.

Entourage is not a pimple on the ass of the Soprano’s.

“My guess is the AJ is going to end up whacking Tony and it will be reveled that Tony whacked his father to become a made man.”

My guess is that AJ gets into the family biz by whacking Phil Leotardo.

Nah, they'll go out like seinfeld...with a whimper. The final episode will be a flashback episode. All surviving members of the Sorpanos cast will sit around tony's dining room table and recall scenes from past episodes.

Tony: "Hey, Janice remember the time you whacked Richie Aprile?" - Cut to that particular scene.

Cut back to Tony's dining room.

Tony: "Hey, Sil. Remember the time you whacked Adrianna?"

Fuiro: "Hey Boss, remember the time I was about to throw you into the propellers of that plane so that I could have your wife all to myself, but thought better of it?"

Artie: "Hey Tony. Remember the time you blew up my restaurant because you thought you were helping me?"

Paulie: "T. Remember the time I stabbed you in the back by leaking Family info to Johnny Sack??"

And so on and so forth :-)

Same here.
It's not that I dislike the show. And it is well made and acted.
But something about it seems sort of souless. But I guess that
might be the point...this is a "Voyage of The Damned" with them
all looking for some way to end up on a high-note.
Even if they haven't a clue of when they might get killed.
Call me old-fashioned, but I guess I don't really see any "hero",
even a rouge-hero that is out to take over despite all the odds being
against him.

Me too, except David Chase probably figured everyone's thinking that, so he'll come up with a different ending.

...and it will be revealed that Tony whacked his father to become a made man.

That would be closure! Maybe that's why his panic attacks kept getting worse.

A few favorite moments: Richie Aprile gets his due. Janice playing her mind games (I know someone JUST like her). Johnny Sack's constant love for his obese wife.

Some general things about the show that I like: Tony can control the NJ mob, but can't control his own family. His life is mostly bored suburban living. The women characters are as well-drawn as the men.

As far as "Entourage" goes, its getting boring and repetitive. I only watch it for the Ari Gold character.

I don't know if I'm a prude or hip, but I don't care.
I do know that I am proud of the long list of shows that I have either never watched, or watched a single episode:

Roseanne.
Any show with Ellen Degenerate.
All comedies based on Teen or subteen tastes .
All series that glorify organized crime or corrupt cops.
So-called "reality" shows.
American Idol or its clones.
The Jerry Springer Show or its clones.
All so-called "professional" sports.

Did I miss anything?
