engaging in good-natured ribbing, and suddenly over a joke no worse than any of the others were making, Specifically it was a joke about homsexual activity...in the presence of Vito...which was intended to give us some insight into Vito's motivation later in the episode.

This call appeared to be on her own.
True, but a technicality IMO. :)
Now, is it just me, or is Deadwood a way better show than current day Soprano's?

Physically she is attractive, but I do not find her attractive as a person. I think that actress is pretty. Somebody would have to be nuts to want to get involved with LCN in any way shape or form.

It is not just you. Al Swearagen is the type of crime figure that I wish Tony Soprano would be like. Funny, sinister, and smart. Not passing out, snorting coke, and crying everyother episode.
I also like that Deadwood picks up each week where it left off. Of course it is hard to compare a series that is in week 7 and a series that is into 60 episodes now.

Yes, by season 3, everyone will be gay and David Lee Roth will be doing cameos at the Gem... :) But for now, the Calamity Jane character is just cracking me up.
Speaking of cameo's, on the credits scrolls for last night's Sorprano's, I could have swore I saw Tony Siragusa listed. Did I miss him?

"But I wanted to really act," he added. "I don't want to just play mob guys for the rest of my career." Oh yeah, this will really expand his career options! /sarcasm

Yeah, he was in the beginning of the show. I can exactly remember what scene, but he is a driver for somebody. He basically walked in a door and that is all you saw of him.

Yeah, Jane's mouth is so dirty it puts this fraternity boy to shame just thinking about it.

I could have swore I saw Tony Siragusa listed. Did I miss They use the same credits for every show. I don't think Goose appeared last night, but he was in two other episodes.
To: presidio9
He was in there.

I comment because it is posted here, and while not a regular follower I have on occasion seen an episode in passing. Now it only makes sense to keep changing the channel.
It is a ploy to win ratings. Granted HBO is a pay channel but there is outside money to be made in syndication outside the USA where it is played without editing (sex in the city is played in europe without any edits on broadcast TV). Then there is the boxed sets of DVD seasons.
This is just an effort to push homosexuals onto the public again. Sopranos is not supposed to be a homosexual series. As for it being a character trait, not so. It is a lifestyle choice. Homosexuals are only about sex.

We know Adriana will be whacked, or go on the lam.
She has a lead role in Matt LeBlanc's new show.

After all the talk about the series being so great, I started watching during (I think) the third season, maybe the fourth. It was during the time that Chris was taking acting classes and punched some guy out during one, plus he went to treatment for heroin addiction. The FBI-babe was making chummy with Adrianna and then hauled her in and tried to turn her into a rat. Ralph Cifaretto was still seeing Tony's sister, Uncle Junior was still worrying about his upcoming trial and Flavio (or whatever his name was) was looking to whack Tony (but ended up going back to Italy without doing it) because he (Flavio) liked Carmella and disliked how Tony was treating her. Did Tony ever find out that Adrianna brought a fed to his house for dinner?
I made it through quite a few episodes waiting for something exciting to happen, but I didn't see what all the hype was about. The most exciting moment I can remember from that time period was when Tony and Chris whacked Ralph C, but I missed that when I left the room. Tony spent way too much time at Dr. Melfi's office and Carmella spent way too much time bitching, moaning and forgetting on which side her bread was buttered. The strip-club scenes were too few and far between and Adrianna never took her bra off once. What a gyp!
Since then, we have dumped HBO and subscribed to Netflix instead. Has the show gotten better since I stopped watching or shouldn't I bother checking out the DVD's?

This is just an effort to push homosexuals onto the public again So before the last episode, HBO was pushing gambling, spousal abuse, adultrey, drug use, murder, etc...etc.. and NOW all of a sudden you feel the need to complian about it?
Sorry, but your a hypocriate

No, no, no, no. The whole point is that somebody caught somebody else in a compromising position and now they're both in danger. And it made for great TV.
