Freakin Hollywood ingrates.

James should sub contract his role as Tony. Anybody got any ideas? Clint Eastwood's too old, huh?

[BossLady]

Too bad! Gandolfini's ego has cost many laborers their jobs on the set and otherwise. The crew are the ones who suffer most from all this nonsense.

I always thought Carmella should head the family in the last season anyway. :)

Don't feel bad for HBO... with some of their other popular series ending, delaying the demise of Soprano's is something that doesn't upset them much.

James, You signed the contract 2 years ago. Tough Luck, go back to work....

The Gal on Fox Just said he was getting 2 mil per episode, making him the highest paid actor on tv, Kelsey Gramer cane in second at 1.6 mill. They must of made a deal?

Watched this show only once and I think it was the season finale.

Was embarrassed to have sat through a male soap opera.

As long as the Larry David show comes back, who cares?

Good for Tony.

The Sopranos is a dud without Tony.

If the goombahs in Friends can get $1M per.....so should Gandolfini.

"The Shield" has made me not miss the Sopranos.

Much faster paced. More action. No whiney kids.

Sopranos has been going downhill for the last two seasons anyway. Good riddance. I haven't even bothered to tape it--the violence is outrageous and the plots are unremarkable. I lost patience with Carmella when she ignored the advice of the old psychiatrist who told her to take the kids and leave Tony and his filthy lucre. But she couldn't imagine life without her "great room" and her weekly eyebrow waxing. There isn't one admirable character on the entire show.

For a great Sopranos substitute, there's The Agency. My husband never misses an episode--probably the only thing he watches on TV.

Last season the show stunk on ice.

If Gandolfini can squeeze more money out of HBO, more power to him! That is what it's all about.
