Is there really not a Sopranos season 6 thread?

i never noticed this moment before:

Hesh's daughter: You can disagree with the evangelicals but they're great friends of the Jews. They believe Israel is the holy land.

Hesh (under his breath): Just wait.

I love Hesh.

the bit in Season 1 where Hesh tells the family not to get involved with the hasidim = classic

"Where'd he get this bread, the bread museum?"

watched all six seasons of this in about 6 weeks. unemployment to the max. so am i the only one who thinks season 6 is the best? way classier than the other five seasons, better endings, just better flow to all the episodes. thought the ending was fine, not amazing or massively disappointing either.

throughout the six seasons have to say paulie's one liners are one of the best things about this show, and the way they get progressively weirder and funnier. eg when they find out about vito and he says "if i get my hands on him i'll shove something up HIS ass"...then realises what he's said and is like even angrier: "and it won't be no cock neither!"

is there anyone who DOESNT think tony gets it in the last episode?

eh, I like the ambiguity of it, that he's condemned to a perpetual state of paranoia/fear/suspicion

very Catholic

but the stuff about "you probably don't even feel it when it happens" and the "it's just a big nothing" lines seem like pretty obvious signposts so yeah

ya, and the dude going into the bathroom...

i dig the ambiguity, but the more i think about it, the hard cut to black etc etc... is MY personal take

iyo did tony die at the end of "the sopranos"

i can't tell if "doesn't die" won on a shipley-led technicality or if people actually think he lives past that moment

hahahah me too

good technicality and i totally agree BUT at the same time, everyone's got a theory in the back of their head right?

jesus all those psychos, misogynists and murderers in the sopranos and somehow AJ still comes out the worst cunt in the whole racket

good when tony stamps on coco's head tho

AJ still comes out the worst cunt in the whole racket

dunno how anyone could draw this conclusion

well he's probably the most annoying tv character of all time. Dunno if I'd call him a cunt though

AJ was a complete fuckup and super annoying but his last gf was pretty hot

his last two girlfriends were both stunning

cunt as in person

worst was probably a bit strong but he's consistently v.v.annoying

yeah I was interpreting "worst" in a moral sense there... I do feel like he's the most outwardly pathetic. I've noted elsewhere that I don't think he has a single scene that doesn't involve him being humiliated in some way

he's tragically, flailingly, depressed and unable to see beyond himself

like father...

when you put it that way

Watched "Heidi and Kennedy" last night. Amazed at its density, how much ground it covers in an hour. And all that asbestos.

i had been watching thru this again; past about mid-s4 watching for the first time. i watched the final 2 and half eps yesterday -- in a strange coincidence, the 5 yr anniversary of gandolfini's death. RIP.

i found it tough going a lot of the time, despite the complete magnificence of s6 A and B. i wasn't really enjoying spending time with these violent lying deluded people! and i stopped caring what happened, what they did to each other, or how the writers would find ways to show them failing to solve their obvious problems in the same ways over and over again. i skipped over the middle of s5. peace to david strathairn.

i ended up loving rosalie aprile. i ended up completely hating dr. melfi. wisdom never turns up where it's needed, is that the point?

has the finale been compared to the seinfeld finale at all? i'm sure, somewhere, on a blog... i loved it. a great fuck you to us for identifying, for wanting to see them off cleanly, one way or another. the comment above that tony could be killed 5 sec or 20 years later, is right on.

the last scene with tony and junior was wonderful.

just started on season 6 on my rewatch of the sopranos. the way they take eugene pontecorvo, a complete bit part character, and make him sympathetic and fully-fleshed in that first episode of season 6, and the horrendous suicide scene, *kisses fingers*.

i hadn't watched the show since it was originally broadcast and I've got to say the rewatch has only confirmed to me that this is my favourite tv show ever

feel like it was a real turning point in TV, one of those rare genuine milestones that is also really rewarding to return to

Bobby Baccala, discussing his family's immigration history: "They should build a wall now, though"

Potential spinoff with AJ as the new MAGA NJ crime boss.

best episode of the season so far also AWESOME USE OF EARLY GIORGIO MORODER SONG IN THE BADA BING! THIS season has had the best music!!
