Sopranos

I watched the latest episode of "The Sopranos" last night. Probably the best episode ever of the best TV show ever made. AJ made a lame attempt at suicide and Tony almost killed a creep who harassed his daughter. The feud with Phil Leotardo is about to boil over.

Tony's interludes with his psychiatrist are what makes this more than just another mob drama. The show would be good without that circumspective aspect, but it is truly great with it.

It is clear that the series is coming to an explosive end. I think they have dropped a number of hints about what will happen to Tony Soprano in the next 2 final episodes. I think the obvious outcomes are Tony's death or his imprisonment. There is one other possibility that I haven't heard anyone mention, so I won't do it here. It has been alluded to in the show, though.

If you haven't watched this show, get the DVD's or download the torrents. This is some outstanding TV.
