OOOOOoooooohhhhhhh! Dont go Tony!

[pete m]

OOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhh !!! No firggin waaaay! it cant be thhe end, not like that , did my satellite dish go wrong, what the fuuug !???:(

It was all a bit too happy families but i cant help thinking they could have found a better way to bring to the end the mobsters with therapists soap, especially after that great soundtrack - they put Brixtons Prince Albert degen 3 (and the rest) on the map - but did they bottle it at the end:(?

btw - what was the indie song playing when Antony gets into his new M3 ?

[northwind]

Don't want to drop in spoilers, but I liked the ending... Avoided the obvious. Life goes on...

[Pedrosa]

We are talking The Sopranos,right?

Well please excuse me but dont give away the final ending. Why? Well being an Iberian cave dweller I have only recently become a fan of this superb programme. I have just watched the full 1st series and am waiting the arrival of the subsequent one's.(Cant say how I am getting them:-dd)

I think this show is head and shoulders above anything including the Godfather Trilogy when dealing with mob related characters. The reason for that is it has superb humour and actually puts meat on the flesh of each character. You really get the sense of knowing how each will react to any given situation.

There really are some class performers in the show and at this point I can only pray that throughout the series we get to see plenty more of Adriana!:smt055

I've always been a big fan. Well I wouldn't say fan, but I always felt it was one of the highest quality "drama" series' on TV, arguably as good as any film. Wonderful and captivating.

Without wanting to drop any spoilers in either, I found the ending incredibly dramatic and emotive, certainly not happy families.

Hey it's over fahgeddaboudit...

[keithd]

at first i was annoyed at then ending, annoyed in a good way. i did shout at the telly. but i happen to think now that was one quality ending to easily the best drama from the US, maybe of all time

shame its gone, but i have my box set for company

[northwind]

It's still not as good as Oz. HBO know how to make TV.

[Pedrosa]

I want Livia to come back as a ghost! What a character with that real drawly Italian New York accent.

"Go ahead kill me right now why dontcha!":p

"Your Father was a Saint"

[Wideboy]

some one pm me what happened did he die TELL ME!!!!!!!!

[mac99]

Yeah. It was a very suitable ending.

[Wideboy]

what, they can't leave it like that:smt087

Pedrosa - what did Livia look like ? what did she do?

Pete.....

Livia was Tony's "ma". You need to go look at the first series to get a real understanding of what she was like. Cantankerous and awkward was not in it! Tony did his upmost to try and do the best for her but she spurned everything he did. Even so far as conspiring a hit on him with Uncle Jumior.

Sadly the lady who played her died,(Nanvcy Marchand) prior to filming of the second season. Shame for the plot as it was planned that she would yesyify AGAINST Tony in a matter relating to bogus airline tickets.

you woud have to be pretty dumb to be reading this far into the thread if you didnt wanna know what happens....wouldnt you :smt045

[pete m]

btw - someone mentioned OZ - which is the most hardcore show ever and totally fantastic - but there is another to beat all of these ...













The Wire - like a book you cant put down if you get the entire series on dvd...

[catdog]

btw - what was the indie song playing when Antony gets into his new M3 ?

That was The Noisettes. I don't remember what the song's called, but it's on their "What's the Time, Mr. Wolf?" album. They've been called a British Yeah Yeah Yeahs, which isn't a bad description.

Agree with you on The Wire too. I've been watching it on FX, very good indeed!

:-$ I've been avoiding it, I don't need another addiction in my life!

[pete m]

Catdog - totally brilliant - in awe of that spot :smt056

Northwind - do yourself a big favour - get on ebay and bid - about £15 tops will suffice for an entire series - id recommend series 1 to start with ;), then theres 2 & 3 , 4 has been broadcast in the US, not here yet, no dvd yet...:(
