    i don't know if chase wants tony to end up being a snitch.....seems a little anticlimactic......:)

    On the contrary, it's the last thing that people would expect Tony to do. Completely contradictory to his character so far

    And the logical conclusion to his character development this season.

    yeah but not the modern mob.....there are very few like johnny sack that will do the time instead of ratting everyone out.....that's why i think the terrorist angle will be tony's way to not be a rat yet get out of the family....i will be disappointed if tony rats out and goes into wp....:)

    I don't think he will rat out his own crew, but the NY crew that's another story. I think Tony will have no problem sleeping at night knowing that he was the catalyst that sent Phil back to prison.

    I hope Butchie takes a trip through Satriale's meat grinder.

    He had some good qualities, but he just sounded so dumb, espcially when he was trying to sound intelligent!

    I hope Paulie survives....he really respects the game!

    He's the guy you love to hate.

    I was just thinking about this today. What ever happened to Artie Bucco?
    After last season I honestly thought that the Fed where going to use the Amex card thefts to pressure him into setting up Tony.

    Paulie is a great character, but I think he is done for. Not this up coming episode but the following one will probably be Paulie's last. The one I really don't know about is Bobby. I really have no idea what will happen to him.

    The character I really miss is Furio.

    Random thoughts...Butchie is the greatest character in a long time, I love when he;s involved. What a weasel. He reminds me of Wormtongue in Lord of the Rings (random reference I know). I think Phil is great too, and those two together are going to make some hot-headed decisions against NJ. Paulie has been annoying to me for a few seasons now, especially with his mom and all, and why would they schedule the showings on the same day? He needs to go. I think the idea of Tony in witness protection won't work (also reminds me too much of Goodfellas, getting the paper and all), as we have seen Tony trying to appreciate life more and he's just not capable, but probably is most likely to happen. Carmela is going to play a huge factor in the final episode I think, but at this point I have no idea how it's going to end. Though Melfi is just a way for us to see into Tony's mind, will anything evolve in their sessions, or will Tony go to her outside when things spiral?....Benny's going to die by the hands of NY I can picture...Maybe AJ will die in some stupid way being involved with his crew? I just don't know.

    I will say Imperioli was maybe the best actor on the show, with Gandolfini and Falco close behind.

    I finished season6 last night, now just yet to see the last 8episodes.

    its good to know there are those of you who appreciate the depth of the show, my other half overhears me talking about the sopranos with a mate and finds it hilarious.

    So Tony ends up killing chris, for me removing moltisanti takes something from the show.

    For Tony to turn into a snitch is completely contradictory to his character the entire show. Mamasan is completely right about this.

    Allnitething, you have made some excellent posts about the show in the last few days and really opened my eyes to a few things but there is no way that Tony would do that. He killed Chistofuh so he could have one more way of insulating himself from the FBI. I think you are right about his epiphany in Vagas, but it is not in his nature to turn rat. I cannot see it happening and it would totally ruin the show for me.

    I'm surprised to see so many think Tony is still going to try to do the right thing and put his wife and kids before the mob. I just don't see it. He has gotten darker and darker this whole mini-season and seems to be clearly headed for tragedy. I suppose we have all come to like Tony in some sick way and want him to somehow get saved but that's not what happens in the mafia. By the end of this season I expect him to go to war with Phil and lose. A fitting ending would be Tony's house blows up with all of them inside. (or so we think until the movie comes out and everyone ran out the back door to see the ducks had returned.)
