    The shooting JT thing just came out of nowhere for me. One minute Christopher is talking about all this stuff that he knows and the next minutes he shoots the guy? I do agree that he shot him because he was pissed at Paulie and Tony. The whole scene with Christopher and JT didn't work for me at all. It seemed like the writers thought the audience wanted some bloodshed but they didn't want to kill anyone big (yet) so they just picked a side character to off.

    yeah, i agree with it coming out of nowhere. i actually thought he was going to beat the piss out of him again. poor JT, seemed like he was a battered wife at the hands of christopher. seems like everytime they were in a scene together, chris was pounding on him. but where it didn't really work for you, i thought it was well done. no biggie, we just see it differently.

    no doubt, it's been his best performance since season one, episode one. but i still can't stand the character.

    agreed...aj has always been the most annoying character to me. the acting was terrible and his character just pissed me off so much. but i have been actually impressed with is performance thus far this year.

    Chris seems like a total wreck maybe even more so than Tony. Now that he has relapsed I'm thinking he'll start shooting junk again. When its all said and done I don't think that will be the only shooting he does. If I had to guess I would say a major character, be it Tony or Paulie, dies at the hands of Chris.

    HOLY SHIT!!! I thought Tony was going to take out Chris, but that just fucking caught me off guard.

    Wow those therapy sessions were something else. Tony is for real one mean, self centered son of a bitch who just keeps getting worse. I'm sorry but I thought the car crash was lazy writing. If they were going to kill off a major character I wish it could have been done differently. Anyways, I always liked Chris, and I'll miss hiim.

    The peyote sequence. I don't get it.

    How much time is supposed to lapse between episodes? Last week AJ was suicidal, and this week he is enrolled in school and has his life back together. Lexipro must be some amazing shit.

    WOW....

    So bummed about Christopher. It's all happening...main characters are being killed off. The end is near.

    Excellent episode tonight!
    We’ll meet again, but not yet…not yet.

    agreed on all counts. killing him off in a car crash was kind of weak. the scene of them in the car though listening to comfortably numb was cool. i think tony realized while listening to the lyrics that he was going to have to kill him sooner or later. it was funny how paulie was feuding with chris even after he died--complaining about how everyone was at chris's wake instead of his mom's--that was funny stuff.

    i've liked this whole season. but i think this was the weakest episode. you knew chris was probably going to get killed, i was just hoping there would have been more to it than just a car crash. sucks cuz last weeks episode was so awesome because he was back on the wagon and throwing dudes out of windows and killing jt. you didnt know what he was going to do next. he was a wreck. i wish they would have built on that.

    3 episodes left. we'll see what happens. sad night.

    HOLLY FUCKING SHIT WHAT A GREAT EPISODE TONIGHT!!!



    Chris sad to see you go but you were bumming Tony out. heh Not a bad way to relax by going to Vegas for a few days. I have to let this one soak in and comment more later. Only three more left. It's really getting good now. :D

    I should have gone gambling when I took peyote. I was under 21 so I wouldn't have got to play anyway. Tony was sure winning there.

    great epsiode tonight! a lot of great scenes and fantastic acting. the pink floyd was nice too. like when tony's mother died, i thought gandolfini did a great job in this episode portraying the "fellow griever". the ending in vegas with the sunset and on peyote was beautiful. :)

    Wasn't Tony singing a few lines of comfortably numb last week when he came downstairs and saw AJ sitting on the couch? Just something I remembered from last week.

    Yeah, I remember that too.

    When Chris put the CD in, he asked Tony if he owned it, and Tony said yes. Then I remembered him singing it as he was walking downstairs last week. I thought it was clever writing.

    Yeah I remember that too because when he was coming downstairs, I had to keep singing the song to place what song it was.

    I thought it was silly the way Chris died at first but then when Tony had the dream where he was giving Dr. Melfi the reasons for it, it made sense to me. With Chris gone, I'm glad the show is ending soon. He wasn't always my favorite character but he did make things interesting.

    Does anyone else notice how dark this show has become? I was telling my wife after last night's episode that they have totally gone away from comedy. I understand it is the end but I really liked the fine line in the earlier seasons that they walked between comedy and drama.

    I liked the first half of the episode but I thought the second half really went downhill.

    the peyote sequence was pretty cool...but with only 3 episodes left i felt they should have focused on other issues...

    Got to agree with you. So much more going on in the show that should have been covered.

    I missed 10 minutes last night...the part where Chris dies. Had to take care of a screaming baby. Thank God for re-runs this week!

    I wonder about the storyline with AJ. Tired of it. His punk ass should have been the one that was offed on the show...would have made for an even more ballistic Tony.

    Great seeing Julianne M last night...as Carmela says "She's attractive". Uh, yeah!!!
    I love to turn you on

    You didn't think Tony rushing to the can to puke was funny??

    What about Tony's "and you should get one too." when Meadow asked if he was serious about a scotch.
