    I figured out HBO's evil plan: They gave us the channel Sunday for free so we could watch Soprano's and Entourage just once. I guess they figured we'd get addicted and want to order HBO. They're right.

    Hey... GREAT start to the last season...

    Is this a thread to discuss the show?? I don't want to spoil it to those catching up...

    It's discussion. People can stay away until they catch up.

    I don't know. For such a great show getting ready to come to its end I was expecting something different. I thought they were going to start tying up lose ends instead of making the gentle giant Bobby B. into some kind of cold blooded killer. Maybe Tony manipulated him or maybe Janice is starting to rub off on Bobby but they don't have time for that with only 8 episodes left. Tony's alpha male status is affected for sure though, and who knows what else Bobby is capable of now.

    Under the boardwalk...someone's c**k in Janice's mouth...under the boardwalk :D

    Priceless :cool:

    I really think they're setting this up to be big. I don't know why people don't like the 'slow' times, there's INCREDIBLE character development, foreshadowing and real cinematic genius that goes into some of these scenes. We wouldn't love the characters the way we do if it weren't for these scnenes/episodes. If it were just a 'mob' show, we wouldn't care so much. He real family has just as much importance to the show as his mob one, and that's what makes this show the best ever.

    As for the final eight...
    - I bet Bobby will get tapped by the FBI and Tony will get wind and take him out. That incident in the laundromat has some significance, the ripped shirt, etc. Janice may flip after this and either a)finish the job her mother didn't with Tony or b)Kill Bobby. Her 'men' have met untimely ends (Richie, Ralph)

    - The FBI closing in. These little things (gun in the snow, French guy, etc) will build up and he'll get nabbed. Will he go on trial with Johnny, Feech, Bobby?, etc testifying against him? Will he enter witness protection to rat out the NY crew, so he and his family can move to Arizona (Finnerty fantasy life???)

    - Chrissy is a goner. One way or another.

    - With all of Paulie's 'issues' lately, will he snap? Will he start a major bloodbath with NY? Who was that guy in Kaisha in Phil's hospital room, the little Pesci-looking wiseguy starting shit with T? Will he make a move and take someone out? Sil? Paulie? Chris?


    Can't wait...so many questions left unanswered and so many directions this show could take. I'm confident they'll do right though. People are so anxious that things haven't happened. SO much can and has happened in a single episode that they can certainly fit a TON into these final 8. Bada Bing! :cool:

    Yahoo posted an article about last nights show and spilled the beans about what happens to Johnny Sack without giving any kind of spoiler warning. I'm pissed cause its big, and I didn't want to know.

    the best part of watching the first of the final nine episodes was the part when my friend's girl quit talking during the early minutes of the show. when it was over, we realized she had passed out. thank you god.
    Down the street you can hear her scream youre a disgrace
    As she slams the door in his drunken face
    And now he stands outside
    And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool
    He cries oh, girl you must be mad,
    What happened to the sweet love you and me had?
    Against the door he leans and starts a scene,
    And his tears fall and burn the garden green

    janice's story was funny as hell about their father shooting through their mother's beehive hair-do..when carmella ask's about the residue or what happened to the hair and she says the next day she had a bob...i lost it!!
    Oh dear dad
    Can you see me now
    I am myself
    Like you somehow
    I'll ride the wave
    Where it takes me
    I'll hold the pain
    Release me

    I agree. If someone is waiting for big things to happen all the time and to have everything tied up, you should prepare yourselves to be disappointed based on the article I read in Entertainment Weekly. Chase said he tries to make it like real life where many things are left unanswered.

    The guy in Phil's hospital room who was Pesci-looking is a guy in Phil's crew who an episode or so before was trying to convince Phil to kill Tony. Phil said he wouldn't whack a boss.

    Last week's show was a great preview of things to come. You bring up some great points. I for sure think Bobby messed up with that shooting. Chrissy for sure could be a goner. Paulie is gonna snap soon. Phil's crew want a war. Maybe his guys kill him cause he's not up for a war. I can't wait and yet am sad only 8 more are left. Gonna miss this show.

    Now THAT was a great fucking episode, and is why I'm going to miss this show so much. Get ready. Phil is going to start some shit. One question though...what happened to Chris' other sponsor. When did Shooter McGavin enter the picture?

    Hahahaha!!! Shooter McGavin. I did a double take when he came on the scene. Nice they showed more Christopher this episode. And if I'm not mistaken, the guy he clocked in the head with the glass award is the guy from "Wings". Whaaat??? They're pulling all sorts of characters this season. Poor Johnny Sack. I always liked him. Good episode, as always.
    We’ll meet again, but not yet…not yet.

    A fucking GREAT episode tonight!!!

    LOL...my buddy and I both caught Shooter McGavin!!!

    I eat pieces of shit like you for breakfast!

    Ahh, that was a funny movie.

    But i digress.....some shit is going to go down with Phil Leotardo. That was great the story behind his name. "Because they're stupid!"

    And the shit between Tony and Chris is going to get intense as well.

    Sopranos seems to be going out with style. I sure will miss the show.

    I'm pretty sure Chris's last sponsor is now a main character on "Knights of Prosperity" so I'm guessing he had to choose one or the other. As far as Shooter, that actor will always be known as that. My friends and I said the same thing during the show. It's almost like George, Kramer, and Elaine.

    i couldn't stop laughing at the whole "story of the leotardo's".

    great ending to the episode, too. things are about to escalate.
