  • Or nothing happened

    Chase has such a bleak view of life, part of me had expected no resolution except that, once again, Tony and his wife and kids win out and escape all punishment.

    - Tony has beaten NY again and I'm sure the indictment will go away too.

    - Carmela is starting to make bigger and bigger piles of cash in her real estate business, which she started by using her husband's blood money to build a house that passed inspection only because someone put on some pressure.

    - A.J. has resolved his liberal angst and is once again just taking up space (cushy space, of course, thanks to mom and dad).

    - And Meadow has abandoned all her fancy talk of fighting for civil rights as she sets her sights on a big-bucks jpb defending sleazebags. Maybe Tony can get offr the hook of his pending indictment by testifyng against the county commisisoner that Meadow's future husband is representing.

  • Reminds me of the Seinfeld finale...

    Hardcore Seinfeld fans, if I remember correctly, HATED the finale. I, on the other hand, who frequently found myself so annoyed with the characters (especially Seinfeld himself) that I rarely tuned into the show, LOVED the episode-- primarily because it sent up those very character traits that I found so loathsome.

    In the case of The Sopranos, I would ask: How often does real life feature a denouement?
