There's a difference

There's a difference between being educated and entertained by a story and liking it- because we think that other people might be educated and entertained by it. I love the Sopranos, and I hate hate the fundies, but still- I found this cheesy. Paulie had the better story-line in this episode.

Hesh had the best line

While I thought the scene was a bit forced (the pastor just walks into a mobster's room and starts a creationist debate?), it was exceptionally well-played. Tony's forbearance was intriguing -- he doesn't buy that stuff, does he? Michael's reasoning that Adam & Eve couldn't coexist with a T Rex is brilliant. I think Hesh had the best line, though -- when his wife says that stuff about being friends to the Jews, he says, "You wait." Chilling and true and scary and spot on.

Cheesy

Agree with Christi - cheesy, not natural, no subtlety, not good in the way the Sopranos has consistently been. Very disappointing.
