Sopranos Finale

This is a good place to drop general and weird news, entertainment, and general show prep material that might be interesting to air talent or producers. Hot dog threads ALWAYS welcome.

Apparently a lot of the TV sites are putting a lot of weight behind the look on Tony's face... that either that wasn't Meadow that opened the door, or something was wrong with her.

It didn't occur to me until just now. Wasn't Tony's father whacked in front of him at a family restaurant?

I also heard that in the credits at the end they listed some of the people in the restaurant and one of the character names was Phil Leotardo's son. Is that true? If it is true maybe the story does end with Tony getting killed and the look on Meadow's face was her seeing the assailant moving toward Tony.

Ahh, who cares? Any further analysis would make me one of those annoying uber-fans who get off on arguing this type shit.

On the other hand, these kinds of questions make me wonder -- will we see this beome the most streamed "video-on-demand" program ever as people hear these ideas and want to review it for clues?

Has the final episode of this program become the most energizing of its fans yet?

Nunley is right. We are approaching uber geekdom. Of course, I spent 6 hours talking about The Matrix Reloaded after watching it twice in a row (sneaking into the second one) on the day it came out. Me and Marv Ellis and 6 hours of crazed speculation about what might happen in the next one. And look where that left us.

Looking for a new start and a quieter pace, Tony and Carm move to Hurricane, West Virginia to build a strip mall near a Walmart, during which a neighbor suffers an unfortunate accident.
I really thought that it was Tony and Carm were going to move to Lavalette where Tony would build a modest "dream house" for Carm and then go to work as an entrepreneurial business man that would eventually become a pillar of the community after a series of unfortunate bar fights proves that he is the meanest man in all of Wayne county.

Ooooops! Wrong character!

FWIW, I just finished watching the series finale of Sopranos a second time and the Bloomfield diner scene will go down in the history of the best suspense ever created by a director and cast in a finale. Sheer genius! It was gorgeous. Each of the characters in that scene are just the type of people that you see at supper time in a north Jersey diner. Knowing the ending and watching the life pass as life passes is awsome.

Now, onward to Big Love!

Funny how polygamists in Philly are just guys with a bunch of girlfriends and lots of money to purchase each of them a house.

i know the credits have already been mentioned here, but i found this in an r&r email that i thought was worthy of posting here.

“
R&R wrote:The Paul & Young Ron
Show,” had Little Steven Van Zant — who plays
Silvio Dante on the HBO series — in studio on
Monday morning, and, at the end of the interview,
he had this cryptic message for listeners:
“When you see the show a few times, start checking
out the credits at the end a little more closely.
There are some interesting things.”

I caught the second half of John from Cincinnati last night and I may be hooked. It was wild, though I must admit a weakness for anything surf related.

Prime time tv, that's anything that ends before 8, right?

Stock answer to the question, "how long did it take to get used to getting up that early?", I don't know yet, I've only been doing it for 20 years.
