Just a really lame story line that could've been wrapped up in two episodes......But it lasted all freakin' season.

i like the season in general, but i have to say, the finale was a bit of a let down.

Really? I think it utterly paled in comparison to the first three.

According to what I've heard the last eqisode shown was not the finale, there are definite plans to show between four and six more episodes to conclude those episodes shown earlier in 2006.

I'm sure someone's warming up their flame thrower now, getting out my flame resistant suit, now.

I've only seen the first half of this past season but so far I have to agree with Cail, it's really boring so far.

Alas, I no longer have HBO, so I'm gonna miss it. Given the way the last part of the season was, 'm not too bummed.

I'd be surprised if Chrissy lives out the season.

I kept wondering about all the lake shots, and the red boat....yeah, David Chase, we get it, you're reminding us of Godfather II, blah blah blah.

well...hmmmm.

not unexpected. but shocking nonetheless. i got a bit confused with the shrink scenes. one i think tony was dreaming cause carmella woke him up and he asked her if he'd been talking in his sleep, but the one after that, was he awake?

i liked the second shrink scene really well. it was quintessential tony.


other than that i'd have to

Going against the grain

Post by taraswizard »

Red boat in GFII, are you talking about Fredo's boat in the going fishing scene?

Well, I've liked the episodes we've seen so far.

Speculations and spoilers:
Spoiler
the Christopher Multisanti situation in the wrecked SUV, OMfG (the definition of a Man of Will in the Keyser Swozie sense).

Episode two starts with the construction work that uncovers the old body of a long dead bookie. Then Christopher's dead, leading to; IMO, the circumstances of Andriana La Serva's death are gong to being what bites Tony's crew in the ass (points of support, Andriana's mom ranting at Carmela on the church fair, Carmela's dream while she was in Paris with Rosalie Aprile, Christopher's confession to JT before he shot JT about how he gave the whole situation up to Tony to handle) Unlike the long dead bookie Andriana's body will be fairly easy to ID, and no one can blame a long dead Jackie or Richie Aprile. (I know Richie is not officially dead).
Just my $0.02, YMMV. And I'm probably wrong. Did I read somewhere that David Chase wants to make movies using some of these characters?
