question about the series

i will admit that i caught on to the sopranos a bit late in the game. i only started watching during season 3...so i had to back track to see all the others but it was well worth it. i was hearing a lot about the show coming to an end....so for all you sopranos buffs, is season five going to be the last one....or are they going to have one more after this? do the producers know when they want the show to end?

They will do a 6th season with 10 episodes. Production will start in early 2005.
