Nancy Marchand's death forced, I think, a creative impetus onto the writers. But it's interesting watching it evolve after they kill Livia off - and with it, ostensibly, the entire opening premise of the show... But at what points does Livia crop up again, in Tony's therapy? In relation to what? When is her presence most noted, after-death?

6A and 6B are amazing; for me, the peak of television drama, along with season 4 of The Wire.
