His other son is one of the Jasons, who is AJ's age. He's the one who instigated beating up the black kid on the bike.

Argghhh!!!! How can I last until next week to find out what happens?!?!! Especially with that "Major last episode spoiler" lurking about!!!!

Same here. And how can it all be summed up in 1 hour? Madonne!

Well, think of it as the last hour of a movie. In a movie, they can sum up a person's whole life in just an hour!

They told the story of Vito Corleone and his sons in less than three hours.

I've made that point to day with some of the guys around the office to which they said, "Well then Paulie should die and so should Phil". I think there is a lot more to this (final) episode than someone getting killed.

Considering all the haiatuses the Sopranos has been on between seasons, I think it is conceivable to think that the images we're seeing up til now are "old," and this last episode, "Made In America," is the "most recent," and it will show all the characters even older than they were in "The Blue Comet."

That said, I think the show will fast forward a couple years to where the Sopranos are now. Two years forward, three, I cannot say. A lot can change in two-three years.

I know with only 1 episode left, probably nothing will become of this, but didn't Silvio take all the family's records out of the safe at the Bing? I would assume that all those records are in the hands of local and federal authorities now. Just an observation.

Hmmmm...another way for Agent Harris to get Tony to flip now that he has what he wants.

Who I think will die in Made in America

Butch DeConcini
Albie Cianflone
Carlo Gervasi
Phil Leotardo

The Pine Barrens episode is on A&E now.

Tony's crew members blow the Pine Barrens thing and then they blow the hit on Phil. When you think about it, how Mickey Mouse are the Sopranos?

Tony and his people have been "Mickey Mouse" since I saw Tony B and Chrissy go up to Uncle Peco's house upstate to dig up the checkalavocian and the Flying Bureto Brothers. They find the skeletons, they bust up the skeletons into little iddy-biddy pieces...then put all the pieces into a bag and throw the bag off the side of the dock.

Duh. Why not scatter the pieces? You break them up just to put them all in one bag? And Tony Soprano said "good job." He don't know any better, himself!

Excellent point Lou!

a bag of crushed bones? Kind of hard to get evidence from that. Why make more work than necessary?

Yeah, the Sopranos are a Mickey Mouse crew, that's why they are so entertaining.

Its not hard to get evidence from that! On this show called Bones, this lady called "Bones" put together a decayed skeleton found in the lake - pieces of bones found in a lake - and put together a whole girl! And they figured out who it was, too!

You're both comparing a TV show to a real life scenario that involves another TV show.



I know, its fun!

okay, you put it together and find out who it was...the whole idea was for them not to be found on the property.

Oh.

By the way, did you notice the change in Tony's driver? He used to be a tall, well built, strapping young guy. But see what happens when you let yourself go. He's now short, fat, ugly, and gets the flu.

Question.

Last night while channel surfing, I came upon the part when they go to the safehouse. Did I misunderstand or does one of Tony's guys ask, when they are all in the living room, if he can order "A Beaz" (Pizza)?

I heard that too Don Cardi

Absolutely correct about the pizza.

I checked my tape and you can plainly hear someone saying they want meatballs, someone says "No vegetarian pizza" and you also hear another man say that they should send over some paper plates because "we ain't got no dishes here."

Can't wait until Sunday, but it's almost like losing relatives.

Ah well...this talk of food has, naturally, made me hungry.

Back to the kitchen...

Signor V.

Why would they order pizza? Couldn't Paulie whip up some macaroni and meatballs ala Clemenza???

they had nothing in the house

You got me hungry. For the finale I'm ordering pizza - but vegetarian.

I don't even eat vegetarian salads, much less pizza!

That was Carlo.

My mother made a salad that I would have given my eyes to eat. You would have too.

I've been meaning to say this for awhile...

When Sil kills the guy and they focus on the dead guy's white shoes, it's great foreshadowing to when Sil is polishing his white shoes right before he gets shot.
