IMO if during the NY-NJ war the lupertazzi kill Tony the show would jump the shark but maybe because Gandolfini was paid 1 milion a episode and so the other actors. So at the end is a money question.

The Mafia Is Not Primarily An Organisation Of Murderers. First And Foremost,The Mafia Is Made Up Of Thieves. It Is Driven By Greed And Controlled By Fear.

Because David Chase has a bit of contempt for the audience and was probably not too happy the show had gotten as popular as it did. Gandolfini was also a pain in the ass to work with apparently. Brilliant on the show obviously, but if the star is disappearing 2 weeks at a time and holding up production and behaving irrationally and the cast is demanding more $$$$, time to wrap it up.
