Yes!! I love the show, but am a little disappointed in the direction it has taken for the last season.

Oh I have watched it since the beginning...this season is discouraging...maybe because it relly show Tony's true sociopathic nature...and although Carmella is devout religiously, she knows what Tony does, but accepts the "stuff" anyway...

Even the kids know...

I would have thought there would have been a little more action and FBI interaction since this is the last season and thought they had built it up a bit more than what is going on.  The phychitrist (spelling :-P) are getting to much air time.

watching every part (if i don't forget) it's really amusing, but i haven't watched previous seasons so..i can't say wether it's gone bad or anything.

Can you say, "jumped the shark."

Brendhan:

I know the meaning well, shame when it happens - but every series seems to make the effort to squeeze either another season or better ratings and story-lines by doing it. Rarely does it work out. Adding new characters or swerving away from your plot is almost always a last ditch effort. I don't know why the Soprano's needed this, but frankly the last two seasons were CRAP - except for this last week's show, the others were all pretty good. When you are counting down the episodes and shooting dozens of endings WITHOUT cast interaction to "Protect" the ending, continuity surely falls apart - let's hope they save the best for these last two episodes starting nex week.

In Heroes, the Father of the Cheerleader was suppose to be a bit character, but turned into the most complex of all and is written into all shows - I guess this isn't Jumping the Shark, but it surely an example of what SHOULD happen in a show.

P.S. I still hate CBS for cancelling out Jericho - freakin' idiots!

Well, The Sporanos is over June 10th...series finale...should be interesting..I will miss seeing "the family", I am just hoping that the finale pulls it all together, brining us to an "ah ha moment"...coming from an huge Italian backround, it has been fun to watch "da guys"...and find out what dish Carmella would be preparing next...
