ok...
so which characters do people like and why?

personally i find the interaction between tony and christopher one of the most interesting aspects of the show. the whole tension within the ranks between family and generational links. it'll be interesting to see what happens to chris in the final season. do people see the whole 'family' falling apart or sitting ok for the future?

i love all the characters and i dont think i could ever choose a favourite. i think AJ is hilarious and i love the scenes between Tony and his kids.

also, in amongst all the sex and violence and drugs, the most entertaining scenes are the ones in the psychiatrists office. go figure.

ok new question:

favourite episode and why (with spoilers in spoiler format)

mine is "Employee of the Month"

its the greatest performance in the whole series by an actor. Melfi is phenomenal.

my favourite episode is university
it's the most confronting, features a lot of ralphi and tries hardest to make us dislike our favourite characters

anyways
time for a bump
because season 6 is nearly upon us :D
begins in the US March 12
so all those with emule can be watching again soon ;)

David Chase has said that after this season, there will be a 'bonus' mini-season of a further 8 episodes. i also heard that these added episodes are some story ideas once suggested for a sopranos 'movie'
oh yeah, and though it was to be expected, chase also confirmed that season 6 will focus heavily on johnny sacks and his NY trials

best show will be back soon :)

8 episodes is practically a whole new season anyway. And if there's gonna be a movie, we'll have plenty of Sopranos to look forward to for years to come :D

sorry i probably wasn't clear
those extra 8 episodes pretty much ARE the movie
chase said they're not going to make one because any plots they've thought of have been used already
so after those 'bonus' 8, that's the end of the sopranos

I think that one of the saddest things to come out of the end of the Sopranos, is that so many of the actors will disappear. Steve van Zant will go back to the E-street band, many others will end up playing supporting roles in el cheapo gangster movies.

Oh well at least there's still another 21 episodes of the finest television program ever still left.


Favourite Character - Junior
Favourite Episode - Whitecaps
Favourite Storyline - When they take over the gambler's sportstore and ruin his life.

well the wait is almost over (for americans and those with file sharing ;))
season 6 starts tomorrow night in the US

can't fucking wait!! :D

the first ep is called 'Members Only' and will, of course, focus on Tony and Johnny Sack's upcoming trial

At least you're not 3 seasons behind :p. I'm contemplating whether it's wise to sacrifice 39 odd hours of study time in the next couple of weeks to catch up :p

I bought the latest box set ages ago but havn't watched it yet because I still need to watch the other seasons first, I think i missed out on a couple. I'm so behind in what's been happening.
