Warning -- spoilers follow. Don't read if you haven't seen last night's show. Permalink to this paragraph

Last night's Sopranos took us right to the edge of a very tall cliff, let us look over the edge, and then said "Hang here till next week." Permalink to this paragraph

Like a rock concert where every member of the band gets to play one solo before walking off-stage, even minor characters remind you of their character.  Permalink to this paragraph

Oh it's going to be quite a show. They've carved out an ambitious stage, positioning Tony as a latter-day Michael Corleone. Great drama, acting, music, theatrics, chutzpah. Permalink to this paragraph
