It looks like JD's free of competition...

No easy ending for HBO's `The Sopranos'

By FRAZIER MOORE, AP Television Writer Today at 8:59 am

Tony Soprano carries on.

The much-awaited conclusion of HBO's "The Sopranos" arrived Sunday night in a frenzy of audience speculation. Would New Jersey mob boss Soprano live or be killed? Would his family die before his eyes? Would he go to jail? Be forced to enter witness protection? Would Brooklyn boss Phil Leotardo, who had ordered a hit on Tony, prevail?

In the end, the only ending that mattered was the one masterminded by "Sopranos" creator David Chase. And playing against viewer expectations, as always, Chase refused to stage a mass extermination, put the characters through any changes, or provide his viewers with comfortable closure. Or catharsis. After all, he declined to pass moral judgment on Tony -- he reminded viewers all season what a thug Tony is, then gave him a pass.

No more excuses, take your freezeframe outside!
I really do enjoy the programing on Sunday eve.

Better be careful there JD. We don't know what happened to any of them.

You stir the pot here and you might do a disappearing act hmm.gif

I remember the photo with of underworld characters that JD used to keep in his cube. The scene was fairly intense... I think the article refered to JD as "Stevie the snitch"

My aunt has lived on Brady Street for 30 some years, and on her corner is an Italian restaurant.  Some mob hotshot used to be there all the time and I remember when I was a kid he got whacked as he was leaving the joint.

Ya just never know.

Hmm, that sounds familiar. I'll have to ask my aunt. I think the place is shuttered now. Still there, but not in business.

I think it happened the weekend before I was sleeping over because I remember the police tape still being there and everyone in the family was talking about it.

It's funny, my aunt, who's an EXTREMELY religious person (she's the closest to a living saint I've ever known, spends all her time helping those in her community less fortunate than her) was so upset the mob guy got killed.

She said he was such a nice guy and so good to the people in the neighborhood.

Those guys back in the day actually had a code of ethics ya know. Weird. They'll shake business owners down for cash, kill people as soon as look at em', but yet they'd protect their neighborhood.

Oh they're the worst.

There's one that works the off-ramp on the freeway at the 26'th street exit heading east.

He's there everyday for about 14 hours (sun up to a little after sundown). For crying out loud, when does he find time to get his booze weirdface.gif
