i was kinda disappointed, but it looks like they are setting it up for a lot to happen...

i didnt like how they just started the season with paulie in jail, that was kinda lame...and i dont understand why he said that T never talks directly to him, i guess that was brought up when Tony said he will only corraspond through blood from now on, but come on, tony has always talked to paulie...he goes against him last season on one decision and now paulie is all mad?

also didnt like how meadow is going to go crazy it looks like from the previous for next week...

but i would give it a 4 or 6 outta 10 depending on where it goes next week

 

[Ameesh]

i liked it , good setup for future episodes.

I always like the Soprano's. Once you get into the characters, there is nothing dissapointing to me.

Heh.. I really liked the use of the song "World Destruction" by Time Zone with John (aka Johnny Rotten of the Sex Pistols) Lydon and Afrika Bambaataa. That brought me back to the 80's. Yes. I'm an old fart. Probably the same age as the directors and producers of the Soprano's.

You know.. I never gave a second thought to the lyrics back in the 80's, but it really rings true now.

World Destruction lyrics:

World Destruction
Speak about destruction. (x3)
This is a world destruction, your life ain't nothing.
The human race is becoming a disgrace.
Countries are fighting with chemical warfare.
Not giving a damn about the people who live.
Nostradamus predicts the coming of the Antichrist.
Hey, look out, the third world nations are on the rise.
The Democratic-Communist Relationship,
won't stand in the way of the Islamic force.
The CIA is looking for other detectives.
The KGB is smarter than you think.
Brainwash mentalities to control the system.
Using TV and movies - religions of course.
Yes, the world is headed for destruction.
Is it a nuclear war?
What are you asking for?
This is a world destruction. Your life ain't nothing.
The human race is becoming a disgrace.
The rich get richer.
The poor are getting poorer.
Fascist, chauvinistic government fools.
People, Moslems, Christians and Hindus.
Are in a time zone just searching for the truth.
Who are you to think you're a superior race?
Facing forth your everlasting doom.
We are Time Zone. We've come to drop a bomb on you.
World destruction, kaboom, kaboom, kaboom!
I?m going out of my mind that makes two of us-I?m going out of my mind
This is the world destruction, your life ain't nothing.
The human race is becoming a disgrace.
Nationalities are fighting with each other.
Why is this? Because the system tells you.
Putting people in faceless categories.
Knowledge isn't what it used to be.
Military tactics to control a nation.
Who wants to be a president or king? Me!
Mother Nature is gonna work against you.
Nothing in your power that you can do.
Yes, the world is headed for destruction.
You and I know it, the Bible tells you.
If we don't start to look for a better life,
the world will be destroyed in a time zone!
I?m in a time zone (x3) Speak about destruction (x1) I?m in a time zone (x3)
Speak about destruction (x1)

I was kind of dissapointed, they are trying to wrap things up this season and it shows. This is the last season, right? Why is Christopher shooting herion? Thats way outta character, he was a pothead. So herb is a gateway drug, eh? Pleeeze, no made guy like that would be bumping dope, or he'd be whacked soon. That FBI chick got so close to them and so fast, doncha think they would be a little more cautious? Paulie Wallnuts is another wierd situation. Who thinks he is gonna try to off Tone?

 

[Yossarian]

There will be one more season (at least) after this one. Paulie is going to go to the NY family.

 

[CATASTROPHY]

i downloaded and watched the 2nd,3rd and 4th episodes.Its getting interesting. Whatever happened to the russian commando that they failed to kill?

 

[Pliablemoose]

"There's 3 ways for a high profile figure such as myself to end things, dead, in prison, or there's a 3rd way, Family."

I'm wondering if:

1.) They'll wack the Dr's assistant/FBI agent?
2.) Jr turns states evidence or dies?
3.) We'll watch Christopher self destruct?
4.) Carmella gets her REIT's?

Do you mean the interior decorator who killed 16 Czechoslovakians?

 

[T2T III]

He was an interior decorator? I thought is was funny when Paulie dropped his remote control which hit the floor and broke into several pieces. However, yes, this is the commando who killed the 16 Czechs.

 

So who's going to die this year. My money's on Ralphie.

I forgot to mention that they changed the FBI chick from last season to this season. They even re-shot the scene when she meets Christopher's girlfriend. I don't know who the new FBI girl agent is, but the one that ended the season last year was Fairuza Balk. She was the girl that played Vicky Vallencourt (Adam Sandler's girlfriend) in The Waterboy.

I wonder if she just got tired of waiting around for the Soprano's to start a new season? It's been 16 months after all.

That's what Paulie thought Tony said through the cell phone static. It was really something about the "Department of the Interior".

Christopher has always had a problem with heroin, going back before their trip ti Italy.

Paully has been courting the NY boss for awhile, the NY boss wants him and is using Paully's situation to further win his trust.

The thing that made me go :Q was whenTony offered to buy Jr's land.. to "help him out", when he knew damn well the property value will be skyrocketing soon.

How did Tony's sister get back into the picture?
