Looks like Paulie's turning his back on the Soprano family in that picture. I'm sure that's intentional... look at the way Janice is looking at Ralph in that picture. That's in fitting with their characters this season.

Yup...this picture says a thousand words.

Is the new pic I posted on last page a pic a parody of anything? Annie Liebovitz's first pic was a perfect The Last Supper

There was a picture that I saw in some magazine when, I believe, Six Feet Under started and almost every major character from the three Sunday night HBO series' (Sex, Six, and Sopranos)were pictured.

I thought it was a great picture, and was wondering if someone has it or knows where it can be found.

I posted it here about a year ago, but that's long gone...

I finally got a chance to watch this tonight. What a great episode! That whole 'crib/tv-tray' thing had me rolling with laughter. Looks like the show hasn't lost anything in its long hiatus. I'm really beginning to like the idea of Chris as Tony's right-hand man. They can do stuff that Tony would never ever trust to anybody else now. I can't believe I have to wait 6 more days for the next episode!

p.s.: HBO in HD ROX!!

I'm thinking...

Spoiler:
Danielle & Adriana have some hot lesbian action. I thought this is what they were hinting at with A & Carmela's tennis instructor in the third season, but it never happened.

...okay...so it's a hope of mine.

oh yeah...though what they pulled with Fairuza annoys me [it reeked of "Luca$"-ism], i'm glad they did it. I agree with Patman. This chick is hotter.

I think someone else mentioned this as well, but I definitely think we're being set up for a Christopher event. Somewhere down the line he's gonna be the trigger man on Tony, it's just a matter of setting up the circumstances. Paulie will definitely be involved...probably helping to talk him into it.

Of course, maybe that's too obvious which means.....

No way, I don't see Chris doing anything but helping Tony in whatever Tony wants to do (whether that means going against Carmine or Paulie I don't know). There is definitely going to be some mob-on-mob violence in this season; I can just smell it.

I haven't watched The Sopranos in sometime. I once had HBO just to watch it, but I got burnt out after taking in a season one marathon. I have seen all of the first season, a couple of episodes of the second (the first one and last one) and none of the third.
I just recently ordered all three seasons off of deepdiscountdvd.com for about $180.00, the largest DVD purchase in my life. I hope it is worth it. I did love the show, I just never had the time to watch it when it came on the air.
Can anyone recommend someplace to go or some books to get that might enlighten me as to what these people are currently up to?
Also, when exactly did the seasons start? Was there an unusually long gap between seasons three and four or something?

This is what I don't get -

The undercover agent's baby thing really messes up the show's continuity. The baby looked maybe four or five months old. If
she had the baby before going undercover it doesn't make sense, as the baby would have probably been fairly newborn, and she'd be on maternity leave. if the baby was any older at the time, he'd probably be walking by now.

If only six months have gone by, then she was pregnant when she first went undercover, and the baby would be only a month or two old, and there's no way she'd leave her baby to infiltrate the mob with her child at that age.

See, season 3's last episode was late wintertime (Jakie Jr. getting shot and falling into a patch of snow) - Season 4 starts in late Summer - that's at least six months. - If she had her baby before the undercover work he would be a lot older than what was shown. - If she had it after, she would've been totally prego when she first met Adrianna

Also, there is no way the FBI would put someone undercover right after having a baby. Even if they did - the baby would be much much older than they showed.

Side note: Anyone else watch the sopranos in HD? Last night was the first time I ever watched it in HD, and its freakin' amazing. I could see the little hairs on Tony's hands stand up when he was angry; it was that good.

Does anyone know the name of the song playing at the end of the episode during the credits. I think it was also playing when Tony went to get the paper

I think the picture looked very dark comapared with previous seasons. Did anyone else notice this? Just look at the Melfi scene and how dark her office was. I just didn't like it.

I watched this episode again last night and I payed close attention to the scene in the 'Italianisimo' (sp?) restaurant w/ Tony and the city counselman.

I didn't notice this in my first viewing, but it looked like Dr. Melfi was in the background and when she saw Tony sitting at a table, she left the restaurant. Anyone else notice this?
