Another great episode this season, and definitely the best since Season 3. This show should be up at the Emmy's for Best Drama and Best Comedy, the writing is great this year.

Only the Sopranos can pull off someone punching Humphrey Bogarts real-life wife in the face, and it turns out hysterical!

Has anyone noticed that Janice has had a very reduced role this season? I used to love her character when she was engaged to Richie Aprile, but she has gotten a bit annoying in the past 2 seasons, so maybe David Chase noticed.

I love this season because every sub-plot comes back to how it effects Tony, and that is what the show has missed the past two years.

I can't wait to see what happens next week......

How dumb of Frankie Valli and the other fella not to know they were being set up for a hit. That is such a classic setup for a fall - being blocked in, being diverted by someone, while someone else with a gun creeps up on your blind side.

They should have fucking better known better.

Can someone who recorded the entire episode check the end credits for the hooker that Christopher was with at the Viceroy?

Yeah, that was a little weak that they didn't realize it was a set-up. Plus the guy with the map was Italian, how many more hints do they need.

That episode was a riot! This season has been great.

I agree with Chris - that whore had some amazing tits.

I was waiting for Tony to tell Benny: You should respect Artie because he handled his own situation like a MAN, as opposed to running to ME for protection. You can take a lesson from that.

Well, her (the hooker's) nipples did have a bit of invertedness to them.

yeah but her boobs didn't move at all. My fiancee and I both thought they looked weird.

Now Chris' hooker on the other hand...

The Bing girls are usually gross with very bad "chemical balls" as Larry David would call them. While I think that Bing girl featured tonight still had implants, they were very nice and natural looking.

Yes, the Bing dancer last night had fake ones, but they were tastefully done.

I don't understand why Tony doesn't want Benny offed for running a credit card scam in the restuarant run by his childhood friend. I know he's soft since the coma, but COME ON!

I don't see HOW Bennie would be stupid enough to run the scam in the first place, let alone why Tony would let him live once he found out Bennie was doing it.

My guess is that Benny is a very good earner. I agree - I'm surprised that Benny would try that.

Whether or not you find it "stupid", it is considered respectful of other members here to always put preview information in spoiler tags.

I think this is something like the second time that one of Tony's crew blatantly disagreed with one of Tony's decisions...
last week, Paulie got pissed when Tony said he was going to give Vito a pass...he said something like "Fuck that, blah blah blah." This week, it was Benny who told Tony straight out he was going to kill Artie and then Tony could kill him if he had to...and this was after Tony told him to forget about the whole thing. Maybe the beating Tony gave Muscles wasnt as effective as he though it would be.

Let's hope she's off looking for her humps...

Amen.

Definitely. The stripper was cute, the hooker was okay, but Charmaine was .

I wasn't impressed with the episode at all, for most of the reasons already covered.

I thought that the ending with Artie cooking was too Big Night for my liking.
