Wait: did my cable just go out? What the #@*&? And then, after a few seconds, the credits roll, and we realize we've all been had. Or have we? Rather than give viewers an ending that was bound to disappoint fans who didn't want it all to end that way, we get to create the ending ourselves, in our own imaginations, in a whatever way we want.

And then there's the show's final trick, the one where Chase lovingly thumbs his nose at all us "Sopranos" fanatics. Will there be a sequel? A movie? How do you top the greatest TV drama of all time? As he often did, Chase gave us the answer in the form of a song: "Don't Stop Believing," which was playing as the credits roll. The band that performed it, by the way, was Journey. And what a wonderful journey it's been.
