shit the link doesn't work! so here's the article:


David Chase, creator of "The Sopranos," is prone to expressing the theme of each season of his show in bite-sized pieces. Last season, for instance, was partly about "the limitations of family and friendship," while the previous one had the disintegrating marriage of Tony and Carmela at its center.
The next season, which is most likely -- but not entirely certain to be -- the final one for the hugely successful HBO series, will be about money, Chase says. The cast and crew have been in production on season six for several weeks now, and it's currently scheduled to premiere early next year.

"I started thinking about what are these people really about, what are they really after. It's going to be about money and about materialism, buying stuff, consumerism," Chase told an audience in New York Tuesday (May 24) about the coming season, according to Reuters.


LOS ANGELES (Zap2it.com) David Chase, creator of "The Sopranos," is prone to expressing the theme of each season of his show in bite-sized pieces. Last season, for instance, was partly about "the limitations of family and friendship," while the previous one had the disintegrating marriage of Tony and Carmela at its center.
The next season, which is most likely -- but not entirely certain to be -- the final one for the hugely successful HBO series, will be about money, Chase says. The cast and crew have been in production on season six for several weeks now, and it's currently scheduled to premiere early next year.

"I started thinking about what are these people really about, what are they really after. It's going to be about money and about materialism, buying stuff, consumerism," Chase told an audience in New York Tuesday (May 24) about the coming season, according to Reuters.


"That's all they care about. All that stuff helps them not to think about larger issues."
The series' last original episode aired in June 2004, and, mirroring the amount of time it was off the air, will pick up roughly two years after the death of Adriana (Drea de Matteo) and the arrest of New York mob boss Johnny Sack (Vincent Curatola). Chase didn't offer up many other details on the fates of Tony (James Gandolfini), Carmela (Edie Falco) or the rest of the cast.

Chase also won't be pinned down on whether season six will be the last for "The Sopranos." Although it's widely assumed that's the case -- and Chase at one point Tuesday said "No. No more," -- he won't close the door for sure yet.

"I really enjoy it, so why leave something like that?" he says. "It's just a question of whether the story works out creatively in six seasons, which I think it will. Then we probably shouldn't do a seventh."

Pressed on the issue, though, he admits that "It is possible."
