Soprano's ........
 

So when is the 5th season starting, looking at HBO website, I cannot tell if thats repeats or new season.

If it has started what have I missed?

Last year season sucked....but James Gandolfini accepted an 11 million deal for Season 5... so he better deliver 11 million dollars worth of action.

Anyone know whats up with the Soprano's?

Gandolfini (or however you spell it) is still in negotiation with HBO concerning his salary I think.... I may be wrong though.

Forest is that you dahlink'?

He has already signed for a million per episode, and the next season does not start until September.

Thanks for the info. I hope season 5 is not as lame as 4.

Season 4 was a little better than 3 at least. We absolutely love the Sopranos, even bought all 4 seeasons on DVD, but stopped about the middle of season 3...not enough blood & guts ;) I will say I cant wait to see what Carm does, lol, I hope she runs away with the Italian guy.

Didnt the creator say he didnt wanna do more then 6 seasons or something like that? Anyway, that show just rules. I hope they keep that shit forever and switch bosses every couple of years.

Thanks for clearing that up for us... :321GFY

:winkwink:

Should I go rent the 4 seasons on DVD?

The 4th season is out on DVD? I don't see it advertised on half.com

I am a real bad Soprano addict myself. I don't Carm is going to go with the Italian. I think he will be whacked if they bring his storyline back.

S4 isn't out yet. Probably won't be til Sept or so...

And, if you thought S4 wasn't up to par... you weren't paying attention.

Ok, observant one, what was the key points to keep sight of then in Season 4. I need a benchmark to see if I was paying attention or not :-)

I am serious about this question, BTW.

My bad, you are right, season 4 isnt out yet ;) We saw that one on tv. I dont know if the Italian guy (Fredrico or Fernando or whatever ;) will be whacked though, because remeber how Tony was all upset because "his best man had just disappeared". I dont thinkk Tony thinks he tried to push him in the helicopter. And whats up with the priest, my priest never came to my house late at night to eat ziti & watch movies ;) LOL

Yeah, that thing with the Priest was the the hinting of things to come with Carm....what do you predict in Season 5?

I think its funny as hell to see Tony living in the pool house! I still am not sure if this is the last season or not. If so then hopefully it will get better! I want to see the Italian guy come back. Oh wait!! I just remembered that Carm told Tony about him, how she felt about him. Oh shit, I guess your right, if he comes back, hes gone. I think he will bring all his big guys to NY to try & knock off Tony. I think Tonys life will be threatened again. Thats when it got good. The FBI is coming in too!! It ended last season with them putting that wire in the basement right??

February, 2005.

I thought seasons 3-4 were equal in quality, neither rating with the first two. By the fourth, there were too many new watchers with unreal expectations of weekly wackings. The series was never like that.

Furio is a bad ass, if I was Tony I sure wouldn't want Furio after me. ;>

It's not like Chris or Paulie could stop him.

My favorite Furio moment was when they went to hassle that doctor on the golf course and he goes "you gotta bee on your hat" and then hit the guy in the head. That was hilarious with the accent.

I forget where the last season left off, I think the FBI bugging was in that lamp that Meadow took to college, I don't think there are any more buggings?

I am not looking for whackings all the time, I am just looking for "flow" and the focus was so benign within Tony's own family and not so much mob oriented which is what set this series on fire.

However there are alot of Italian groups that have sued HBO over this series and lost.

I liked seasons 3+4 but we been there and done that, now we need something else knowing this series may come to an end after Season 5....

Shame, its the bomb but somebody else will come up with something similar, there are always opportunists :-))
