The Sopranos

I don't usually add a "mood" to these posts but I have this time because for the past two evenings I watched three dvds from The Sopranos last season. Silly me. I don't know why I forgot (or more, didn't notice) that the fourth/last is still in my netflix queue!!! arghhh. This means I have to wait a couple of weeks to finish up the series as I won't be around next weekend.

Have you watched The Sopranos previously, or is this the first time?

I'm not so big on gangsters.

I tried to watch the first disc of the first Sopranos season and couldn't get through the first ep.

The Wire is what works for me. And season 4 is on dvd at the start of next month!

Love, C.

I have been watching it DVD, season by season --I'd seen one episode (in the middle) on tv (a couple of season's in) and it didn't work for me but was intrigued so began to rent it. I've found it a fascinating and increasingly depressing show. James Gandolfini is terrific, playing Tony as a charming deadly sociopath. Every time you start to empathize with him again, he does something really ugly.
