Whack Job

"WOKE UP THIS MOOOORNIN', GOT YOURSELF A GUN!" Intelligentsia, did you see that?! Did you see it?! Just finished watching the next to the last season episode of David Chase's masterpiece HBO series, The Sopranos. Damn! It was UGLY SO GOOD! Cats getting stabbed up, beat with bats, the whole nine! Lost? Fuggedaboutit! Desperate Housewives? Fuggedaboutit! Like Eddie Murphy's barber character famously said in Coming To America: "Dem shows is goood, but compared to The Sopranos, dem shows ain't shit!" At least on HBO, you don't have to deal with 35 minutes of ad interruptions! And Jersey's favorite TV organized crime family layed it down MAJORLY in Sunday's episode!
Not going to spoil it for anybody about what happened. If you saw it, you know. If you didn't, check it out on ON DEMAND. Otherwise, you're fugazi.I will say this, though, and you can check H2I archives on this (March 10 "Bada Bing!" post): ADRIANA AIN'T DEAD! Told you that bitch wasn't dead! That's the second time Ade (Drea de Matteo) has shown up in the new season since her widely "believed" wacking.
Not only did she show up again in Sunday's episode, but Carmela (Edie Falco), in the season finale preview that airs in two weeks, told Tony Soprano: "We should hire professionals to track Ade down." Granted, Carmela believes Adriana merely "ran off", but why would Chase even be going there? Because she's not dead, cafone!Ooooh, Wheee! Can't wait for the season finale in two weeks! Sad news is we have to cliff hang until early 2007 to see the final 8 episodes. But if you're down with The Sopranos, leave a comment. Would love to hear your opinions and reactions . . .
Stay tuned, Intelligentsia . . .

that last episode was like the Sopranos of old, it really was. I was really impressed.
I also find it funny that Drea left the Soprano's to go be on Joey, which has sense then gone off air, and now she's back!
I'm not sure whether or not I believe she's not dead, I think she's dead and they are taking it to some Sci/Fi ghost level!
The question is will I really care in 2007? Probably not!
miss ahmad, peep my theory on why i strongly believe adriana isn't dead...
with each character who was whacked on the show - from big pussy, to ralphie, to tony b (among several others) - we saw them get it on screen, in a very graphic way. ralphie was decapitated and thrown in the passaic river, not to mention how we saw big puss get it on the boat.
so in the case of adriana, my question is this: why would david chase cheat viewers out of the most highly-anticipated whack job on the show? we never saw adriana's body drop. we just saw her crawl out of the shot with silvio shooting at her. then the camera panned down to the ground sideways.
why didn't we see her get it between the eyes? we saw tony b get a shotgun blast to the face...no what i mean?
if you ask me, i think the feds may have outfitted her with a bullet-proof vest, and sil left her for dead. she may come back in 2007 to testify against the whole family.
if she come back and testify I will be a monkey's uncle!
Dude! That Soprano's epi was awesome on sooo many levels!
Aww, poor Vito...Fin will be breaking up with Meadow, now. lol
Aide is dead. Sorry.
adriana ain't dead, she's in the woods with the russian.
and it took long enough for this season to have a good episode. i was heated when i put it on hbo last week and it wasn't on.
