20. Why show loyalty to her?
I'm only speaking in mob-terms : she was ready to rat on the family and tried to turn Chrissy.

24. Disagree
Sal is almost unquestionably loyal to T. Until tonight, he never seemed to say more than a few words at a time.

Paulie is a also very loyal.

Adrianna got pinched by the feds, and was loyal to Christopher, but violated the cardinal rule of the mafia.

It does free her up for the exciting role of Joey's sister on "Joey"!

36. Sal disobeyed Tony during that Christopher Columbus Day debacle.
and remember when Paulie was crying to Johnny Sack about Tony and no one visited him in prison and wah wah wah? Then he told Johnny about Ralph telling fat jokes about Jenny.

6. And this was the exciting conclusion?
Edited on Sun Jun-06-04 08:58 PM by TheWizardOfMudd
Oh well, I guess there's nothing wrong with a happy ending.

Edit: So, how long before "Sopranos: The Movie" comes out?

16. HBO didn't say for sure
But they're not going to film the next season until 2005, with I think an expected final 10 episodes in 2006.

The Johnny Sacks part at the end was lame.

18. Sorry!
Too many Sopranos threads to track everyone's predictions. I said Tony B would whack Johnny S. At least I got that Johnny Sack got, ahem, taken out, albeit by the FBI.

29. Nah, nah. What is this you are askin.
Christopher was politely requested to make his cousin go away. As in, take care of it. Christopher didn't do the main work, you know.

But it turns out, that, he was asked a favor from his uncle. And, this, my friends, is not an uncle I would want to disappoint. If you are askin me. Which you are not, and I understand that you are not askin.

I think I'll be takin a little vacation now. Not a drive. Not a drive.

Whacking his cuz was just another one.

Edited on Sun Jun-06-04 09:37 PM by chimpsrsmarter
i don't know about the rest of you but when i saw tony looking over johnny Sack's shoulder, who it ended up being was not who i initially thought it was. Loved the last couple of minutes, he looked like shit, tough day at the office.

30. The women seem to have become less and less important
and I am finding the men almost completely repellent.

The death of Adrianna really did me in.

37. This isn't exactly a "realistic" Mafia show--
otherwise I personally would not be interested in it. So much of the show centered around TS's personal relationships. Women played very important parts in the SHOW--as opposed to the MAFIA-- during preceding seasons-- starting with Livia, Tony's mother, from whose death the show has never recovered, Dr. Melfi, whose relationship with Tony has now lost most of its juice, Carmella, Adrianna, his sister, his daughter, etc.

A lot of my interest in the show is fading as these relationships become less prominent, the psychological aspects diminish and the men are more and more revealed to be the total scum that they are.

32. Damn! I'm so jealous!
I don't even get cable tv anymore, let alone HBO...my next door neighbor did, though, and he was nice enough to tape the episodes and loan them to me...Unfortunately he moved away after season three...On Memorial Day I stopped by a Blockbusters, they were having a sale and I bought the entire season four for $25...just finished watching it last night and I want to know what's going to happen next! I'm really out of touch, dont you know? At least I got to see the death of Ralph (truly a most despicable character I've yet to meet)...I found Christopher's mob style intervention interlude darkly humorous as well as the whole nonverbal thing between Tonty and Carmela in re the broken fingernail and birdseed money...Plus Tony, after quitting therapy, calling Dr. Melfi up but saying nothing...
Tony Soprano is such a marvelous and complex character I still hope he will somehow find redemption, although the odds are definitely against that happening...What I got from watching season four is that everybody, even his most trusted inner circle , harbor thoughts of replacing him...
Just curious...does Furio come back this season?
ALso Steve Buscemi is one of my favorite actors...I just know I'm missing a lot missing this season!

33. Overall, for a Season Finale...
..it wasn't that great. Not much of a cliffhanger, and the episode with Adrianna getting taken out was better...IMHO
