What should Tony and crew eat on Sundae night?

Sopranos_l What do you want to see Tony and the remaining Sopranos clan (all 1.5 of them) chow on, Last Supper-style during Sunday's finale? It's tough. They've made some outstanding achievements in the consumption of cured meat, but there were also baked pastas, bialies, johnnycakes, a hilarious sushi phase, and that scaly fish that was also Big Pussy. I say they just pile all the MVPs into a sundae dish in the style of a Pizza Hut's New Pizza Lovers Pizza Topped With Smaller Pizzas, then garnish it with a freshly seared sausage off Tony's grill (pictured, plus ghost). Whatever they end up eating, the final scene will supposedly take place in the Glutton's favorite ice cream parlor, Holsten's. YUM.

In other Food & Drink Friday news, I'm leading a boycott against Mrs. Beasley's cupcakes for catering to Princess Paris. Won't you join me? It's really easy. You just buy cupcakes from any other bakery. I'm doing really well so far! It helps that I've never heard of it and don't live in L.A.

Finally, a new study — presumably conceived and carried out by total stoners — proves that Letterman watchers eat 44 percent more potato chips than people who don't watch TV, while Leno watchers eat only 42 percent more. (Why so slack, Jay fans? Crunch all you want, he'll make more.) Are these researchers serious? I hope so, because I'd like to be included in the next study. Being "given chips and put in a room" is pretty much all I ever want. That and cupcakes.

Chow Ciao!

Is anyone else having trouble viewing the TV Watches?

The series finale ending = movie.

Actually I thought the ending was pretty right on. Life continues...maybe not simply but it continues. Tony will always be looking up at the door for the next threat, Carmela will continue to worry in a detached way, AJ will continue to waffle and complain and Meadow will continue to talk big and struggle with the little things. The tension in the last scene, waiting for the big hit, was excrutiating and left us with a sense of the family's life fraught with normalcy, but danger. And as the FBI agent said "we're gonna win this one." But who knows if the next time they'll be so lucky. Keep us wondering and hoping for a movie. Classic Chase.

Onion rings, mmm.

I didn't know what was going on at first either... but with the NY crew taken care of and Paulie revealed not to be a traitor (rather the simpleton wel always thought)... Tony is still looking over shoulder and always will.

I think an earlier post meant to say postmodernist not existentialist. And, for the record, postmodernism sucks ... its just an excuse to be lazy.

Chuck U. Farley Sun, Jun 10, 2007 at 11:01 PM EST

WTF??? Did I lose my cable signal? I understand the motivation for an understated ending and all, but what about ending on cool? The show might as well ended on a shitty dream sequence.

Greg Sun, Jun 10, 2007 at 10:54 PM EST

I don't pay for cable but I called anyway after watching that episode. Great series but maybe too good for a weak ending like that. Me and David Chase need to have a sit-down.

abalone Sun, Jun 10, 2007 at 10:52 PM EST

Perfect existentialist ending

Oh, well... Sun, Jun 10, 2007 at 10:37 PM EST

I thought it was brilliant. I realize I'm in the minority, heavily, but I thought it was vintage Chase. We got everything we loved about the show in barely over an hour, and then instead of some cop-out explosive ending, we were left with burning questions never to be resolved. Given that a lot of shows try to put giftwrapping on their finales, I thought that was very different, very daring, and actually pretty satisfying. Just one man's opinion.

Crime doesn't pay and neither does watching this show.

Andy Signore Sun, Jun 10, 2007 at 09:56 PM EST

All of you complaining that he didn't resolve anything... get over it - what did you expect? What I'm upset about is David Chase making me feel like my cable went out - taking me out of the TV show and just making me mad. Were you trying to be Andy Kaufman and just mess with America? Nice work you ahole. I'm so glad its over.

david Sun, Jun 10, 2007 at 09:51 PM EST

that's it!!! after one of the best episodes ever david chase i new you would let us down get our hopes up the fade to black.

Suzie Sun, Jun 10, 2007 at 09:47 PM EST

Are we "supposed" to believe that the guy at the counter blew them all away when Meadow finally got to the table?? Or are they supposed to live as one big happy family?? And what was with all the attention on the cat?? I so don't get any of it!!

ari Sun, Jun 10, 2007 at 09:46 PM EST

psuedo-intellectual snobbery bullsh*t. a total slap in the face to everyone who has followed this series from the beginning - and even to people who only watched tonights episode and had never seen it before

Anthony Andolini Sun, Jun 10, 2007 at 09:45 PM EST

This was worse than the "Seinfeld" series finale.

Suzie Sun, Jun 10, 2007 at 09:43 PM EST

WTF was that???! WORST ending ever! I heard that they filmed 4 endings and no one knew which one they were going with. That's the one they chose??!? No closure whatsoever! Oh, I'm so aggravated!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

zz Sun, Jun 10, 2007 at 09:41 PM EST

I should have guessed. Chase is always doing this. Over ¾ of his storylines go nowhere. The lamp from season 3 anyone? Note to self, write show with pointless subplots, convoluted dream sequences and end series with cut to black. Then reap the rewards and be regarded as a creative genius. Chase you’re a tool.

Marci Sun, Jun 10, 2007 at 09:35 PM EST

They're all dead.

Jay Sun, Jun 10, 2007 at 09:35 PM EST

WORST......ENDING......EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

jenjen Sun, Jun 10, 2007 at 09:28 PM EST

Patty, I smell a spin off, too...or a movie. The door was left wide open.

Sun, Jun 10, 2007 at 09:27 PM EST

there has to a movie in the works

Patty Sun, Jun 10, 2007 at 09:24 PM EST

Are they expecting to make another "Soprano's" series? Maybe a spin-off? What the #@&% was that?
That was the most ridiculous ending ever. We're boycotting any show David Chase ever makes again.

jenjen Sun, Jun 10, 2007 at 09:20 PM EST

Your kidding???

flyshow Sun, Jun 10, 2007 at 09:20 PM EST

what the hell was that???

hammylu Sun, Jun 10, 2007 at 09:19 PM EST

that's it - wtf?!!!!!

jenjen Sun, Jun 10, 2007 at 09:15 PM EST

What happened? I changed the channel for 3 seconds and it was over? Meadow finally got the car parked and the guy got up from the counter and then what???

Michael Sun, Jun 10, 2007 at 04:30 AM EST

I think they'll all eat dirt. T should have killed Paulie Walnuts while he had the chance, because tonight Paulie will deliver the coup-de-grace to Tony. He's been working both sides and will become the NJ stooge for the NY guys when T is dead.
