1. Which is the best season? I’m hooked after 1.
2. Why was there like a 3 year hiatus in 02 – 04?

I rank the seasons as follows:

3
2
1
5
4 and 6 part 1 are tied for worst.

I just caught up with the new episodes and I came in here expecting to have a good discussion, but the thread lies dormant.

I just watched the latest episode...it's hard to describe how I feel about what's going on.

You could kinda see it coming, what with the look Tony gave him during the BBQ, and how he grabbed his gun from his car when he thought he was coming up the driveway. I wonder if he's just in denial and will breakdown emotionally soon. Or maybe he was dead to him before it happened.

I hope they have another dream-heavy episode before its all over. Those are usually my favorite.

I didn't see it coming after their talk about the "big picture". In hindsight it made more sense, with Tony worried about him ratting and now clearly being back on drugs. I was bummed that his confession in therapy was a dream and not for real.

I read the recaps and I am still glad I canceled HBO.

Sopranos has largely sucked since season 4. You're really not missing anything.

Fuck both of you. Last week's episode was one of the best in the series to date.

Also, if you're a true fan of this series, I don't really understand the point of "rating" each individual season. It's about as meaningful as rating each individual chapter of Anna Karenina. The entire series is one continuous saga, meant to be watched and enjoyed as such.

I would no sooner tell someone interested in this show to watch "only season 3," or "just Pine Barrens," than I would tell them to read only the last chapter of Great Expectations. To me, my sublime enjoyment of this series comes from its extraordinarily rich characters and the choices they make.

Why do you think so? It was awesome for the first 6 minutes and then the rest was rambling and silly. The first 6 minutes made it by default the best episode in years, but that's not saying much.
