The Sopranos Final Episode (Updated)
I thought the episode was brilliant.
We got to see Janice, Bobby, Sil, Uncle June, Phil, Paulie, etc. one more time. And while we didn't exactly get closure on any of them (after all closure is rare -- life goes on and on and on) it was touching.
Funniest moment for me: When Meadow says, "The state can crush the little guy," and Tony answers "New Jersey?"
And Sil's hair? Perfect -- even as he lies in a coma, on death's doorstep, his gorgeous pompadour is flawless. And that Mussolini-like smirk! He'll probably have that on his face, in his coffin, as they lower him into the grave.
Anyone notice that Junior didn't have his dentures in for that last meeting with Tony?
P.S. And, yes, I admit it -- I (like many others) was fooled by the jump-cut to black at the end, lunging for the TiVo remote to make sure it hadn't stopped recording early.
Great show. we'll miss it.
UPDATE: The other hilarious moment was when we realized Paulie's cellphone ringtone was Simon & Garfunkel's "Cecilia."
