Guest Anglesault Report post Posted March 5, 2004 It has to be better than season 4. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Askewniverse Report post Posted March 5, 2004 Season 4 wasn't that bad. It may not have been as good as the first three seasons, but it was still a solid show. I'm looking forward to Steve Buscemi in Season Five. Any bets on who's going to be the first character to get whacked this season? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Anglesault Report post Posted March 5, 2004 (edited) Season 4 wasn't that bad. It may not have been as good as the first three seasons, but it was still a solid show. It was a snoozefest. Carmella and Furio SUCKED. I'm looking forward to Steve Buscemi in Season Five. Any bets on who's going to be the first character to get whacked this season? Dunno, but I think Adrianna goes last.

Guest Askewniverse Report post Posted March 5, 2004 It was a snoozefest. Carmella and Furio SUCKED. I agree that the Carmela-Furio storyline sucked. I can see how people thought Season Four was a snoozefest, but I thought "Whoever Did This" and "Whitecaps" were both good episodes. Christopher's intervention was pretty good as well.

BlackFlagg 0 Report post Posted March 5, 2004 I enjoyed season 4...it's at the bottom of the list compared to the pevious seasons but was still quite good. Now, who gets whacked first....no friggin clue, heh. By the end of the season I expect to see Adrianna get it. I could also see Paulie or Sil getting it.

Don't be shocked to see Adrianna get whacked on or near her's and Christopher's wedding. And they'll make a big deal of it, since she'd be the first major female to actually get whacked.

Guest Askewniverse Report post Posted March 6, 2004 I hope Silvio and Paulie don't get whacked, because I like them both. Adriana getting whacked is almost a given. I'd be surprised if she doesn't get killed. As for the first major character to get whacked this season, I'll take a shot in the dark and say Carmine.

SpikeFayeJettEdBebop 0 Report post Posted March 6, 2004 I dunno but either they were faking it, or Moltisanti may go this season. Only because I saw this hting on TV Guide with him and the guy said something about "You getting whacked" and Imperioli shook his head yes, started talking, then they both caught themselves(Imperioli actually catching himself, and the other guy being a stupid twat). So anyway, I say Moltisanti will go this season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nevermortal 0 Report post Posted March 7, 2004 They should put a hit on Adrianna and have Chris find out about it. Two of them skip town and the mob goes on a manhunt. I'm all about the manhunts. Also, Season 4 wasn't that bad. The show where Ralphie got whacked was some great TV. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Anglesault Report post Posted March 7, 2004 Remember how at the end of season three the feds sent out an agent to socialize with her? Well, in season four, they start to become close friends. She even brings her into Tony's house for some reason that I don't remember. Anyway, after some shenanigans with Chris, they have a falling out. At this point the FBI gives up the charade and drags Ade into their office and tell her that they have enough to send her away on heroine charges if she isn't willing to cooperate.

Youth N Asia 0 Report post Posted March 7, 2004 I love the idea of the Sopranos vs New York...could have been a great feud had they not ended it. But I can understand why they did. Furio is great, but that storyline did suck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Slayer 0 Report post Posted March 7, 2004 Since I never even payed too much attention to what happened in 4 after the first couple eps Did they close out the season with a big whacking like the previous 3? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Youth N Asia 0 Report post Posted March 7, 2004 *****SPOILERS***** Tony killed Ralphie personally. Him and Christopher chopped him up and buried the body. Carmine and Johnny 'Sack' Sacramoni each went to Tony to have the other killed. But that was resolved and didn't happen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Anglesault Report post Posted March 7, 2004 Since I never even payed too much attention to what happened in 4 after the first couple eps Did they close out the season with a big whacking like the previous 3? Nope, the biggest let down of the year of huge let downs. At that point, I was so annoyed with that season that I was only going to be satisfied with a big whacking. They didn't, and it ruined what was technically a very good episode for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
