My Reaction

First off i'd like to start by saying to the guy having a jibe at "we Americans" cause we want closure...the sopranos audience was not entirely made up of Americans.

I think we all would have liked some form of closure but at the end of the day it would be stupid to see some form of happy ending for a mob boss or even at that being shot at the last moment of the show...both i think would not to the show justice.

personally i thought it was a very good ending i was annoyed at first but i've made my peace with it, it was different yeah but that sudden stop allows us to come to various conclusions and keep the sopranos going on and on and on and on (i couldn't resist a journey reference) It is always odd though even still for a show than never had a dull moment...continued to shock audiences WORLDWIDE ended by shocking us in a different way (lets face it no-body could have seen that coming) thats all i've got to say p.s i miss bobby bacala and get well soon Silvio
