I thought that this week's episode of The Sopranos was the best episode in some time. I would never characterize the show as having ever been "fast-paced". I do think that this year the producers have turned the intensity up a bit from last season's (and I'll sort of agree with you here) not as intense (until the end) output.

dwill,My comment about Sopranos being slow may be colored by the 15 months I've been waiting for these new episodes.
It's obvious that creator David Chase is building here...Johnny Sack is my pick to get whacked out very soon, with the informing-to- the- feds Adrianna not far behind. The Robert Loggia/Feech character will cause much trouble for Tony...let the gang wars begin.
I thought the scene in the bar where Patti D'Arbanville's (sp?) character is "shot" thru the phone book was great and vintage Sopranos. However, waaaay to much time spent on the health-failing Junior Soprano.
Still the best show on television (imo).
Bada-Bing,
My pick for who gets "whacked" this season is Feech La Manna (Robert Loggia). And I predict that Tony Blundetto (Tony Sopranos' cousin) will do the "whacking". The money in picking up dirty laundry isn't as good as "whacking" money. Just a thought. I agree best show on TV.
You have a point...it's unlikely that Loggia (the actor) would stay with the show for the whole season. Ditto Tony B. (Steve Buschemi). I'm surprised the production can afford some of these character actors (this ain't commercial tv...I wonder how much the Sopranos increases HBO subscriptions).Still, keep your eye on Johnny Sack...I think he is due for the big sack, the dirt nap, the big sleep, very soon.
Regards,
