The Sopranos/Big Love

Cina

Both on HBO last night, the Sopranos returned for season 6 and Big Love premiered (stars Bill Paxman)

Haven't watched either yet but the Sopranos has always been fantastic and Big Love looks very very promising (bar the name!)

Mr E

Sopranos was a shocker.
I'll say no more until people have seen it.

I've seen it, are you talking about the ending. That was pretty unexpected. There are quite a few changes around the place. Not actually a spoiler, but someone's bound to crib about it so:

I'm wondering if there's anyone not talking to the feds these days

Shocker good, or shocker bad?

Inconclusive shocker. Good cliffhanger.

Lump

Yes.

Since it's the start of the series.... he clearly lives, not excately a cliffhanger, shocking though, what's he gonna do to Uncle Jun

Well I guess Junior is off to the retirement village!

Lump

Or worse! Tony's been wanting to get rid of him for a while, don't think he'd e able to do it. Since Tony rang 911, maybe he'll just get arrested and start singing to the cops!

Junior is a cute auld whore, maybe he's trying to set up another get out of jail free card by claiming he's off his rocker. This would put a halt to his upcoming trial. Then again, maybe he is actually nuts this time. I'm sure Tony will survive anyway, a belly like that could take a fair few bullets before it'd stop him.

Perhaps Tony will claim that someone tried to break in an shot him in the process, that would get Junior off the hook. But if the cops search the house and find the gun then that wouldn't work. It certainly works well for the nut job defence though. He shoots his own nephew thinking he's a ghost come back to get him.

Doh, couldn't wait, had to read your spoilers!

Well fair play to you lads about putting up the spoilers but the BASTARD IRISH INDEPENDENT let a big secret out of the bag on its back page today. It said 'Look away now if you don't want to know' but then revealed something important in the next sentence. You couldn't avoid it.

I think we should send Furrio and Pauli around to see Big Tony and make him an offer he can't refuse.

Took me a while to get my memory back. Couldn't remember what happened last series. Good to have tony back though and i think this might be a good series.

Snickers Man, what did it say? Was it

Junior shooting Tony?

Like the stupid bloody Daily Mirror during the last season. They had a similar spoiler and warning about Tony S shooting Tony B, but the fecking gobshtes had a big picture of the scene right beside it :rolleyes: It was a good thing I was watching them from my cousin's recording as this was two weeks before RTE showed it.

It took me a few minutes to get into it too. That strange spoken word /song they played over the first few minutes kind of threw me off.

Anyway the good news is that it seems to be at the same exceptional standard as previous Sopranos.

My advice: if you haven't seen it yet make sure you avoid ALL the spoilers.

anyone actually know when it's on here?

Meadow's dance!
Shocking ending! Adriana turning up at the start was also a momentary shock! And what's with all the sushi?!

For those that don't want to know a spoiler for ep's 2-3 look away now

Tony will be in a coma for the next few eps. We will see some crazy dreams he's having - not too thrilled about this but who knows?

Apparently there will be 12 eps shown and the final 10 will be on in Jan 07.

Oh - and Big Love was pretty good as well, reckon I'll keep tuning in!
