And he's never been able to learn from mistakes, so he can't understand why his heart always breaks. So he insults Chrissy and Janice as well, and this whole damn ep was as boring as hell. And Tony'll go to the grave as an angry fat man. |

It's The End Of The Season As We Know It (And I Feel Fine) Whitecaps - That's great, it starts with a head case. Boats and hoors, the Jersey shore. Lawyer Bruce is not afraid. Eye of a hurricane, listen to Carmela churn. Tony serves his own needs, never mind the family's. Nine o'clock, TV hour, don't get caught by network power. Slash and burn, Chris returns, look at Johnny Sack churn. With a wire on the Curto and a crazed Vin Delpino, and a mob hit for hire at a combat site. Oh, left him in a hurry with the Russians screaming on the phone. Offer me alternatives, offer me Alias, but I decline. It's the end of the season as we know it, and I feel fine. |

Adriana finally convinces Christopher to marry her, only to discover that she's doing it for all the wrong reasons. And while Furio finally starts to dig himself out of danger, Cousin Brian finds himself drawn in even deeper. |

Stuck In The Middle Review Everybody Hurts - I don't know what to say here tonight. I got the feeling this ep just ain't right.

No One Is To Blame Christopher - You can block a parade, but you just can't retreat. You can watch Joey Pants take a vibrator in the seat. You can be an Indian chief, and not a serial killer again.

The Army Of One The Army Of One - In this season's Sopranos send-off, Jackie Jr. gets whacked when everyone says he won't, Paulie gets peeved when he's not paid off, and Johnny Sack sleazes and smokes through his non-sequitur of a scene. Back on the homefront, AJ faints dead away at the prospect of being sent away to military school, and Meadow gets sloppy drunk while mourning her hunk. But wait, there's more! Adriana's new friend is a Fed learning her Craft, the boys all get busted for betting, and a half-dozen other plotlines are left blowing in the wind. And then in the end, just like the song says, sad songs say so much. |

Amour Fou Amour Fou - With an increasingly insane Gloria interfering with his family life, Tony is forced to employ Patsy Parisi to help threaten to put the "whack" back into "whack-job." But even with all her wacky meat-winging ways, Gloria still isn't as bad as LLFP(TPA), who commits a multitude of sins, ranging from smoking spliffs and seeing sluts all the way up to shooting Sunshine. It all prompts Tony "Sun Tzu" Soprano to cleverly remind Joey just who wears the Pants in the Aprile family, thus delegating yet another distasteful task. Oh, and Carmela puts her faith back in The Lord (of the Rings), and at long last finds some inner peace. And also maybe a part-time job. |

Pine Barrens Pine Barrens - We've already seen the cold Christmas of '95, but this week we're apparently back in the heady Cold War days of 1985, what with Paulie "Ollie North" Walnuts and Christopher "Fawn Maul" Moltisanti stirring up diplomatic incidents, engaging in hand-to-hand combat with Russian commandos, and waging war against the evillest empire of all -- South Jersey. On other fronts, Meadow's foray into espionage proves Jackie's lack of intelligence, Tony confesses to Melfi about his cross-border incursion into one of her patients, and said patient Gloria starts showing signs of adding a bit of fatale to her long-since-demonstrated femme. |

Ho ho ho and a barrel of fun To Save Us All From Satan's Power - David Chase gives us all a great big present by trotting our favorite characters of Christmas past, present, and future.

There's not much plot between all the cameos, but Tony manages to get revenge on Janice's Russian, Jackie Jr. gets caught with his pants down (but not literally, so don't worry if you missed it), and Carmela has the right suspicions about the wrong girl. |

Girls, Interrupted University - It's ladies night on The Sopranos, but the specials are death, depression, and, well, dickheads. And that doesn't even count the cover charge for the VIP room. Tracee the Dancer, Caitlin the Roommate, and Meadow the Daughter all learn some very important life lessons that may or may not make things better for them. It's another brutally brilliant episode, complete with mystery, misogyny, and the missionary position. Don't miss it. |

The meaningless and all that's true Mr. Ruggerio's Neighborhood - With the Feds trying madly to bug the Soprano basement, we get a re-introduction to all the characters we've come to know and love. Pretty much everything the FBI hears is meaningless, while everything Paulie says about urine is absolutely true. The jury is still out on whether the new lamp will be meaningless or not. I'm betting "not." |
