Tony Soprano is Dead?

Have you heard about this theory? People are wondering if the fade to black was symbolic of Tony's death. There was a scene with his brother-in-law, Bobby, saying "At the end, you probably don't hear anything, everything just goes black". HBO spokesman, Quentin Schaffer, called that a "legitimate hint". But, he's being very vague, saying "While he (David Chase) won't say to me 100 percent what it all means, he says some people who've guessed have come closer than others".

I suppose that could be what they were going for, but to me it makes no sense because the story was never told from Tony's viewpoint. If that's really what was meant to happen, the whole episode should have been seen through Tony's eyes. Otherwise, how does it make sense for our view to end when his does? Maybe that's just the only thing they could come up with after receiving so much criticism?

The Sopranos Finale

Is it just me or was that the worst series finale ever? I was so tired tonight, dozing off, fighting to stay awake for all the excitement. (Normally, I would pay to be dozing off so early but, I didn't want to take a chance on hearing what happened before I saw it.) Then the whole episode seemed pretty slow, finally, we're near the end. I'm on the edge of my seat, trying to decide if Meadow will be capped or spared due to her lack of parking skills. I think everyone that comes through the door of the diner is going to take out the whole family, then nothing. NOTHING. I was so pissed. I thought for a minute that my DVR locked up at the most crucial point of the evening, then I see credits. CREDITS. Still not believing it, I rewind and watch again, I go on-line to find out what I missed and it's still NOTHING. I'm so disappointed. I can't believe I missed sleep for that.
