Fuhgeddaboudit. The Sopranos is the best show on television. The cast, the writing, everything is top notch. It makes NYPD Blue look like a bad soap opera. The new season begins January 16 on HBO. Don’t miss it. Or else I’ll break your kneecaps.

I just want to see the Three Tenors make a guest appearance.

Oh, how I long for the Sopranos and Oz.

Our cable company switched all our channels around and now my illegal filters which allowed me to pirate the premium channels no longer works. Foiled again!

Yep. The Sopranos–the best show I’ve seen. Can’t wait until Tony, Carmella, Junior and the rest are back.

And what about Momma (Nancy Marchand)? Isn’t she the most sinister old bitch ever?

I don’t have HBO.

You’d think that, with all the hype surrounding that show, that I was doing without electricity or sliced bread by not watching it.
