Thoughts About The Finale

A quote that has been mentioned in a number of blogs that refers to the "Soprano Home Movies" episode when Bobby remarks to Tony something to the effect, "You probably don't even hear it when it happens, everything just goes black", when talking about death. It was also shown in a flashback scene in the "The Blue Comet". Many people think that this means that Tony was killed in the finale since this is what happened in the episode.

But what about this possibility? Not that Chase really "whacked" the audience, but maybe he he knew the audience would be so into the episode waiting for something to happen that we weren't ready for when it was actually over, and we were out of the Soprano's lives forever. We didn't hear it when it happened, it went black and we thought the cable went out. Of course we may never know what he really intended if anything at all. I wouldn't listen to the HBO suits, only David Chase knows what was intended. Although, with all the evidence that was presented, it is hard to believe that Tony was killed. I would go into it, but it already has been talked about ad nauseam.

You would say that...did you even watch the finale, or was it past your bedtime?

Just kidding about that, but in reference to the link on the last post dated June 27th, the whole thing, instead of meaning Tony's death, could have meant the death of the show. I have become increasingly disappointed in the ending however.
