THE END?

The Sopranos ended it's 10-year run on HBO last night.

As terror and impending doom paced the final moments, the screen suddenly faded to black.

What? My cable went out?

Then the credits started to roll.

At first, I was disappointed, but on second thought....what a brilliant ending. Like life itself, you never know what's around the corner.

I don't think Tony and his family met a "Bonnie and Clyde" style ending. No, I think the Soprano's sat in their booth eating onion rings and listening to Journey.

Someone agrees with me! I think it was also brilliant.

People need shit to be so fucking obvious and over the top. Let's hear it for subtlety and grace.

It was odd, I have discovered "Alias", never saw it before, and now am buying season after season! I have a feeling you love your Sydney Bristow. MM

TV whore that I am, I've never watched "Alias" - but I should give it a try.

MM what's your take on Isaiah Washington getting fired from Grey's Anatomy?

THE ORAL REPORTER said...

Well, from what I hear from my friends in La La land, he is a big jerk. I could care less that he called his fellow actor a faggot - people say bad shit all the time. But friends in La La land tell me he was a big pain in the ass on the set - big ego and hard to work with. Also, Elizabitch from The View said an interesting thing yesterday...She said she no longer could watch the show the same way knowing that Isaiah had called Knight a faggot. Well, I'm sure the ABC suits with dollars in their eyes are thinking the same thing, so better to slice off some rotten meat than lose the whole cow.

I think if the tables were turned and TR called him a nigger there would have been more outrage in La La Land then there was for Washington calling him a fag.And I also think he dug his own grave by bringing it up again at the award show.He should have kept his mouth shut.I think Al Sharpton should have got involved with the matter of the faggot comment.But noooo he's to involved with what Paris Hilton does.He needs to pick his platforms better.But then again it wasen't a racial comment so he doesn't care I guess.

I will have to give "Alias" a chance, darling. Lately, I've been watching the first season of "Maude" on DVD.
