Re: The Sopranos
I know what you're talking about, Sean. I think so much of The Sopranos (especially season 3 on) was about subverting expectations and playing with traditional storytelling structure though that this is really the only way they could've ended. I bet it was very very funny for David Chase on Sunday night when everyone simultaneously thought their cable had cut out or their Tivos messed up. The last scene was very indicative of most of the last 4 seasons (for me at least) where you're watching and waiting for something to happen and you're waiting and waiting and waiting for something to happen and when it ends you realize that it happened while you were waiting.
If the show had only gone 1 or 2 seasons, I would've been very pissed off at this ending, but considering what the show has become I think it's very fitting.
