    Man, is anyone else as nuts about this show as I am? I am practically obsessed and that is encroaching even on Basketball. The other night I was actually flipping between the Rockets' game and HBO to see portions of an episode I have already seen. I am changing my moniker to "Sopranos freak".

    This show alone makes it worth it to get HBO. It really is must-see tv.

    Shh. I haven't seen last night's episode yet. I made the supreme sacrifice to forgo taping the Sopranos to chat during the Rockets game.

    The Sorpranos is a really good show. Too bad me and my roomates don't get HBO in our apartment in Austin, otherwise I'd be watching it whenever it came on.

    The show is definitely awesome. I only started watching the show a few weeks ago, but I'm hooked.

    Before I ever saw an episode, I thought to myself while watching the previews "this looks dumb." But when I saw the season premiere, I was like "damn, this show kicks ass!" It's quality acting, quality writing, and avoids all the stupid crap that network tv shows have. The daughter is pretty hot too. That Laserv chick is a little too slutty.

    David Chase (the creator) has a 4 year contract with HBO that will expire after the 2002 season. I believe the stars may actually have longer contracts. Chase has not ruled out extending his contract and continuing the show.

    It was just in Yahoo news the other day that they are not planning on extending beyond the 4-year deal.

    Money talks. Merely an early negotiating ploy.

    I watched the first episode again today.

    Remember how Tony was fat? He doesn't seem fat anymore.

    I binged the series over about three weeks recently.

    I’ll be watching the new film tonight.

    I thought it was overrated, good but not great(maybe for the time) but I saw it way after the hype. Cringe might too harsh for only 11 mins of watching.
