A top 5 show for me.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't remember that..or Rome for that matter. Think both maybe still thought they would come back but just proved to damn expensive to make??? So maybe they were not real "series finales" BTW, watched the sopranos finale last night 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eball Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 The Seinfeld finale was fine -- it was a fun look back at lots of characters from over the years. Jerry couldn't win with that no matter what he did. It was corny but fun. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like it was on Saturdays in the evening on some UHF channel that we could only pick up once every three months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was interesting that the last dialogue segment was the same as the first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a two year series though, Rome is worth a binge. When you look at what the production costs of Game of Thrones must be, it is hard to figure that Rome and especially Deadwood would have been cancelled due to cost. I have to wonder how they determine what a series is worth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nextmanup Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 At the time, lots of folks were annoyed with the ending for LOST. Most didn't understand it or like it. Also "The Sopranos"....everyone hated the final episode, particularly the very ending to that episode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First 2 were amazing. The shows and plot threads did not have cohesion and weren't always resolved, and never really satisfactorily. More of "here is more from those Italian characters you know and love to imitate" Like AJ Soprano. Spend a lot of time with that character in development over the episodes.... why? what kind of arc was that? He was worthless and never went anywhere, like the show. The only reason I kept watching is: 1: to find out how everything would wind back together and see the show become great again (never happened) 2: see how it all ended with Tony in what would be an iconic finale would he get arrested by the Feds? Family member murders him? One of his crew murders him? Rival gang? "Happily ever after?) (never happened) Edited January 11, 2019 by May Day 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't a series that had story arcs to be resolved, or big character reveals to be settled. I always thought it was great. Sopranos was brilliant, it just took a little while to sink in. And clearly it didn't appeal to people who require visual evidence of everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for sharing that Newhart ending. I haven't watched it in ages. Everything about that scene is true "comedy gold", down to his final comment.
