Calling all Sopranos fans! - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

**margo** · 03-08-2006, 06:08 PM

I've been waiting (impatiently) for the start of Season 6 - it's been a long wait. I have all seasons on tape and have been catching up from the beginning over the past couple of months. I've got the recliner and remote reserved and am so excited! So, who else is a die-hard Sopranos fan?

I never really got into that show, Margo. Sorry. I'm sure there must be a couple other fans amongst all the members here.

I used to be, Margo. I loved that show. When we moved from Toronto to where I am now, it only showed shows from a couple of seasons back and not the new ones. So, I lost track and haven't followed it, but every once in a while if I am visiting someone in a town where it's still current, I love to catch an episode.

I'm chuckling to myself thinking of my favourite episode, when Tony's nephew had a near-death experience and didn't see the "white light" and was convinced that when he dies he's going to hell. Gee, maybe the life he leads shoulda been his first hint

Hugs,

Oh boy...I missed this...I have been waiting for what seems like years!
Wait...it has been years!
I'm always first thing Monday morning with a guy at work trying to predict where the next episode is going.
First they took Sex/City, then Six Feet Under.
Finally...I have Sunday night back

We've had to wait 21 months for this! I heard a review of the first three episodes this morning and it sounds like this season is going to be the best ever. No secrets were told, but apparently something major happens about 3 minutes from the end of the first episode.

Ann, now that you're a lady of leisure you can rent the DVDs or tapes, or probably get them from the library, and catch up on all you've missed!

Milla - there's supposed to be more episodes airing in 2007.

Cece, I loved Six Feet Under and saw the first season, but my ex didn't like it and always hogged the remote control when we were watching TV - it's all mine now, though.

**cece1960** · 03-10-2006, 05:26 PM

Margo,
Six Feet Under is worth the second look once you get used to their dark humor.
It can be pretty graphic, but it just puts it right out there. Just as soon as you think they're dwelling on one thing a little too much they would leave it behind and pick up with something else.
I can't wait for the Sopranos!!!!!!!!!!!!

**margo** · 03-10-2006, 05:45 PM

I love the dark humour in Six Feet Under - I think that's what made it so good. I'm going to check out the new series Big Love that's on after the Sopranos too. I'm also a Huff fan - there's a new series starting in April.

Hey Margo--I wouldn't necessarily call myself a "die-hard" fan, but I do really like the show. I watched it pretty religiously the first couple of seasons, but then I got confused about when new episodes would be on, got lost and couldn't figure out what was happening. I am defintely looking forward to the new season, though! One of the HBO's seems to be doing some sort of marathon so maybe I will get caught up!
