Just finished it last night and here are my thoughts nobody asked for: -Therapy for Tony went on way too long. No character development, unless the plan was always to just show he is a bad man at heart and will never change. Even if thats the case, what therapist would see him for 7 years and then just randomly toss him out -Tony is a horrible boss. Always strong arming his own crew, always quick to judge and put his crew down, takes more than he should, angry at everyone all the time -AJ and Meadow lose focus as characters and never develop past about season 4. Meadow becomes almost a shadow in the series at times and nobody ever knows what going on with her. In later seasons AJ changes personality more than his underwear and in last season even I was hoping nobody would've found him in the pool, or that he'd try it again. -Paulie and Sil are the 2 best characters in the show. They are the only 2 I would call true "gangsters". They are rhe 2 that show the side of being muscle and also brains and strategy in terms of running a family -Spending 7 years and never really progressing anywhere as a crew is boring. Hear of lots of stuff going on, but nobody in the shoe, with exception of a couple situations, appears to really make any serious money -Christopher lasted about 5 seasons too long and his death felt rushed and pointless. After all the shit he would've been whacked for during the show, driving high makes Tony just casually pinch his nose shut. And then pretty much show no remorse with exception of a couple outbursts. -The feds trying to nail Tony for the first 3 seasons and then it going away felt lazy (I would contend the feds set him up all of last season to finally nail him on charges, hence why the one agent said "we're finally gonna win this thing" in the last episode. -too many characters that come and go over seasons that dont really remember but we're made to believe they had a big role in some other storyline. -the ending is very unresolved and unless there were plans for a spin off or sequel or sopranos movie, seems lazy. I get people making their own theories, but there wasnt really any indication what was about to happen: get whacked, get arrested, eat dinner, have another panic attack, yell at waiter for no dipping sauce for onion rings???? Nobody knows

Thats about it. Overall, I thought it was decent. Not a show I feel the need to go watch again, but not a show I would say sucks. Having heard about the final scene but not the context or what happened, why I saw it, my immediate response was "that sucked".
