At some point these episodes will come out on DVD, and then I will take a few weeks and rewatch this show in order. And then I'll be sad there's no more to watch.

at least it will take 3days if you don't sleep, likely a month to get through it with sleep

I think they are spending way to much time with the AJ thing unless they are setting something up. But what I really thought was funny:

Dr Melfi: Maybe he knew the rope was too long and wouldn't pull him under.

Tony: Or he is an idiot. Historically that has always been the case.

Amazing episode. Just a powerful scene when Tony saves AJ and they take him to the hospital after that. The curbing scene was crazy too - Tony played the role of a crazy father losing it perfectly.

I also thought it was hilarious when Sil was reading "How to Clean Almost Anything". Definitely got a good laugh at that one.

best episode of the show to date, and i don't even think it's close

Great episode, but its nearly impossible to top Pine Barrens.

The Pine Barrens was a great bit of suspense - a terrific idea for a story and it worked very well. The entire episode was about that incident, IIRC. But it involved two lesser characters in the show.

There were so many phenomenal lines and camera shots.

Chris and Pauly are lesser characters of the show?

Paulie yes, Chris no. That episode went a long way to establishing both of them. Still, this season has reinforced that the show is about Tony.

The scene of Tony retaliating against Coco is absolute gold. That would have to go down as one of the all time great scenes of this entire show. Major adrenaline rush for the audience.

Whatever happened to Artie and Charmagne Bucco, and Vesuvio?

When did it become fashionable to write 5.20 instead of 5/20?

Err, I mean, another solid episode. I might be one of the only ones who likes the AJ stuff. For those who don't like it, keep in mind it is just another catalyst leading into the eventual war with NY. Tony wants to show his men that he isn't going to take the cowards way out like his son.

Great ep. The scene at the pool right after Tony rescues AJ was really intense. Iler is not a great actor but he did an awesome job in that scene.

Do people think Tony and AJ are really depressed, or are they just manipulative complainers who use depression as a crutch, like Carmela was implying?

Also found the scene with Melfi and her therapist interesting, as he was implying that Tony was just pulling a con job on Melfi in therapy.
