My love affair with the Sopranos came to an abrupt end (Thanks Mr Chase) last weekend. The last season was everything I expected it to be: compelling, poignant and most of all it left me wanting more. Since watching the final sequence in the restaraunt, I have proceeded to watching rerun after rerun of the ending on youtube trying to decipher all of the symbolism and any clues that may lead to the fate of Tony Soprano and his family.
However when one show ends, another must begin. Now I start my search for the replacement to a series that I invested approximately 86 hours of my time to. I am currently re-watching Madmen with my girlfriend, were up to season 3, and up to season 6 of Curb Your Enthusiam. Both great shows in their own right however I find myself wanting more.
I started watching Boardwalk Empire when it first aired and for the most part enjoyed season 1.It didn't suck me in though. I have season 2 on planner but to be honest I don't see myself getting to the end of that series.
Alot of my course mates watch Breaking Bad and the Walking Dead, so perhaps I need to give them a chance. So which do I choose? A series about a man living out his final months with terminal cancer or a series focussed upon surviving the zombie apocalypse?
I may do a blog post upon the ending of Sopranos but it's been so heavily covered I don't think I'll add anything to the couldron that hasnt already been chucked in.
Onwards and upwards.
The search for the next series begins.....
...... I miss Tony and Christopher.
Cheers.
