It was a great ending. My guess, before the penultimate show when she ‘fired’ him, was that the show would end with the beginning of a

It’s always good to find something to agree with you on, Carrol. It
was terrific. It seems inevitable now, but who could have imagined it
even two minutes from the end?
It’s odd to hear that I’m supposed to find the series an artistic
pipsqueak next to Berlin Alexanderplatz. I love Alexanderplatz; I’ve
seen it three or four times, and would happily see it three or four
more times. But I thought The Sopranos was the best thing I’ve ever
seen on TV. Maybe it’s because I’m part Italian and from Joisey.
