Thread: Lifers -- They Didn't Understand the Series???

Bubbles, The worst academic experience of my life was my freshman year at college when I took a course entitled 'The Gothic Novel'. So I know all about the works from the period- from Walpole's 'Castle of Otranto', Lewis' 'The Monk', to 'Jekyll & Hyde', and so on. The problem with you trying to relate this antiquated school of thought/literature is that it is predates the establishment...

Who did Tony hurt? And since when does anyone on this show actually get approval to kill someone? Every day is a gift...Does it have to be a pair of socks?

UPDATED Sun Apr 6 2008 15:47:39 "But David Chase said in an interview that, "Everybody thought Pussy disappearing was the cliffhanger. But it wasn't. It was just lazy storytelling." That's interesting. I never heard that. I always thought that the "Pussy missing" thing was setting up the Season 2 plot of Pussy as informant (of course at the point of filming that episode they never knew if...

Yes, the "Torciano scene" is the one with Sil and Gerry Torciano sitting with two women in a restaurant, which turns to slow-motion as blood sprays onto Sil. The "Baccala flashback" is when Tony remembers Bobby's infamous quote on the lake, triggered by holding the AR-10 rifle Bobby gave him for his birthday. As for eating an orange, Tony did so early in the final episode, and many feel this translates...

And just as a side note, I think both Tony dying and Tony living are conventional endings. That's why Chase thought the series couldn't end with either one. That's why the series didn't end with either one.

UPDATED Sun Apr 6 2008 16:25:26 John Hurt's character told Tony that Pussy was a rat. Are you suggesting that Pussy was never actually meant to be an informant until the early writing stages of Season 2? I've always thought this. There's nothing in season 1 that would indicate that Chase nor anyone else actually wanted Pussy to be the rat. Tony's revelation that "It's fuqqing Jimmy!" is too...
