In some strange way, I wish I had watched this show so I could take part in the universal discussion going on everywhere I look or read. I guess it's because the show aired on HBO that it never seemed like a big deal to me, since I wasn't constantly hit over the head with commercials for it, etc., but I had no idea this show was so big. I saw one episode years ago, out of boredom late one night - I think it was about Tony running into a snitch while up in the NE taking his daughter to scout out colleges - and it seemed like a decent show, but didn't really interest me. But I'm not a mob show/movie fan at all - never seen a Godfather movie, nor Goodfellas (other than a couple of clips), etc. Too bad this show wasn't about something that would have interested me.
As far as "life goes on" endings, I think you either love them or hate them. I didn't particularly care for the Seinfeld ending, and I absolutely hated Broadcast News because of a similar type of ending.
