My review of sopranos as a whole, what a show from start to finish even the “worser “seasons are still amazing. Each member of the sopranos crew you care for and want to see them win and when they don’t it’s hard to watch because of how well written the show is .the writhing is perfect it’s not flawless but it’s the best Ives seen, the dialogue is always meaningful and brings something to the table and adds to the over all impact. The way it’s shot as well is fantastic  especially the very few scenes with shakey cam that gives such a tense feeling with amazing cinematography and composition . The main characters mostly always wear outfits with colours that represent the complexed ray of emotions the characters feeling.  Some of the best uses of its is carmela and tony . Tony can where a brown or dark jacket with blue shirt underneath or other way around symbolising the ray of emotions and what’s eating him up more his depression or his cold killer persona portrayed by this brown jacket he wears which links to “ Garry copper “ wanting to be stoic and show he’s stoic when he’s not. My favourite example is the finale meeting between melfi and Tony , most if not every meeting Tony where’s a colours that represents his mood , and melfi where’s a colour of black and another representing her sympathy and understanding where as in there final scene everything is flipped she is angry and confronting Tony wearing darker then normal and Tony is wearing light clothing and not loosing his shit kinda showing maybe he’s changed a little disproving the study although also proving it .

Tony and Chrissy and 2 of my favourite characters out and are so well written it’s fuckin amazing there dynamic is perfect and full of symbolism and meanings . Tony looked up to Chris’s dad and looked out for him , although chris hit some lows Tony trusted him I feel they both did care for each other in there own way but Chris’s was marked in a way a bad omen when he was made by a black crow symbolising bad luck and tragedy . In the end Chris’s is killed for everything his friends and Tony’s family where killed for having none of , loyalty  Chris was too loyal and it costed him ade, his new family and his life. A very well written character I could yap about for ever.another character I like is aj, he’s everything his dad is just not the violence and that annoys Tony he’s a constant reminder of him self and seeing aj make the wrong moves as he did upsets him and being a shitty dad he doesn’t know how to deal with him.

The last season is perfect top 5 season ever it’s full of suspensions and perfect symbolism . It’s very tragic but very real. Every one Tony needs has been this season for the upcoming war has been killed mainly by Tony.  All the characters are written so well and Tony saving aj is such a great scene also Chrissy death is so hard to watch and tragic there’s so much good things this seasons it’s unfunny. 

My take on the finale is that firstly the cat we see represent Chris , we see Tony finds comfort in animals as they are innocent we also never see Tony do much to innocent people because e be nice after all the evil he’s done He’s not a complete monster. The cat being Chris’s or ade or even both in a weird way would make sense. Then show has hinted at a lot of super natural things and it’s obviously a massive part and underlying theme. The cat how ever represents imo the loss of Chris’s and ades innocents from Tony and staring at the picture is a permanent reminder to the cat and Tony what he’s done. The final scene how ever I still need to process we have seen that Tony’s daughter medow is a lucky charm and a good omen she keeps him safe in a weird way and grounded , her not being able to park and be late shows how maybe like everything her luck is running out for Tony as she’s moving away permanently soon and getting married, how ever I don’t think Tony died it’s hit very 50/50 I can see both arguments but the scene highlights Tony’s genuine Paranoia he’s won he gained everything and lost everything but he came out on top like always the scene just highlights that and with melfi gone him struggling to cope and contain all the emotions he’s feeling he’s lost most of his friends and family and his uncle who’s forgot him. I also feel if Tony was gonna get wacked it would of happened he would’ve have waited to go to the restroom or anything, however the bold cut it’s fantastic and left up to the audience to decide with what’s been told .  But I feel medow is his protection which is why they seem relived to look at each other , the final scene is him looking up at her after ignoring everything that’s making him paranoid like the black group that walk in and the multiple people sat around at the bar and sitting  down remembering all the times he’s heard or had people killed in the situation he’s in now out with his family but seeing medow grounds him. Plus like I said I don’t think he died as it would have happened instead of waiting for a bit and hanging around especially for Tony who’s known for surviving. 

The finale is a 9/10 I feel they could have done with one more episode to flesh out the war as I feel it was a little rushed and phill was killed kinda boringly but it was well written still tbh. But the ending and the conclusion of the family and dynamics where fuckin amazing and sent of perfectly just wished we saw more of Tony dealing with the death of his close friends and family.
