Uh, I believe that's M. Emmet Walsh…who thankfully is not dead.

Treme is not The Wire, and people will not be catching up on it via Blu-Ray or Netflix.

Eh, he gives himself a monologue where he has no business having one.  If he'd just stuck closer to dialogue I think it would've been okay - he would've been weird and awkward, but like you said, that's part of what's called for by the role.

Just like Master of Sopranos was the only site to get it right!  Until… nope, Chase had never even heard of it.

lol, you guys are worse than astrologers or numerologists.  The key quote is 'There was something more important than whether Tony lived or died' - and I'd think in most shows, the life or death of the main character would be pretty darn important. Here, it's not. You've been focused on the wrong thing all along.

DontEatThat:  Duh, that was carefully orchestrated in The Godfather.  He was frisked twice, both by Captain McCluskey and Salazzo. He couldn't have a gun on him.  Going to the bathroom right away might arouse suspicion, so he had to wait for a good moment in the conversation to do so.

Paulie: Yeah, I felt that way [that nothing good would ever happen to me.]  And nothing ever did.  Let's go get our joints copped.'

Meh, Breaking Bad can end however it wants to.  It's a hell of a lot of fun to watch, but it's not in the class of this show at all.

HBO Signature has been rerunning the Sopranos from Season 1 every night at 8 EST.  On Monday I was treated to him telling Tony as Tony is alluding to his penchant for oral sex: 'Could you shut up?  You yap worse than six barbers!' - Junior is full of these hilarious old-person-isms, including his penchant for old man…

I don't know - while I agree with a lot of this, I'm convinced we're much more worried than Tony is.  Granted, Tony has to be worried, but he's lived like this for years.  That anxiety has to be dulled - certainly there, but dulled.  It's hard to imagine he could function otherwise.

You're emphasizing the wrong part of the quote.  The quote that matters is 'There was something else that was more important than whether Tony lives or dies'.  That's it.  Chase didn't have to say anything else.  Death is always around the corner from Tony Soprano - we get put in his head in those final shots (I think…
