Several of those are reaching, while others have nothing to do with death.  Unless you're just listing all the egg references.

For the longest time I envisioned that the boyfriend had tried to open the coconut by pistol whipping it and the gun went off.  For some reason, it never occurred to me that he just shot the damn thing.

I think Tony really only trusted Silvio by the end of the series.  Pussy had to be taken out, Paulie was stupid and insecure, Christopher was a drug addict, etc.  Aside from their problem in the beginning of season 4 when Silvio registered his disagreement with Tony's promotion of Chris over Patsy by disobeying his…

I never really had a problem telling the two of them apart, but apparently plenty of other people have.  But then again, my father tells me he can't watch 'The Departed' because "Leonardo DiCaprio and Matt Damon look exactly alike!" so take fom that what you will.

*SPOILERS*

It seems HBO has a stable of great directors that only do work for them and not much else except maybe A&E.  Alan Taylor has 'Oz', 'Sex & the City', 'Deadwood', 'Six Feet Under', 'Carnivale', 'Rome', 'Big Love', 'Boardwalk Empire' and 'Game of Thrones' all on his HBO resume in addition to 'The Sopranos'.

It was the "Test Dream" and then the coma dream that supposedly drove Robin Green and Mitchell Burgess from the show after having been with it from the beginning.  They apparently hated the increasing amount of dream sequences (and how they went from several minutes to entire episodes) and left towards the end of 6.1…

I really don't think this needs to be spoilered, but it's amusing that Tony S. and Christopher both make the same exact joke about a pet store being right next to a Korean-owned storefront.

And I had forgotten that Phil Leotardo's first physical appearance is telling a terrible joke about Jesus being crucified during Carmine Lupertazzi's funeral.  Man knows how to make an entrance.

Tony's speech for Tony B. at Vesuvio's is classic.

It took me forever to realizes she was the wife of Lance Guest in 'Jaws: The Revenge'.  At least she has something worthwhile on her resume now.

I knew I could count on DPA to catch that reference, but where the fuck have you been?!

Counterpoint - "Laserblast" 2 1/2 stars!

The following is something I posted in the "Whitecaps" comments regarding just how much Carmela knows.
 
"…but how fucking absurd is it that it's Tony fucking Svetlana and Irina talking to AJ that finally sends Carmela over the edge? She knows what he does for a living, she knows that Tony killed Matthew Bevilaqua (go…

James Gandolfini - Michael
Marcia Gay Harden - Veronica (his wife)
Jeff Daniels - Alan
Hope Davis - Annette (his wife)

I think that's why I included "I believe" in parentheses after "AR-33" because I don't know guns all that well.  I just knew the rifle in this episode isn't the same as the one in the last season.

"They attack during your period, too"

Toddster mentioned how giddy and "schoolboy-ish" Tony gets during his futile attempts to get Melfi to go out with him.  There's one particular line that Gandolfini delivers beautifully that shows just how much Tony is floundering, especially being that he's not accustomed to not getting his way or being rejected.
