Sympathy for Ralphie is akin to sympathy for the Devil, as the many quotes from the song sprinkled in the dialogue of "Whoever Did This" not-so-subtly remind us.

Melfi's choice
My mom and my sister both held out hope as season dragged on into season that Melfi would tell Tony what happened to her—their visceral need for revenge was so great. I kept trying to tell the that, just like [sigh: SPOLER] the Russian, Jesus Rossi was a dead letter and we'd never see him again.
Carmela's Jealousy makes some sense
She really twigs when he says, "Aww, her knee? Hope she doesn't need stitches." Carmela knows her husband—his sorrow is as much (if not more) about a spoiled view as it is about genuine concern for Melfi's well-being. As such, it may be the funniest scene in the episode—darkly…
Claudia, I think Diarrhea Dump has a crush on you!
Binky, I can still remember laughing very hard at your post on AfterMASH, with Harry Morgan yelling "Socratic method!" I'm thankful for you and the many, many other posters who have made me laugh—the comments here can be funnier than the Onion.
No, it will work if Halle Berry plays her, he'll just have to beat the hearing out of her other ear when he's done.
Someone must have pointed this out but…
…it's SOONG, not SINGH.
I love the very subtle sub-text of Noah dropping Meadow: his father ordered him to it, just like his father took out a restraining order on Caitlin. It's never sted but it seemed clear to me and thus a bitter irony: Meadow could stand up to her mob father about him but he could not stand up to his showbiz lawyer…
What is the world coming to?
Bet Batman TAS moment: oh no they didn't dept.
Harley Quinn singing a torch song about being the victim of horrific domestic violence. "Life used to be so placid/ Won't you PLEASE put down that acid!"
That's how I see it.
Leonard Pierce? You send Leaonard Pierce?
No offence, Mr. Pierce, but you guys just wanted this show to fail. (And a C is a fail. Yeah, you know it is.)
You all do realize that the epilogue of the finale tells us that the Half-Cylon kid dies young and it's supposed to be part of the good news that she was mitochondrial Eve.
Never liked Midge
As a person, I mean—as a character, she was totally believable and the actress played her with just the right degree of smug self-satisfaction. I am pleased to say I rather enjoyed seeing where she ended up.
I love how Chris Noth cannot hide his contempt…
…for this shit.
I agree this show is lame
Save, of course, for Hugh Laurie—it's a lot like Dexter, in that regard. But diddn't tonight's episode seem to be going out of its way to establish that Sam is a far better match for House than Cuddy?
I, for one, rank Brother Mouzone as one of my favorite Wire chatacters.
Peggy's idea vs. Don's (Glo-Coat)
Locked in a closet is real confinement—that kid is trapped by a cruel and humorless mpther. The inerted chair prison is a symbolic—that kid is playing a game with a mother who is shrewd and sweet enough to play along with her son's cowboy fantasies.
The poster above made an argument that a sexually promiscuous born again Christian seemed unrealistic. I brought up the most famous real-world example suggesting that it is not. no need to become snarky. I thought you were a friend, you know, a rewal goodfella.
As a TOS "purist"…
…who sorta likes DS9 but little else under the Star Trek Brand,I list "The Defector"a s one of the very few TNG episodes worth re-watching. It's a good one.
