Anyone watching this new season? I love it so far. I thought last nights was the weakest of the three, but still pretty great.

I love the Sopranos, and I enjoy the pace of this season so far. It's almost dream-like, or perhaps, impressionistic. I thought last night moved a bit too slowly. I'm usually okay with that style, but it really felt like last night's episode was 2 hours long. I must say though, the themes and questions on redemption, old age, choices, etc. that keep coming up are great.

Pewping in the shower is gross!
I'm intrigued by how it will all end, especially after this week.
3 options I see being possible:
1) Tony continues to spiral our of control, especially with the gambling... he's brought down by a bad streak which only goes to offset what a good streak the rest of his life has been.
2) He turns in those Arab guys who were buying guns from Chris last year and in exchange has all pending charges against him dropped, ends up being hailed as a hero.
3) Massive war against New York, only Paulie Walnut's hair survives.

I think Vito Jr. pewped in the shower so he'd be known as the "Crazy Kid Who Pewped In The Shower & Then Stepped On It" as opposed to being called the Bundle of Sticks word.
I think Tony will be killed. He's targeted just about everyone in the entire cast of characters these past few episodes and it's bound to repercussions (especially from those characters who knew they were in the crosshairs.) I think him turning rat on those "terrorists" and going into witness protection would be a sell-out. Yes, war with New York seems inevitable now, doesnt' it.

I am so disappointed in this season so far. God help me, but I'm bored with it already.

I can definitely see being a little bored with the season to this point, none of the individual episodes have really set my pants on fire... but the teasing of what's to come has me still very much intrigued.
If the payoff isn't good then I'm going to look back on this and not feel good about all the watching, but I have faith in this show to deliver the payoff.
Perhaps options 2 & 3 above happen? Tony turns in the Arabs... looks like he's actually turning the corner and maybe starting to clean up his act... and then gunned down in a New York war that he wasn't even trying to take part in. Shows how trapped Tony was in the end by the life he chose.
