Everybody seems to come down on the last episode of this overall fantastic series. Personally I don't mind it! I mean does everything have to come to a cataclysmic end? Is the life of a NJ crime boss not exciting enough we need more from their lives. As the fantastic Journey song that ends this series says "It just goes on, and on, and on..." The question is do we need it to? I mean Season 6 Part I was a pathetic grasp at keeping the series going. Did we really need more of that? Season 6 Part II tried to build up to some cataclysmic ending that adorns so much of North American entertainment and leaves you with reality. The lives of these people go on. By this point you have seen it all and it is safe to assume it just keeps on going. For this reason I love this season of The Sopranos. Granted it's not as fantastic as the beginning of the series but it is necessary. I admire those involved for having the guts to take this approach. Definitely worth watching if you are a fan of the series...Read full review
I purchased 'The Sopranos Season 6, Part 2 DVD Box Set' partly to complete my collection of the entire series on DVD. I enjoyed the last season, which included the somewhat controvercial 'last episode'......many having a big problem with the way it ended. I thought initially that it was a bit poor, but, upon further consideration, it actually fit in well with the series. Lots of things were 'left hanging' along the way. I thought overall it was a good half-season and greatly enjoyed it. It can't measure up to the first 2-3 seasons, but what series has not experienced the same thing. If you loved the series, as I did, I would definitely recommend purchasing this DVD set.
I am a big Sopranos fan. My Sunday nights just haven't been the same since the Sopranos ended. I own all the other seasons sets and I felt compelled to complete the set even though I recorded all the episodes of the last season myself. I was really looking forward to the extras and the commentary from teh cast and particularly the writing staff. I just love when they give you the extra insight into the langauage, songs, bizarre references that I am not familiar with. It helps me to enjoy the brillance of the show that much more. This disk set only has commentary from only actors on the show. Robert Iler was particularly disappointing when he admits he doesn't really watch the show. (Then why comment?) He was not really "aware" of the plot lines that don't include him. He lends no insight, other than the "lincoln logs" his mother Carmela made him were really raw and disgusting and he was glad he didn't have to eat one on camera. There is minimal comment from him, alot of "dead air"...Waste of time and resources IMHO. The best 2 things about the DVD is David Chase being interviewed about the song choices for the show. I always thought the songs featured were great and appropriate. Little Stevie Van Zandt and another minor character do the job I expected on their "commentary" of the next to last episode. They point out things on the set and explain certain references and insights into the contemporary italian and mob culture. Lastly, there is an extra "Making of Clever", featuring Christopher and Little Carmine. It is OK, but not particularly intriguing. For a show that I would hold up and say was one of, if not the best show on television, this DVD did not do it justice. The writing, the casting, the acting on the show was all top notch. I never saw an episode that I didn't want to see over and over. I could do without this DVD set. HBO breaking up the final season into 2 box sets, just to milk the $$$ from the fans is irrating too.Read full review
Left a few things hanging in the air such as What happened to Paulie? Also, are we to assume the final ending of the series as they ate dinner in the restaurant? Do we just put our own ending on it and come up with a scenario that we think fits? I would feel better about the series if the writers had come up with their own ending. Still, I consider this the best Non-Western Series that TV has ever seen. Lonesome Dove is still the Western leader. The language could have been toned down, but for realism, I would assume Gangsters really talk that way. I spent several years in the Marine Corps and I never heard normal conversation laced with so many provocative words. It was somewhat disheartening to watch AJ grow from a small boy at the beginning into a replica of his Father with his language and morals, etc. Read full review

Well, for starters I am (or should I say WAS) a huge Sopranos fan...knew everything there was to know about the show, the characters, the relationships, the whole enchilada. But disapointment started setting in by the fifth season. The sixth season...blah. The first half was to me just plain stupid and the second half (the last nine episodes) answered no questions, finished no major stories and ended quite abruptly. Now I know, every one says "true Sopranos fans" should have understood the ending...don't get me wrong, I did. It left you hanging like most of the intertwined plots did throughout the whole series. But c'mon! All my years of devotion rewarded with that ending? All those unanswered questions? Tony NOT getting whacked? I had to buy this DVD set for my husband for Christmas to finish his collection. Imagine my thrill when I got it the day after Thanksgiving for $12.99! Because paying any more than that would have been a real crime.Read full review
