The Sopranos, Season 6, Part 1 is the most contentious release yet in the acclaimed series' history. While many fans think it jumped the shark at the exact moment Vito said "I love you, Johnny Cakes" , this season also contains some of the series finest moments and plumbs new depths of character, while continuing to add to the body count. Things get started with a bang, literally, that unexpectedly sends Tony (James Gandolfini) to the hospital and into a coma where he experiences an alternate reality while in limbo. At one point he awakes and asks "Who am I? Where am I going?" encapsulating this season's central theme in a moment of desperation wrapped in a fever dream. But it's not all existentialism. With Tony and Uncle Junior both of the picture, the capos in the Soprano crew try to take advantage of the situation and begin jockeying for position while a reluctant Silvio (Steve Van Zandt), acting in Tony’s place, struggles to keep everyone in check. Things aren’t going much better for Tony’s family, as A.J. (Robert Iler) confesses to Carmela (Edie Falco) that he flunked out of school, and while at Tony’s bedside, swears revenge for his injury. The stress of the situation finally gets to Carmela, who takes up Dr. Melfi’s (Lorraine Bracco) offer to help and finds herself in the strange position of confiding in her husband’s therapist, revealing for once that she feels some guilt over making the kids complicit in how Tony makes his living—plus there’s the issue of whether she really loves him. Christopher (Michael Imperioli) continues to provide much of the comic relief for the series, culminating in one of this season’s best episodes when he flies out to L.A. in a bumbling attempt to get Ben Kingsley to sign on for his fledgling movie (Saw meets The Godfather), and ends up mugging Lauren Bacall for her goodie basket at an awards ceremony. Sowing further discord in the ranks, Vito (Joseph Gannoscoli) finally gets outed as homosexual, and is forced to flee for his life up to New Hampshire where he meets "Johnny Cakes." Finally, even with New York boss Johnny "Sack" Sacramoni (Vince Curatola) in prison, Phil Leotardo (Frank Vincent) makes plays against Tony and eventually sets in motion a hit against someone on Tony’s crew, and now a larger war with Johnny Sack's crew seems to be looming.
Series creator David Chase seems to be saying with this season that character is destiny. If so, then Season Six, Part 1 is taking the necessary time to flesh out who these people really are, and is leaving the destiny part up for Part 2. The fact that the series’ writers have been able to maintain such a strong show with so many interweaving storylines for so long is a feat not to be taken lightly. That said, this season of The Sopranos does deserve some of the criticism it's received: the Vito storyline would have been better served by resolving it in fewer episodes, and the season ending is the most unsatisfying one yet, leaving many fans wanting more. But the bottom line is that this season deserves more praise than criticism, proving that even at its weakest, The Sopranos is still the strongest show on TV.--Daniel Vancini

The Sopranos series was great, except for this one! Did not like the ending. Maybe another 'tv movie' should be made with the characters getting what they deserve.

There is far too much absurd and poor "reality television" on these days so whenever I have a chance to pop in a Soprano's DVD, I do. It is not just entertainment, it is contemporary Shakespeare. It has it all

I was very pleased with how fast the video came. I tried to order the same product from another distributor, and instead of admitting they did not have the product, they returned my money with a note saying the address was not found. I would like to thank this seller for sending what I paid for, and I would recommend them to everyone. You guys wouldn't happen to have part 2 of part 6 would you? :)

This series is a fictional study of the personal, family and social stresses within organized crime. The true nature of dad's work is perceived at different depths by family, friends and neighbors ("Do you think a garbage man lives in a house like this"). The mobster's denial of his own life creates stresses leading to somatic manifestations, bringing him to a psychiatrist, providing the viewer with a perspective of the complex and unreal relationships between masculinity, loyalty, religion and a ...

Season 6 Part One of the Sopranos begins to set the scene for the series finale. At least that's how I viewed it. We got to see some older storylines that hadn't been brought up in years (Christopher's quest to make a screen play) come out of the shadows. We also begin to see characters growing up and changing due to recent events, like AJ handeling his fathers coma. We see the tensions with NY start coming to a head, a showdown, which is where it's been headed all along.
