For lack of another place to post to, let me say again here that The Sopranos is just amazing. Through 5 episodes, this season feels up to the level of quality I don't think the show has really had since Season 2 (although there were plenty of great episodes in Seasons 3 and 4). And the show is definitely getting darker; there are still the funny moments to lighten things up, but in context you're almost afraid to laugh because something horrible might be coming up. If only demand-driven pointer analysis fascinated me as much as this show...
