Summary: Birthday Present...Great Gift
Comment: My father was so excited to get this video for his birthday. My mother purchased the first five seasons but could not find season 6 for less than $85.00. I found it on Amazon much cheaper and it was brand new! The item shipped quickly and was received within days of my order. I have just ordered another item from Amazon and I will continue to use Amazon for Holiday and Birthday Purchases. So far I have always received top quality merchandise from Amazon.

Summary: Good Show, Lousy Packaging
Comment: 5-star show with 3-star packaging. Extras include "The Music of the Sopranos" and "Making of Cleaver"? Really. Gimme a freakin' break! That and putting two episodes on an entire DVD is, to paraphrase a poor song, "They Hardly Work for the Money".
Other than that, a good TV show. As PT Barnum said, "Always leave 'em wanting more!" And this show did just that. Way better than a lot of other excellent series have ended.

Summary: Great final season
Comment: I held off for a while on buying this season. The sticker price is a bit high considering its only 8 episodes. Every 2 episodes I had to get up and switch the DVD out. I got it used and still feel i over paid only considering how many episodes came in this *cough* season. Regardless it was a great season far better then 6 part 1. The ending was ruined for me because I never saw this on TV so being such a hit everyone talked about it. Even so I was still disappointed to see the series ended. As a fan its worth getting if you can justify the price.

Summary: A satisfying end to a fantastic series
Comment: The final season of The Sopranos is a satisfying end to a fantastic television series that has captured my interest for nearly a decade. This show was the reason I subscribed to HBO and Sunday nights at 9 pm were a sacred hour when this show was on. While I am well aware of the criticism that the series finale drew for its abrupt end; it certainly is not a bad episode and it is much better after a second viewing. The season as a whole contained many gripping story arcs and once again the writing is top notch. Over the years I have developed a liking towards many of the characters; therefore, it was sad for me to see this show conclude and see the demise of many characters I have grown to like. I equate the first half of the show as a farewell tour that sets up the plot for the riveting second half which crosses the Rubicon in terms of war between the two families. The last five episodes of this show are among the best in the series' history but the true gem of the bunch is the penultimate episode The Blue Comet. I equate that episode to DEFCOM 1 as an absolute state of emergency ensues for the Soprano crime family. I was on the edge of my seat during much of that episode due to the fact that I didn't know what would happen next. I recommend purchasing this series on DVD simply it has a lot of replay value. I have watched this show countless times in comparison to just about everything else in my DVD library. I have found that re-watching this season on DVD to be more enjoyable to watching it when it aired in the spring of 2007. This is due to the fact that I can pick up on elements that I overlooked the first time I watched it. All of this said, I probably don't even have to recommend purchasing this season because chances are if you are a true fan of the show you probably own the previous seasons of the show and will buy this one anyway. Owning this show on DVD is much better than watching the abridged edition which airs on A&E. Watching the syndicated version is about as satisfying as drinking a can of Natty Light with a fine meal. Without sounding like a hired gun for HBO the only other shows that can hold a candle to the great writing on this show are The Wire, Six Feet Under, and The Shield which is on FX. I also recommend those three shows but The Wire certainly can hold its own and even best the Sopranos in some ways. Even though I am a big fan of The Wire, I enjoy the character development of The Sopranos more so and it is essential to view this season to see how things end for Tony Soprano and other characters we have grown to either love or hate.
Season 6 Part 2 Grade: A - (92%)
DVD special features: B - (82%) Although the main menu has a slick interface.

Last year, Tony Soprano cheated death when he was shot by his now institutionalized Uncle Junior. While Tony continues to muse about his second chance at life, he faces a myriad of immediate, stress-inducing crises at home, at work and from the law. Tony's wife Carmela plans for a future she's not sure will arrive, and son AJ and daughter Meadow find that adulthood holds its own surprises. Meanwhile, at work, Tony comes to doubt the allegiances of many of those closest to him ¿ no one, not Paulie, Bobby, Silvio or even Christopher is above suspicion. The clock is ticking. Time is running out. But on who?
