It included a celebratory moment for me as a FWW who is a longtime Sopranos Fan. Anybody else experience this?

It's been putting a smile on my face all day when I think about it.

My FWH..identified strongly with Tony in this episode..I looked over and he was teary...

I didn't go into details because I don't want to spoil it for those who might want to check this out...

Mimi, let's hope that Tony continues in this vein. (Odds are long on that one) As soon as she started unbottoning the shirt, I knew what would happen.

I know it won't last too long for Tony but it did feel good to see last night..great moment in Sopranos' history! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I saw it. Before the scene in almost OW's apartment when Carmella was bringing Tony's freshly ironed shirts in, I thought of all the things I have done for FWH over the years. I thought of how I have always been there for him, emotionally and financially. I remembered how the only thing OW ever gave him was SF and bullsh*t.

She crowed at him about how wonderful he was, how smart, what a stud.....and she demanded he do this, give her that, leave his wife....all for his own good.

I know that FWH saw the correlation, I don't think he even dared breath in the shirt unbuttoning scene. I know that he was thinking that if a serial cheating MF like Tony had the strength to finally do the right thing, he sure as h*ll should have taken the high road.

WHo

i didn't see it but it sounds as though Tony and Camilla have decided to reconcile and he's done with the skanky OW

if so,

i just hope my h sees it (it's his favorite show) and learns something

and i hope my H OW feels like the "[censored]" she is when she sees it!!

Tony and Carmella have reconciled and Tony is TRYING to change his ways..at least, from a marital perspective.

Yep, another fun part for me was how badly the OW was portrayed and treated. Don't mean to hurt anybody's feelings by saying this.

It was great TV for me!!!

But did you notice how he came in the house yelling and being completely unreasonable? My guess is this will be (in his mind) all Carmellas fault that he can't "experience all there is in this short life" He doesn't have enough emotional maturity to NOT blame someone else, to BE the man he sees himself as.

Yes Anne
What was that? I was VERY disturbed by this episode. Actually we were heading upsatirs for some SF after Sopranos but that was abruptly cancelled. Why did he go the apt. at all??? Why was he so mad at Carmella when all he has said recently is how great she is??? She stuck by him through all the bs and the first tingly feeling he gets down there he is off and running.

I used to like Tony a lot more before dday. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

We watched it, too. My H saw the end of the early viewing while I put the girls to bed, and then we both stayed up to watch the 10 pm re-air. We got to the part where the skanky OW was starting to breath heavy in Tony's ear while he signed the papers. "Don't worry, he doesn't do it," my H said. I was so relieved. But when they were jumping all over eachother, my H added "I don't see why she's doing this--she can't find him attractive."

As it that's the biggest head-scratcher. How about, "I can't believe she's doing this--he's married."
