LOL, Joe, Tony isn't going anywhere! It was interesting to hear Tony say to AJ that you can only trust your family and he winds up accidentily shot by confused Junior
I've watched each episode religiously since season 1 and was front and center for the premier last night. It certainly didn't disapoint! Excellent opener. Its a great show - awesome acting, story lines and character development.
Since I'm from Jersey, its neat to see all the Jersey references. Whenever I drive home from NY City, I travel the same highways as Tony in the show opening. All I need is the cigar!
I've met James Gandolfini twice on the streets of NY near where I worked. The first time I said hello and told him I'm a big fan of his work. He gave me that evil Tony smile, cocked his head and said "Thank you, thank you very much."
The second time I met him, I stood on line in a deli with him waiting to pay for a sandwich. He was holding a Gatorade or Snapple. He had a burly beard, dressed a bit sloppy and looked totally hung over!
