Apparently, judging by the replies posted here on the Tilted Forum as well as on other message boards and in any number of "instant reviews" in todays newspapers, the series finale either "was a major dissapointment," "sucked flaccid cock," sucked," "was utterly unrewarding," "was a complete and utter betrayal to the legion of loyal followers and watchers of the series," "cheated the fans," and of course, "wasn't what we, (the fans) wanted."
Now then, a couple of those comments can be seen as legitimate gripes if one is talking about the story or flow of the plot during the last episode.
But saying that it was a betrayal or that it cheated the fans and it wasn't what we wanted are moronic statements.
A gifted artist, as I believe David Chase to be, shouldn't give a fuck about whether or not he is being true to the fans or whether or not he is cheating them. The only thing he has to be true to is the story itself and the characters in the story.
Any and everything else can go fuck off.
As for it being the greatest dramatic series in tv history, not even close. it's not even the best dram on HBO. The best dramatic series on Tv history is The Wire.
