Finished it yesterday and it didn't fully live up to its potential. The main problem is that I think TV is the worst timesink (not that I necessarily think I'm right) and my impression of the show was that there'd be worth in it with a story that has an overarching plot but plot threads are resolved in an episode or three and the therapy sessions don't thread Tony's mental state and slow descent into a pig which leads to the second point: the irony and symbolism was too subtle for how plain the cinematography was so a lot of the humor and subtext goes over your head unless you're analyzing the entire episode and remembering remarks or previous symbolism from what could be seasons ago. It's refreshing it doesn't hold your hand but it's to where you're filling in the gaps of a story that isn't fully telling itself. The dream sequences were the best part of the show for their idiosyncrasy and the finale, which Chase directed, naturally understood and framed what the show was and how it was supposed to look especially the final two scenes in my opinion.
With those two the point of the show, a bad person's sliver of redemption being discarded by himself and what a failure he is in comparison to previous generations and balancing with what a terrible person he is with being someone trying to be a good family guy, leaves me disappointed since all I was really left with was being expected to enjoy actors act and have my morals invoked.
Addendums I have are how separate the mafi
