Thanks. The Jersey Boys really do look small-time as NYC comes after them (only ONE NYC family yet). Jersey may strike some counterblows, but the structure is severely weakened already -- Chris and Bobby dead, Sil disabled or dead. There just wasn't much there to begin with.

And I agree about the future.

From this week, we can already start looking back at the whole course of the series and see the form of "what it all means" (which will take a lot more thinking and re-viewing of the whole series over time when it is over.)

And yet, we still require that one last puzzle piece to have the whole story.

It may not be all-inclusively comprehensive in its explanation, but it will very likely give us the final verdict on the families Soprano.
