(On the Sopranos ending...)
Oh, I'm sure there are those who will bemoan the lack of resolution to the story or that Chase has somehow "robbed the fans" but I'm a fan and I'm ecstatic. I'm glad he thumbed his nose at the tyranny of the narrative drive to bring things to a tidy conclusion so we can all clap and walk away without another thought about that mob family in Jersey, satisfied that all's well that ends well. Screw that. I don't want to see Tony's death, nor do I want to watch him drive off into witness protection, or sit down to some kind of illusory happiness in the bosom of his family. I simply want to pretend that his life continues, that he's still simultaneously worrying about onion rings and whether that guy is hiding a gun in the restroom.
It's poetic. It's exciting. It's perfect.
And most of all, I wish I'd thought of it first.

Tyranny of narrative drive?
That explains the wandering, meandering last 10 episodes, completely devoid of narrative drive.
I fear for Friday now.
