While the rest of us were busy watching the conclusion to The Sopranos, Triumph The Comic Dog visited The Tony Awards ceremonies. At least somebody had fun on Sunday night.

I promised myself I wouldn't whine about The Sopranos ending, but as always I break my own rules, and arrive to the party pretty late. I've been hoping that as time passed, I'd be able to overcome my initial "WTF" reaction. Although I've softened my initial negative opinion a bit, I still found the emotionally manipulative, ambiguous ending less satisfying than I had hoped for. It seemed more of an effort to grab attention and get people talking, and on that level it was successful. I certainly wasn't one of those who expected a bloodbath, but I did expect a commitment to a storyline. You only need to take a look at other movies if they ended like The Sopranos to see what I'm talking about.
