HBO wants to end it. They say they’re just not that into it anymore and they’re not returning our calls. We’re told there are five stages to grieving the loss of a relationship. Well, stage three is upon us. We understand that there are only two episodes left until our precious Sopranos are ripped from our loving arms and tossed out of our lives like dead remote control batteries. And now that we’ve worked through our denial and buried our anger, we have come to the realization that it doesn’t have to end. What if things were to change? We’re willing to compromise. For example, let’s take the characters out of the Sopranos and recast them into other successful shows? Can’t we please give it another shot? HBO, we need to talk.

The Sobrado Bunch -
Plaid is back and this family wears it well. Tony Sobrado splits his time running the local architects mob and coaching little league. Between bake sales and raising six little mobsters in training, Mamma Sobrado has her ands full. Plucky Lil’ Paulie Walnuts will tug at your heartstrings with his hilarious antics , you’ll want to come home to this fun filled family every night. Tuesdays at 8 this Fall.

Our View
You got opinions? Well Tony and the guys think you bettah fuggehtabout ‘em. Come on down to Bada Bing’s and drink your morning soy latte extra foam with America’s favorite mobsters! But be prepared to leave your opinions at the door or suffer the unfortunate consequences. Early morning split screen debates between Tony and Christopher will have you taking sides. Choose wisely. 9am Weekdays.

The Partranos- Tony Partrano takes the wheel driving this singing family of mobsters across the country as they con their way from county fair gigs to Summer music festivals. The will they/won’t they sexual tension between Mr. Paulie Kincaid and Mrs Partrano will keep you in stitches if the bullet wounds don’t get you first. Sundays at 9pm.

The “Office”-
Tony rules his office with an iron fist and a Brooks Brothers suit. He’s got quotas and sexy dance moves. You won’t know when to laugh or cry and neither does his family of aspiring mobsters running the “business” under the guise of a cubicle filled Silicon Valley start-up. Tony’s team is rounding up venture “funding” and lining up “mergers and acquisitions” every Thursday at 8 this Fall.

American “Made” Idol
You better be able to sing and not like a canary. Paulie Walnuts wields a sharp tongue and brutal aim with his 35mm. Don’t hit that note and you may be Tony’s or Paulie’s next “hit” because these judges rule the music industry with connections and contusions. Auditions to be held this Summer at Bada Bing’s.

Ha, I like The Office photo. I can’t wait for the show to come back this upcoming season. I’ve heard that they are coming out with 30 episodes, should be a good one.
