Ron Moore - "The Sopranos Ends Perfectly"

Ron Moore, producer of Battlestar Galactica, posted up his opinion of the Sopranos series finale and had this to say about David Chase’s ending:

“Yep, that’s it. He really did it. The man has guts. No, that’s not enough. The man has balls the size of Volkswagens.”

Moore goes on to say:

“It’s poetic. It’s exciting. It’s perfect.

And most of all, I wish I’d thought of it first.”

AMEN to that. I know there are a lot of you out there who wished for a more conclusive ending to the Sopranos.. but:

1. You went through 6 seasons of the Sopranos. Did you really think he was going to do that?

2. Would any ending really give anyone satisfaction? Does a television series that tries to be as realistic as possible have to end on a resolution? Life goes on folks - or maybe it doesn’t.. who knows? But that’s how life is - you walk away from a person or a set of people and guess what - life goes on.

Truly a beautiful ending.
