Dang, sorry to hear that.
Now there will never be a chance to right the wrong. That being the lamest last episode ever of a otherwise awesome tv series.

What did he die of?. Article doesn't say. Did the mob take him out???

Never watched a single episode, did this chap have any other claim to fame?

So - I guess that was the final episode? Never saw it much...on too late

I thought it was brilliant. and brilliantly done. You get that he was whacked by the man in the "Members Only" jacket, right.

No that was a scene from True Romance, a great movie.

Did another couple of movies, like Get shorty and True romance, was a great actor.:yes:

I'll second that - I thought the ending was brilliantly ambiguous. Fill in yourself, personally I think he wasted the hitmen. Tony Soprano was a survivor above all else. The epsiode where he got shot up was awesome.

[mashman]

Never seen an episod of The Soprano's... but have seen him in a few things. Gay hitman in The Mexican, General in In The Loop and likely a few others. Shame he's gone as he was a good actor.

The mexican, thats the one I was trying to think of, he was brilliant in that.:2thumbsup

The epsiode where he got shot up was awesome.

Yeah I liked that one too. Lots of great episodes (I've been rewatching a few episodes lately) with some good acting - some of the arguments with Carmela where it was all emotion and looking like it was getting close to violence for example...

It still sucks that the series was axed.

Cheerio Tony...

[AllanB]

Man I thought he was a lot older than 51!

[idb]

Fugeddaboudit!

[scissorhands]

weird how he died in Italy, maybe the mob got pissed of with his representations
sort of like Bruce Lee or sumting

Fatal panic attack. Watched
Season 1 & 2 box set recently. Brilliant show. Uncle Pussy '' dont shoot me in the face----I want an open casket''

'' Did the mob take him out?'' The real Mobsters said
they would never dress as bad as these guys. Good show but

Was it axed? I thought they just ended on a high? Loved the episode with Puss got whacked, when Christopher got whacked I was shocked, and his girlfriend...
I watched the whole series in one go. Sometimes long intervals between interesting stuff, but it was always surprising...

"Long Term Parking" is my favourite episode of the whole 7 seasons. (Its the one where they kill Adriana and have to cover it up). According to stuff I read it ended how and when David Chase wanted it to end.

There's old men, and fat men. Very few old, fat men.

Cheerio Tony...

Was it axed or did it simply come to an end on its own?
