I know, the fourth season wasn't all that, but I really thought the fifth season was pretty darn good. The last episode was awesome, and did a nice job of wrapping up a bunch of storylines while opening up a ton of new possibilities for the 6th season. I figure I'll start rewatching them at a pace of about two a week until the new season starts.

It comes out June 7th, in case you didn't know. :)

Excellent season, I really enjoyed it. Buscemi was a nice addition to the cast, too.

I'll probably be getting it for Christmas though...

I held out till Christmas for a lot of DVD's last year, but I'm going to jump on these one while it's on sale and stuff. $80 is too darn much, and that's what it will probably be if I wait.
 
A couple of standout episodes in this one:

(mild spoilers)
Two Tony's: The start to season 5 was great IMO; the bear was a great contrast to the ducks of season 1 and seeing AJ reduced from a angsty teenager to a kid crying "moooommmy" was great. The best part though was Paulie and Chris's friction. Reminded me of Pine Barrens.

Irregular around the Margins: The most tense episode of season 5. Absolutely terrific.

Unidentified Black Males: A couple of revelations in this one that were pretty OMGWTF. I also loved Tony's quote after he outpours in therapy he says
Tony: "you know, sometimes what happens in here is like taking a shit."
Melfi: "Okay, I like to think of it more like child birth."
Tony: "It's like taking a shit."

Long Term Parking: This was the one that made me go "oh, so THAT's what Season 4 was for!" :)

Season 5 has 3 AAA episodes. But everything else was veeeery dry and bland.

Better than season 4, for sure. But, still below the quality of 1-3. Hard to believe next season is still 9 months (or more) away.
