We've been, after losing the thread last year. I dunno, I was finding 
things a little boring, the few times I caught it last year, but the one 
where Tony was in the hospital hooked me back in again. I haven't gotten 
the depressing vibe from it, maybe because I keep watching the plot line to 
figure out which one will spin off into a new series. :) (I don't read the 
gossip sheets so I don't know the lowdown on whether that's going to happen.)
