Me too. I didn't mean to say I don't like it. I'm liking it a lot. But there's definitely more nausea and less comic relief lately. I don't know about more philosophy though because there's always been a lot of that. Here's one of my favorite exchanges between Dr. Melfi and Tony:


>Melfi: Ok, lets stick to the subject.

>Tony: Which is what?
>
>Melfi: Your own intolerance for frustration
>
>Tony: 'Thank you for holding...Your call's important to us.' --- if
>it's so fucking important to you, answer the fuckin' phone!
>
>Melfi: Stay with that.
>
>Tony: It's just the level of Bullshit, Bullshit, Bullshit!
>Every fuckin' new idea they come up with ~ it's supposed to make
>things better....it makes things worse.
>
>Melfi: Ok, right. I agree. The center cannot hold. The falcon cannot
>hear the falconer.
>
>Tony: What the fuck are you talikng about?
