[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I thought it was brilliant. Interesting theory that the son & wife died, never thought about that! But I think it was limited to Tony.[/quote]

It wouldn’t have been wife and kids.  Code wouldn’t let someone kill them, just Tony.[/quote]

Agree. Have you *ever* heard of a mob wife being killed along with the husband? It's not how it happens. They do have their "code" because it's what separates them from your regular drug gang, for whatever it's worth. Carmela and AJ are innocents and not involved in the mob activity. They were not killed. It's not some drug lord film where everyone is brutally killed.

Here's a wife that was killed and it was acknowledged that there is no longer a code: https://www.cbc.ca/amp/1.6845655[/quote]

Wives rarely targeted in Mafia attacks, says policing expert. That's from the link you posted, which admitted it's highly unusual. It also happened in 2023 and the Sopranos ended in 2007. Very confident the show's writers had absolutely no concept of having Carmela and AJ gunned down. You've been watching too many movies about drug lords.

Where does this confidence come from?  Are you David Chase?[/quote]

Why would David Chase, a stickler for accuracy re the mafia culture, do something so drastic and out of the blue as to kill off Carmela and AJ while sparing Meadow? There is no logic to it. Ask yourself that question. I wouldn't be surprised if you're the poster who wrote that long blog theory.

Killing off Carmela and AJ would be someone turning up at Downton Abbey and killing the family. It defies plausibility and turns the Soprano from an intelligent program to cheap soap opera of the worst kind. We can safely rule this out.

I think David Chase was pissed off by all the fans gleefully looking forward to Tony's death that he tricked everyone, including the suspense shots that he knew would have people endlessly agonizing over them for clues, when the actual death was just very mundane. Heart attack or brain aneurysm. [/quote]
