How so? Are you seriously asking that? And maybe it's you that doesn't know much about David Chase, or anyone else that likes money in the world. Seriously, I cannot believe you made that statement...it's just so beyond arrogant. Yea...and you're David Chase's best friend, right?! I guarantee Chase likes money...or he wouldn't have kept stretching the show as HBO request he do.
How so because Sopranos was meant to be 3 seasons, NOT 6. It was S T R E T C H E D! Why was it stretched? Money. Ratings.
Seriously, I know the episodes that CHASE wrote or co-worte have a LOT of good stuff in them, I'm not saying they don't...but don't for a second think it wasn't money driven.
Chase never wanted the show to go on this long, neither did a lot of the actors. But...money talks. And BS excuses walk.
Not friends with Chase, but I guess you are since you said it is all about money. You must have spoke to him. I'm going off episodes and Chase interviews.
I never heard that about it being just 3 seasons. Than call the Season 3 finale about money. This is the end. He was getting paid no matter what. He will get money because of the A&E replays. He is set.
