I should have done like David Brooks and waited 20 years after I saw the Republican Party go off the rails before writing about it. Then I could have kept my job and gotten a cover story in The Atlantic for my courage when I finally saw the obvious. theatlantic.com/magazine/archi…

Such a devastating moment. Dr. Melfi knows she's doing the right thing here, but she also knows that now she'll never get any justice for what was done to her. As great as Edie Falco was in S3, Lorraine Bracco should have won an Emmy for this episode.

On this day, 24 years ago, "Employee of The Month" one of the most important episodes of The Sopranos premiered.

How long before the likes of the Daily Fail and the Telegraph and Nigel Farage start talking about annexing the Irish Republic?
