I can't wait for the last season to arrive on TV. Btw, I guess one always feels robbed by the ending of a great show such as this one.

Yes, I felt robbed. 
Actually, I wasn't too thrilled with the season as a whole. I was hoping that Phil and Tony would go to the mattresses as soon as Phil took control of the Lupertazzi family. The whole ordeal with Tony's coma and Vito's little trip to the country both lasted way too long, IMO. I wanted a higher body count. I was also disappointed with the way Christopher was killed off. When he shot his former AA sponsor, I thought for sure he would get pinched by the FBI and then flip over on Tony, who would then of course have him whacked out for betraying him. Now that would have been interesting.
I don't think that the 6th season is worthy of the previous 5 seasons.
