Episode 116 - The Dave Who Saw the Jon and Steves

This one definitely goes in my 'worst title ever' pile.

This episode was originally a 90 minute one that was cut down to an hour for syndication.   We will talk about the 90 minute version.  Hopefully we get through it in a reasonable amount of time. (I clearly write these things before we start).

David Chase did this one, and it seems that every episode he runs gets closer and closer to the Sopranos.  This one has George Loros returning as Anthony Boy, who we first met in the two parter 'To Serve and Protect'.

Oh hey and there's Joey Aresco from Black Sheep!

The B plot has Jim trying to get out from under an IRS audit. 

This plot is not as complicated as we've seen before, but it's made up for by how good the  episode was.

Apparently this is a 90 minute one because of torrential rains in California.  At least IMDB says that, but who knows when it comes to IMDB.

I keep saying this, but this really is a Proto Sopranos episode.
