If it's great I'm sure we'll hear about it, but The Soporanos covered as much as I really felt was needed. Shows like The Soporanos, Breaking Bad, or Mad Men explore the main characters so thoroughly and effectively that direct prequel or sequel content seems superfluous. A better idea would be a spin-off like Better Call Saul was for Breaking Bad or Frasier for Cheers.
I'm going to speculate that the financial performance and audience reception will cause them to second guess this, if nothing else. Now that I've written it in digital stone I'll be proven wrong.
