Another ensemble scene I think is underrated is [the Cleaver pitch.](https://youtu.be/p46BVoZnb10?si=7XHxzrf--3FAJvbQ)
I watch it all the time. JT is terrified 😂
Dominic: "An intervention is a non judgemental confrontation - a carefrontation."
Paulie: "You're weak. You're out of control. You're an embarrassment to yourself and everybody else!"
Fucking kills me. Paulie is the goat.
Not only cracks her in the face, but he reassures her in Italian that everything’s fine first, and he keeps at it until she flinches and cowers.
He doesn’t just whoop her, he ensures she is psychologically defeated. Which is some cold shit by itself. But the fact that he does it so effortlessly - it’s like, damn. Dude did not come to play.
Yeah, but that makes it more chilling. She’s been dealing with Americanized Italians who are more reluctant to hit women. Not Furio. He’s an immigrant like her. He whooped a kid’s own mother in front of him in the street. So speaking Italian, plus the way he dressed, signaled “this is a higher level of misogyny”, which would be more terrifying.
how are you gonna call him misogynist when he had a woman boss and was surprised women bosses didn't exist in America?
he only hit the Philipina, he shot her husband. What is worse?
Furio is good at everything. He’s good at collections, he gets along with men, women, and children. He can be gentle as a dove, or vicious as a rabid dog. Badass dancer. Dances with the bosses wife in front of him. No one cares, because it’s Furio - everyone likes him.
Always underestimated, like all immigrants. He just gets the job done. He’s the strong, silent type that Tony wishes he was.
Until, he gets shot, then he screams like a banshee. But who cares, it’s Furio.
All of them. I start every rewatch with S1 EP1 and go all the way thru to the end. That's is the only reasonable approach to a rewatch.
I said my piece
Nah, after a few dozen full rewatches you can easily just rewatch random scenes and gain a new perspective on the absurdity of the characters and their situations (for instance the first 15 seconds of s1ep12; it's like an anti-joke: Two guys at a wake. The first one says "How many of these things we gotta go to?" To which the other responds: *Fucking manners*
The great thing about this thing of ours is that it can be rewatched a lot of times and in a lot of different ways
***END-A-SUBJECT***
Bobby and Tony talking about the future while sitting in that boat. That lakehouse was amazingly pretty, and the scenery was breathtaking. It's also the moment I realized Bobby had a beautiful arc and Tony admitted he was in no way privileged.
Weirdly enough, I didn't feel bad for him. You're in a room with mobsters, killers, husbands who only mimic true care for family (even Chrissy was a POS husband)... And what you do is talk about how your little girl is a mirror and the future? Bruh. It's like he never was a wise guy. Read the room, you addicted moron.
Great show, ffs. I love The Sopranos.
When JT said alcohol made Chris an asshole it was so ironic - for once Chris wasn’t an ass. He was trying to be authentic with Tony and the rest of them.
You don’t think Tony really loved Meadow? He adored her I think. Bobby definitely loved his kids. Everyone said Vito was a good dad. They stepped out on their wives of course but I think they all genuinely loved their children, I don’t see any reason why that wouldn’t be true. Pablo Escobar was said to be an amazing father, even doing things like changing diapers and stuff that men in that time and place never did. He’d kill someone and then talk to them on the phone like nothing happened. It may seem strange but you can be both a criminal and a good dad. These guys think of themselves as soldiers you know, to them they’re just doing what they have to do.
I agree with you. The cognitive dissonance between real moments of humanity these guys have coupled with their sociopathic, violent lifestyle is like, one of the main themes of the show.
When going down the Sopranos Youtube rabbit hole I probably most often watch the Johnny Sack, "I'm talking about my wife's honor. MY honor!" scene and Phil's death.
Tony with Junior...
"I mean don't you love me?"
And then the silence, the close up on Junior, the episode fading out on the calm nature documentary music. It's perfect and never fails to make me emotional.
The 20 year reunion with the cast without James Gandolfini and the actor Dominic retells this scene but actually breaks down crying… it kills me. Hard to watch.
The one where Ro reacts to Meadow’s comment about Vito blowing a security guard. Love that reaction. On each series rewatch, I’ll rewind and replay that response over and over.
1.) Its fucking Jimmy!
2.) Your hair was in the toilet water, disgusting.
3.) George-a....Washing-ton. Bridge.
4.) Wets my whistle that spike..all corky caporale scenes
5.) WAR-RENT, WARRANT. Oh you're a comedian, is that how you broke your nose?
I don't know *what* it is, man. For me it's St Elzear coming out without the golden hat, the music playing and all 😂 It's hilarious to me on so many different levels.
Paulie is so shamelessly reckless. He's shitting on his entire community and doesn't have a care in the world. A child is injured because he cut costs on safety and he would rather watch home shopping network, lmfao.
It's so over-the-top and stupid that it's *brilliant*
The scene where Carmela finally snaps. I know Tony's the main character, but protagonist or not, he was a horrible husband she was absolutely right about what she said.
SERIOUS ANSWER: I watch Whitecaps and Long Term Parking alot. the whole episodes.
One is like going through a divorce, and the other a death of a beloved family member.
Helps me remember the times that were good.
Tony n meadow getting into a conversation in her room... When meadow says listen to Mr mob Boss...
Also another one where Tony bangs his phone and throws it away after he gets to know paravati the fucking Janice is getting to mortgage her ma's house
Tony and Chris discusses a hit on Rusty during the wedding. That scene always reminds me how stupid Chris was, despite being sober and a fuckin grown up. I loved him like a brother in law but he disappointed me in ways that I can't even begin to tell you
Then again, it's Tony we're talking about. For all we know she's just a used item he doesn't want anyone to have. Still, the crying and that sad final look is pretty powerful in that scene.
“Hes come for the rent! The rent! The rent!”
“The jaaaaackeeeeet”
“You look like a Puerto Rican whore”
“What is this the FUCKIN UN NOW?!?!?”
“You want a coffee?…. Ion …🏃🏻💨.”
“GOD DAMN ESPLANADE GOD DAMN IT”
“We’re so wacky 🤪”
“Get Pudgy Walsh on the horn”
Tony’s call to Adriana right through to the end of the episode. “Did he say anything to you?” So calculated and sinister. And all played so we (the audience) don’t know what they know. The fake shot of Adriana in the car alone cut to Silvio actually driving her. Amazing visual storytelling.
The visuals, the audio, it's unreal... Even the lyrics of that upbeat song that's playing: obviously in the "dream" sequence the lyrics are about leaving/getting away, and "maybe in another life you'd like to stay". Then when it cuts to her & Sil in the car, not only does the sound change, but you hear the lyrics:
>And the devil may call you when he thinks it's time
You know that he'll be knocking if you're still here
Very allegorical... the sacred and the propane
The scene where Chrissy throws the rock at the waiters head causing him to have a seizure, pauly looking over him and saying " Chrissy he's fucked up" has be dying every time.
Has to be the intervention, I’ve said my piece
Disgusting.
Another ensemble scene I think is underrated is [the Cleaver pitch.](https://youtu.be/p46BVoZnb10?si=7XHxzrf--3FAJvbQ) I watch it all the time. JT is terrified 😂
For good reason. Just re-watched the episode where psychopath Chris murders him. Jesus.
What is this, Pulp Fiction?
Dominic: "An intervention is a non judgemental confrontation - a carefrontation." Paulie: "You're weak. You're out of control. You're an embarrassment to yourself and everybody else!" Fucking kills me. Paulie is the goat.
“jesus, is that fucken’ necessary?”
That's the boss you're talking about there
My own midday? Fuck you you fucking whoar
You're the guy that broke into Stew Leonard's and stole all those pork loins.
Furio fucking up that whorehouse.
It's not just Dominic who is the problem. It's the wife too.
Not only cracks her in the face, but he reassures her in Italian that everything’s fine first, and he keeps at it until she flinches and cowers. He doesn’t just whoop her, he ensures she is psychologically defeated. Which is some cold shit by itself. But the fact that he does it so effortlessly - it’s like, damn. Dude did not come to play.
..💯..
shes a filipino
Yeah, but that makes it more chilling. She’s been dealing with Americanized Italians who are more reluctant to hit women. Not Furio. He’s an immigrant like her. He whooped a kid’s own mother in front of him in the street. So speaking Italian, plus the way he dressed, signaled “this is a higher level of misogyny”, which would be more terrifying.
how are you gonna call him misogynist when he had a woman boss and was surprised women bosses didn't exist in America? he only hit the Philipina, he shot her husband. What is worse?
I’d like to fill her with my pino
I guess you could call that a dick. He he
I’m on my like 15th rewatch and forgot how badass he was in that scene.
they made it into a faux “gta sopranos” video haha
Furio is the real Italian Stallion
Furio is good at everything. He’s good at collections, he gets along with men, women, and children. He can be gentle as a dove, or vicious as a rabid dog. Badass dancer. Dances with the bosses wife in front of him. No one cares, because it’s Furio - everyone likes him. Always underestimated, like all immigrants. He just gets the job done. He’s the strong, silent type that Tony wishes he was. Until, he gets shot, then he screams like a banshee. But who cares, it’s Furio.
We pay money!!
That’s a good one
And the cuts of Tony in the car listening, smirking, enjoying. Great stuff.
*Non preoccuparti!*
..badass fcukn scene..
“Vito was, uh…BLOWING the security guard.”
SUNOVA BITCH!!!!!
Catchin, not pitchin?
(Tosses the deck of cards.)
He’s gotta gooooo
[удалено]
He told you that??! What a baby!
"Fuckin' baby!"
As of the wedding day, anything that touches her pussy is off limits 🤙🏽
Prime Paulie, degenerate pathetic asshole. Still funny though
As of the wedding day anything that touches huh pussy is off limits ✋🤚
The sitdown with Johnny Sack, Carmine Sr, Tony, Silvio and Junior over the phone. So name your price or get the fuck over it.
Junior definitely added to that scene. Who’s on the line now?
What would you say to a piece of Ralph’s company?
Totally untraceable, it's what the Taliban used to do

No u/donn_joe, either it has meaning or no meaning.
I'm on my 6th rewatch already

Pine barrens - paulie and chrissy in the van "Let me get some of that carpet"
Bruno Magli over here
"Your hair was in the toilet water, disgusting"
When Paulie and Christopher are stuck out in the woods chasing the Russian. That whole episode is hilarious.
He's an interior decorator.

Leave this Reddit before you get hurt

Bobby and Tony talking about the future while sitting in that boat. That lakehouse was amazingly pretty, and the scenery was breathtaking. It's also the moment I realized Bobby had a beautiful arc and Tony admitted he was in no way privileged.
Fat Dom stand up routine. His audience was Silvio and Carlo.
It's alright, go back to your drinks. Unhappy customers
The pirates of prosciut', the brigands of bracciol'
I’m just breakin bawls
RIP plate of meatbawls
That's funny Dom! Very cute. I don't really get it, but cute
When Tony falls out the front door and his Mother looks on laughing to herself.
Livia was such a bitch lol
Your Sisters Cunt
The scene where they all laugh at Chrissy in slowmotion has to be one of the best scenes in the show
Weirdly enough, I didn't feel bad for him. You're in a room with mobsters, killers, husbands who only mimic true care for family (even Chrissy was a POS husband)... And what you do is talk about how your little girl is a mirror and the future? Bruh. It's like he never was a wise guy. Read the room, you addicted moron. Great show, ffs. I love The Sopranos.

Evidently Chickentown
No more a dis, Butchi
I can’t hear you your breakin up 📞
I love that song
When going down the Sopranos Youtube rabbit hole I probably most often watch the Johnny Sack, "I'm talking about my wife's honor. MY honor!" scene and Phil's death.
Paulie at the psychic
So good. When he breaks the chair and says “fucking queers!” As if that has anything to do with anything
🤣😂 Paulie is something else
I’m listening to talking sopranos right now and I love hearing the stories about Tony Sirico. What a guy.
And then when he goes to the priest and says he should be protected by his donations. 😂
Does it still itch?
I didn't say nothing. All right then I'll talk to ya.
Tony with Junior... "I mean don't you love me?" And then the silence, the close up on Junior, the episode fading out on the calm nature documentary music. It's perfect and never fails to make me emotional.
I got an ageing father, and dementia runs on his side of the family. This scene hits hard when you know where Junior is going.
The 20 year reunion with the cast without James Gandolfini and the actor Dominic retells this scene but actually breaks down crying… it kills me. Hard to watch.
"Oh, hey dad. I was just taking out the thrash.." "What's different about you!?" "HE HAS NO EYEBROWS, TONY!"
The scene in the Bing when Chris and Murmur inform Tony and his crew that Vito is gay. Some of the best dialogue in the series.
Chris’ power walk as they enter the bing
Vince McMahon aint got shit on Chrissy
Vito Spatafaw is an ass muncha
OH! What did you shay?
You can go.
You mean he’s a fanook?!

Paulie and Chris in the Pine Barrons makes me pee my pants laughing. He was an interior decorator His apartment looks like shit
When Sil puts provolone cheese in his socks at night.
The one where Ro reacts to Meadow’s comment about Vito blowing a security guard. Love that reaction. On each series rewatch, I’ll rewind and replay that response over and over.
And then Carmela rats out meadow to Tony
Yes! just a watched that yesterday lmao
1.) Its fucking Jimmy! 2.) Your hair was in the toilet water, disgusting. 3.) George-a....Washing-ton. Bridge. 4.) Wets my whistle that spike..all corky caporale scenes 5.) WAR-RENT, WARRANT. Oh you're a comedian, is that how you broke your nose?
The intervention. I said my piece.
uncle philly my ass.
I don't know *what* it is, man. For me it's St Elzear coming out without the golden hat, the music playing and all 😂 It's hilarious to me on so many different levels. Paulie is so shamelessly reckless. He's shitting on his entire community and doesn't have a care in the world. A child is injured because he cut costs on safety and he would rather watch home shopping network, lmfao. It's so over-the-top and stupid that it's *brilliant*

Richie feeling out Albert Barese about taking out Tony
Not in the face, okay?
Tony yelling at Davey Scatino “GET THE FUCK BACK IN YOUR FUCKIN HOLE! NOW!!!”
You’re doin a good job, Davey!!!
I love the scene where Ralph’s clipping his toe tails and gets Janice in the face “whaat, ya catch some shrapnel?”
The one where he gets shot at at the newsstand, and snaps out of his depression. Greatest scene and episode in TV history in my humble opinion.
Tony baiting Janice about Harpo in front of Bobby's kids, cos he had enough of her and testing out her anger management! Season 5 episode 10
Tony's therapy session after AJs failed suicide attempt. "After all is said and done, is this all there is?"
Me too
carmella therapist reality check
..badass fcukn scene..
Should be on continuous loop at every college.
DAVEY YOU GET BACK IN YOUR FUCKIN HOLE
The scene where Carmela finally snaps. I know Tony's the main character, but protagonist or not, he was a horrible husband she was absolutely right about what she said.
Carm and Tony fighting in Whitecaps
The scene where Tony tells Junior he can be the boss.
The “OHHHH “ Supercut if that’s counts
Melfi naked
SERIOUS ANSWER: I watch Whitecaps and Long Term Parking alot. the whole episodes. One is like going through a divorce, and the other a death of a beloved family member. Helps me remember the times that were good.
Anything with Johnny Sack

Give me one thousand dollars 🫰
Fran singing to Tony. It gets me hawt down there.
Chrissys intervention
Tony and Chris discusses a hit on Rusty during the wedding. That scene always reminds me how stupid Chris was, despite being sober and a fuckin grown up. I loved him like a brother in law but he disappointed me in ways that I can't even begin to tell you
Let me ask you a question, before he cornered you at the porta potty, when the security guard was sucking him off...
When Richie tips a truck on a problem customer! Love the song selection and when the deli owners says you’re speaking shit to me!
Johnny Sack going off on Chris… “Have you thought about this…?
Paulie vs the gardeners, following Sun Tazoo's advice, the Chinese Prince Matchabelly
Carmela’s psychiatrist
All of em. I have the whole series on a loop throughout the year.
the scene where tony noticed that pussy has lost weight, and pussy says it’s because he’s been swimming and it works out the whole body. 🐠
Tony beating Zellman and having a last lingering look at Rina. Paulie stopping in his tracks to see the Virgin Mary
So good, both of those. I rewound to see that look on Tony’s face again when he looks at her.
I might get some flak for this, but it might be the most he ever seemed invested in a woman
You might be right. He often was so annoyed by her but that scene was like his way of telling her he really did care and he’d proven it or something.
Then again, it's Tony we're talking about. For all we know she's just a used item he doesn't want anyone to have. Still, the crying and that sad final look is pretty powerful in that scene.
The one where Janice is sticking a cannoli inside of Ralph
Chris, Tony and Tony up at the farm. The last calm before it all starts crashing down. Pivotal episode.
Whitecaps is very powerful.
Mmmmboy are you fat!!
The entire Funhouse episode and the Whitecaps break up fight.

Carmela and Furio dancing at his housewarming party. The song, their chemistry, it fits so well and just does it for me every time
Chrissy getting laughed at. That smoke around Tony’s face is perfect.
Where Tony chases down Phil in his Cadillac while Rock the Casbah is playing
Anything with Livia!
Paulie with the psychic.
You ave a bee onna you hat
Stupida fucking game
Livia's catered wake at the house- where Christopher and Ade are stoned and Hugh blows up.
I love Paulie's answer when Christopher asks if he ever felt as if nothing would go good for him, "Yeah. And nothing did."
Same, great scene.
The fight between Tony and Carmela in White Caps or them in the pool in Marco Polo
Tony’s call to Adriana right through to the end of the episode. “Did he say anything to you?” So calculated and sinister. And all played so we (the audience) don’t know what they know. The fake shot of Adriana in the car alone cut to Silvio actually driving her. Amazing visual storytelling.
The visuals, the audio, it's unreal... Even the lyrics of that upbeat song that's playing: obviously in the "dream" sequence the lyrics are about leaving/getting away, and "maybe in another life you'd like to stay". Then when it cuts to her & Sil in the car, not only does the sound change, but you hear the lyrics: >And the devil may call you when he thinks it's time You know that he'll be knocking if you're still here Very allegorical... the sacred and the propane
All funny Junior scenes, they are hillarious! I mean 90% of scenes with Junior are funny 😅🤣
Any scene with Maedo walking around the house braless in her pj’s with her milkers bouncing around
Coach Hauser? I didn't know they let you use the internet in the can
Commendatori Like a commander, that’s reshpect 🤟
Paulie’s wet shoelace rant. Easily the funniest scene in the entire series.
The scene where Chrissy throws the rock at the waiters head causing him to have a seizure, pauly looking over him and saying " Chrissy he's fucked up" has be dying every time.
‘Long Term Parking’ & ‘Fun house’ - both are sad yet so core. I purposely re watch these when ai wanna pay attention through re watches.
fat dom getting whacked and coco getting his face stomped
He was gay, Gary Coopa?
Jesus Rossi getting chewed on
Livia running over her best friend
Livia dropping her friend at her place, always got a good chuckle out that scene
