It's like a documentary about a culture or species that is about to go extinct. Tony embodies a shift from the traditional Italian life-style to an American capitalist-liberal one: he always avoids fracases out of honor and focuses on the "cash-value" of issues. He even tolerates Vito's homosexuality cause he gains a lot. Tony goes through an existential journey as he grapples with the "new" world where there is no place for "old" values. It's like reading a dense 19th c. realist novel. Awesome.

Not only the greatest show of all time, but the two halves of Season 6 is up there for greatest achievements in narrative storytelling of any form, period. Performances, visuals, tone. The image of Paulie tanning with the cat haunting him nearby will profoundly affect me forever. And dat end scene.

A bit of a tough one to rate. On the one hand, it has an incredibly deep bench of strong, well-acted characters. It finds truth in the sociological drivers of organized crime--emphasizing the mundane over the glorified. And it's undoubtedly the founding father of TV's Golden Age. But it also really struggles in its attempts to be philosophically deep, which are frequent. A show I'll always appreciate, but I'm not convinced it belongs on TV's Rushmore.

Still the greatest TV show of all time. Even the women are well written which is usually not the case in these type of shows. So many classic scenes, James Gandolfini is perfect as Tony, so many great characters, so many hilarious scenes. Paulie still remains one of my all time favorite characters. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WZ8Ts1s4pUI

Is it just me, or is the so-called Golden Age of Television not all it's cracked up to be? This is the epitome of that fawning respectability which is characteristic of modern acclaimed US prestige dramas, where The Police's "Every Breath You Take" is played alongside the police wiretapping gangsters and where the meaning of surreal dream sequences is outright explained by the characters. If this is the best that the US has to offer, then I'll gladly go back to watching trashy anime.

The Godfather of high quality U.S. programming, it set the pace for every Breaking Bad and Mad Men that followed it. The role Gandolfini was born for, it has a wonderful supporting cast and manages to make you want to like these monsters. That ending though...

The best TV drama I ever saw. Mostly brilliant writing & a very rewarding slow burning pace. Even the weaker plotlines are carried by the absolutely fabulous cast & wonderfully classy direction. Really manages to find its own thing and stick to it despite its flaws. Some bits are maybe too slow or less interesting than others but as a whole it's almost perfectly structured for the small screen. The ending really feels like a proper conclusion to a story in a way few TV shows can even aspire to.

What started out as a slightly satirical mobster dramedy in its first season, has by its sixth transformed into an introspective existential drama, a reminder of the viewer's own mortality and a call to action, a thorny morality tale, a thousand other things and on top of that, still a really heartfelt family drama. A ridiculously multi-layered masterpiece of a show that has influenced nearly every other American drama series to follow, and been superseded by none.

(Completed) Is it just me, or does every HBO drama seem to constantly insinuate that shit is about to hit the fan, but really the boy doth cry wolf, and tedium is the name of the game? I am right. When something finally happens, I'm like, "huh? Oh, I don't care now. I'm reading the back of this DuckTales VHS" (Edie Falco and Michael Imperioli are so good it's banyaners) (I agree with IMDb. My favorite episode is 'Pine Barrens') (Every female extra plays a stripper!!)

Even though it's probably 20 hours (2 seasons) worth of episodes too long, at its best, there's nothing like it: a surprisingly organic mixture of domestic drama, crime saga, sitcom, and Lynchian, surrealist horror.

Having just seen this for the first time in 2023, I can confirm that it absolutely holds up. I avoided it the first time since I'm generally not a fan of mob movies since they tend to romanticize criminals w/ all this loyalty & honor BS. Little did I know this show is the opposite of that w/ the show constantly reminding us "No matter how entertaining they are, these people are scum." It also sometimes points out the problems w/ therapy & best of all, how family members can become hateable.

S6B > S5 > S4 > S1 > S2 > S3 > S6A. There's major clumsiness with the Vito storyline in the last season (S6A) and Buscemi felt like a "special guest appearance", otherwise it's perfect television. Gandolfini and Falco are both phenomenal (arguably the two single best performances in any medium), and the series is not only a masterclass in black comedy, an exploration of social & individual entropy, but also an exemplar of proper pronunciation: https://youtube.com/watch?v=_87pRe1MUwE

The Sopranos fluctuates in quality over the course of its run, but that's how TV works. Episode by episode, imperfections accumulate, but that only leads to an imperfect show if you accept that there's a ceiling of perfection in the first place. For every scene of Vito in a gay bar, there are two more that redefine TV forever; the entire finale may leave a bigger footprint on history than any movie that year, or decade, alone. I saw this for the first time two years ago. It will last forever.

Finally working my way through this. Season 1: tons of good stuff but I cannot stand about half the cast. I hate Tony's mother so much that when an episode opened at an old woman's funeral I cheered "Oh finally!" before realizing it wasn't her. The kids suck ass, and Uncle Junior is a good character but I don't like the performance. The writing is mostly strong except when the dialogue devolves characters reciting essays on Italian heritage to each other

Another historical staple in television history, The Sopranos is the father of the current small screen golden age. Gandolfini is perfectly cast as Tony Soprano, and the writing is both precise and profound. Perhaps a little self-indulgent at times, but as the first serious tv series of its kind, that is very well earned.

It's always great. There is a focus on the protagonist's family which can be annoying at times. But still, it's a magnificent journey. The characters have cult potential, and the little scenes "in between" make it all fit together.

All praise given to this show is deserved so anything I have to say will be redundant -- but I'll say it anyway. Absolutely everything (except cinematography) is exceptional, and even when the characters are frustrating me, it just makes them feel more real. No smugness present here like certain other copycat shows, this gets right into the nitty-gritty of mafia life and its psychological consequences (that never change).

After season one, they ran out of Scorsese ideas to steal and it turned into a bottom-tier soap opera. Except that the stories in soap operas actually go somewhere sometimes. This is my least favourite theme song. I like to try to image someone who would listen to this theme song just as music. Play it when friends come over and say, "That's my jam".

Truly one of the trailblazers for the new modern golden age of TV. While it shows it's age and suffers from the same thing as Seinfeld where it's successors improved upon the formula overall it has aged quite well. It does well on rewatches as you can catch onto many things you may have missed on the first watch through. It has some rough moments like the Vito plotline, the Ben Kingsley episode, repeat plotlines, & at times the pacing being rough. But overall it's one of the best shows ever.

While I acknowledge its influence, I find this overrated. I've never hated a character as much as AJ and Meadow is a close 2nd. Paulie almost makes up for them though. Best scene is S5 E7 ending with Tony smoking at the Bing while Linkin Park instrumental plays. I resent the post dream explanations, implying they can be dissected for concrete meaning and that psychiatrists are qualified to interpret them. Fuck the last scene of the finale from the bottom of my dick

Overall an amazing TV series. Gandolfini does one of the best roles I have EVER seen in film/television. Some amazing beautiful moments poppped up quietly every few episodes and made me grinning or loudly laughing. The only thing I despise though is Carmela. She must be the stupidest female character ever created. Her split up with Tony was very delayed and the get back together made no sense. And it all ends with the best death scene I have ever seen

I won’t argue with those who laud this as a crowning achievement for television—because it is one. It’s one of the progenitors to the golden era that ushered in untouchables like Breaking Bad. But the show can often be too unfocused for its own good. It’s not uncommon for plot threads to fizzle or resolve with little difference to the characters. And I’m just gonna say it: the ending does not work.

I remember liking the episodes I caught here and there when this first aired, but am only now watching all of it, from the beginning, for the first time, and... for my money, perhaps the greatest series of all time--certainly in the top 5. Spectacular writing, stunning cast, sure direction...it had everything. Even Nancy Marchand. It's not easy to upstage James Gandolfini, but she managed to do it practically every scene she was in. But, acting-wise, this is Gandolfini's tour-de-force. Superb.

i liked it more than i liked it lol. invented higher quality modern TV but didn't always stay at that level, overall that was an 80. -mostly from a lot of acting, side characters and their storylines (like christopher's band) which got worse in the last 2 seasons even though there were more good ones. the returning legends was kinda meh. paulie silly cadence etc. tony is more his mom, janice is more their dad. AJ is a sociopath+faker. Melfi shouldn't have ended it like that. Love the last moment

Impossible to list off all the moments of TV perfection contained within this show, but the acting and scripting was so perfect it transcended the medium. So many of the actors embodied these roles it's hard to believe you are watching acting. The storylines were intense, yet there were frequent moments of humour in every show. Not so much about mafia, as about the meaning of life, parenting, family, privilige, addiction, responsibililty, society, depression and ofc human callousness.
