D Angelo Barksdale Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 Finally got round to watching Many Saints last night. A bit meh. Perhaps would have been better as a fleshed out TV 3 or 4 parter. A half decent period piece rather than a decent prequel. Livia, Janice, Young Tony and Uncle Jun were all good. Dickie was unconvincing and Silvio was a pisstake, something you would expect in an actual parody of the show. 6/10 never lived up to the hype. A sequel to this might be better though, chuck in Jackie and Ritchie Aprile, Tony B and Ralph Ciffareto, Johnny Sac etc. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fratelli Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 (edited) Tony Sirico has sadly passed away at the age of 79. Paulie was one of the greatest characters in TV IMO. He had a very interesting, well publicised life before becoming an actor too which made his part in the Sopranos even more fascinating. A sad yin.

Was completely underwhelmed by it, and pretty disappointed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arab_joe Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 Following a positive COVID result yesterday morning, I am quarantining at home for the next 10 days (the UAE still has very strict rules) and thus starting back at the beginning of The Sopranos. Just watched the fifth episode of the first season - College. What an episode - I had completely forgotten just how good. The conversations between Tony and his daughter; the dynamic between Carmella and the priest; and even Christopher beginning to show a bit of maturity after four episodes of being a bit of a clown... Devastated to learn of the death of Tony Sirico. His portrayal of Paulie is almost perfect. Sadly, given the age of much of the cast when it was filmed and the amount of time that has passed since (incredibly, it is now almost 24 years since the pilot was originally aired) a load of cast members have passed on: Article listing all of the Sopranos stars that have died 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Connolly Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 Sky Atlantic showing two episodes a day at the moment, so I'm working my way through having not really properly watched it before. I'm coming to the end of S1, and I'm convinced Tony's mother is the most evil human being ever to exist 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Busta Nut Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 Just finished another run through of this. I'll never know what to make of the last scene or what to believe was supposed to have happened. What a fucking show. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I managed to re-watch all 86 episodes between 27 July and 18 August - it reaffirmed, in my eyes, that no show has come close to it since it last aired in 2007.
