Watched it all again recently. It never disappoints. There are too many excellent scenes to mention. Tony S was a pure Monster

There's a scene when they're eating Sunday dinner Janice made, Tony was seperated at this point and Junior well into his illness. Junior said the varsity athlete thing. It was brilliant, and apparently important, because after Junior said it the first time and Tony got annoyed, no one ever spoke back to Tony like that.

But Junior brazenly said it again, and bearing in mind, Tony didn't realise it was his condition. It was symbolic of the old school hierarchy still had importance, there was nothing Tony could do.

And of course, still the greatest scene, Meadow in that blue and white dress when they're opening presents. Fcuk me, she looked out of this world

This is brilliant, loving Christopher's gentle kick to the body so he can sit down at the table.

And of course, the wig.

I don't actually know, but if you google Meadow Soprano Blue Dress I think it does come up.

Most of the best scenes are with Junior imo. What makes him often funny, is that when you think most of them concern themselves about the "business", he's often more concerned and irritated about trivialities around him.

Another few funny scenes were with Tony taking out stuff on the guy who worked at the BadaBing.

Something I never really understood is when people bang on about Gloria Trillos beauty. She is beautiful, but Valentina was better imo

I don't understand you banging on about meadow

Each to his own as Richie would say

The Golden Miller

I never really understood, so if Tony was killed in the final season by New York, would they have subsumed the New Jersey Mafia, or what would happen in that scenario? If he was killed that is?

Also, at the end of the story, were New Jersey fighting just one of the "five families", or are the "five families" one entity for all intents and purposes? If not, were New Jersey at the point, if it got too out of have, would the other 4 families have weighed in?

Because Tony never seemed too worried about that prospect. In season 6 it never really came across New York were that much more powerful, even though we're supposed to believe they were. Never understood in season 6, why New York didn't just wipe them all out in one swoop, they knew who they were and where they lived and all that in Jersey.

And if what we seen was the 5 families as one struggling with the New Jersey Mafia, it doesn't say much for them tbh!

The Golden Miller

She's good looking, just there was a scene where she was in a blue dress opening presents, and you double took. Looked more amazing than she normally did

In real life the NJ mob don’t get a seat on the commission, one of the New York 5 families represent them. I think Columbo, but not sure.

There are 5 New York families, the Chicago Outfit, Philly and Kansas city as the main power brokers.

In the show the Lupertazzi family is one of the 5 families. It’s them v the Soprano family. The other 4 don’t play a role at all. I assume the Lupertazzi family represent the Sopranos on the commission. The other 4 families probably viewed it as an internal squabble.

So if it got out of hand, the other 4 could of squashed it? With Tony hoping they'd understand it was an internal squabble, and mediate it rather than putting them down?

And were that one family, "holding back" on New Jersey in the case? Season 6 seemed to suggest they were struggling, but I get the impression despite it all, they were showing restraint on Tony's crew

I’d say the other families were staying out because it wasn’t costing them any money and they didn’t really care.

In one episode Tony says the Lupertazzis have 200 soldiers in their family. That’s made men, never mind associates. The Soprano family had about 40 as far as I could figure. The whole Soprano family was on the lamb, while Butchy was freely walking around Little Italy.

Jersey are a glorified crew!

NY was always perceived as more powerful than NJ crew. That was my understanding from the show anyway. From what I remember, by the end, NJ was more or less wiped out. Who was left? Paulie and Patsy? Two old timers. Paulie would def move to NJ crew

2 for me:

It's a **** nickname, just perfect comedy

and also the scene where Coco gets his comeuppance, such brilliant acting by Gandolfini, when you can see his mood change as he hears what happened and is processing how he's going to take care of it (in a James Gandolfini way not a Julie Andrews way).
