The Sopranos? Am I late to this party...

Ok rag on me all you want, but I just now got around to watching this show. I'm a millennial OK! I had a 'bedtime' when the pilot aired.

Wow. This show is INCREDIBLE. It seriously makes me want to move to Jersey and eat gabagool at the bing. Ok, maybe that's going too far. But still...

Favorite character? Absolutely Tony's Mom. A close second is Junior. They are both so hate-able and yet real. Junior's complete ineptitude is hysterical. Junior's sarcasm is what I live for.

I'm up to season 3 right now, but at the rate I'm going... I'll be finished in a week or two.

Are any of you guys fans of the show? What are your favorite moments?

I'd say no spoilers, but to be fair, I'm like 100 years late to this party haha.

This was our Jam every Sunday night in high school and college just before Curb Your Enthusiasm or vice versa. I was devastated when the series ended. For some reason I have always loved mob movies.

Never watched it, but over the last year have watched a ton of documentaries on the mafia.

Love this interview with Michael Franzese

Where can you watch Soprano's? Is it only on HBO or something?

Add The Wire to your list.

I can't say too much of my opinion without maybe ruining it for some. Enjoyed the show for the most part and there's likely more reality in it than one might think possible.

In many regards I have shared sentiments in terms of how the story played out in both The Sopranos and Boardwalk Empire.

Amazing show for sure. I second @ckay mentioning The Wire because that is another awesome one. I started watching Snowfall during the shelter in place and for it being a "network" show....even though FX has always been more superior than the likes of NBC, ABC, etc. when it comes to grit....it's a great show that I highly recommend. John Singleton (millennials will likely have zero idea who that is haha) does a great job with it.

Moni_SLO yeah crazy John died last year. Had quite a career.

Great show. I didn't watch it when it aired, but On Demand when it became available.

I've had several people tell me I need to watch The Wire as well. But again, haven't gotten into it yet. Maybe that's the next binge?

John TnC Check out Boardwalk Empire. @Jaybananapantsarthur mentioned it earlier. Good series about the organized crime in AC in the 20s
