The older I get, the more I understand Carmela Soprano

[SillyMoose]

I may or may not be on the wine and watching my favourite comfort show for the 80th time.

I know Carmela is considered to be a nagging harridan type, but good lord I'm feeling her on this rewatch.

She really tried to do the right thing in many circumstances early on, before things started going to shit.

I see that now.

On that note, oh god, how long before I start sympathising with Livia 😂😭

The older I get the more I dislike Carmela. She knew full well what Tony was, but liked the money so turned a blind eye to it and went to mass.

It's a great serious though, is it streaming for free?

You're right really, I just don't think I'd be dealing with it all much better than her!

And I'm old enough to be watching it on an actual physical DVD that I'm inserting into a machine 😭 Maybe I should just neck the rest of my wine and go to bed.

She's a great character, but they all were. I would call it the best series of all time.

I was hoping I was becoming more of a Jennifer Coolidge/Tanya.

Apparently I'm becoming a Carmela/Livia.

🫠

It absolutely is isnt it. Best scripting of any show ever.

This is my sign to rewatch for the 874th time

My heart breaks for Adriana!

“The Russian with the one leg?”

Laig?

Agree. Plus worse, always trying to be high and mighty and thinking she was better - she was a gangsters wife(!)

I always like Rosalie, I wish she'd been in it more

It's truly the best show ever isn't it. It's my desert island.

Every time DH has a cold/flu/any type of man virus he likes to shout "I wish the Lord would take me now"

Love the Sopranos. Neck and neck with Mad Men for me.

Must just repeat the quote from the ep we're now watching:

Cunnilingus and psychiatry brought us to this.

Absolute modern poetry.

😄😄my favourite quote from the whole show!

Ha, same. If I haven't been doing much and he asks me what I've got up to I say farting into the same cushion for 18 months like uncle junior

Gutted to go all the way to the New York Plaza for Afternoon Tea under the Eloise portrait, and you can’t!

Livia was evil!!!

I understand that her upbringing makes her believe that family loyalty is the most important thing but I hate how she pushes her friends to remain in their toxic marriages.

I know right!! I mean what kind of a mother puts a contract out on her sons life 😂

Oh god I know

Blind eye and all that

Her and that painter though! 🥴

Best episode is Pine Barrens, when Christopher eats ketchup out of the packet in that abandoned station wagon

@coxesorangepippin yes we always laugh at that one !

Felt so sad for Adriana . But squashing her dog - there should have been no coming back from that one!
