true, and good point. here's one. what was the joke told about ginny that eventually got back to johnny sack when he was in jail? |
they were talking about a mole being removed off of someone... and then ralphie said something to the affect of ginny scrimoni getting a 90lb mole removed from her ass.
|
no... i meant tell the joke like you're trying to make me laugh not trying to answer a trivia question. (i.e. what did ralphie actually say?)
p.s. i don't remember myself, verbatim. just thought it would make a good question. |
lol, yeah i don't remember either... i even looked on youtube but i couldn't find it. but i did find this:

dude thats way to easy. that was a major episode in season 4 and kind of preluded the fact that ralph would meet an unpretty demise very shortly thereafter. i actually think ralph was one of the most fascinating charachters on the show. season 3 was supposed to have a story line revoling around livia testifying against tony in court, but nancy marchand passed away. so, the charachter of ralph was written to replace livia as the main antagonizing force in tony's live, and very few charachters on the show affected him as immensley as ralph (especially when ralph brutally murdered the stripper who reminded tony of his own daughter). ralph was at one time obnoxious, belligerent, and out of control, and at the same time he never used incorrect english, he was highly intelligent, cunning, and merciless. He is also the only charachter on the show who steps out of the sociopath ring and can be certified as a true blue psychopath. |
since the questions stopped i thought i might add this in here: i just got home from the bar and i turned on the tv to witness a denny's commercial... lo and behold it had tony "paulie walnuts" sirico (dressed exactly like paulie, hair and all) was in it! no no no! why paulie why? work can't be that bad can it?!?!?!

Hahaha. I love Paulie. He makes me laugh. I love The Sopranos. Damned good TV writing. Each episode is like a little movie, it's so good. But I have to admit I like a couple others better. Here's my current ranking of favorite TV of all time: 1. Californication 2. Six Feet Under 3. The Sopranos 4. Dexter 5. Weeds 6. Law & Order (any series) 7. St. Elsewhere 8. Northern Exposure 9. Wonder Years 10. Gilmore Girls |
californication is boring to me, it's like a soft core porno. and the gilmore girls? tell me yr a chick!
|
I love how these threads so easily turn into bicker fests over defending one's favorites.
Sorry, I'm not biting. |

why would you want a human parasite for a father? my favorite part of the series was when he executed Christopher. What a lump of shit that character was. |
Quote:
I think they're more like soap operas punctuated with extreme violence. Unlike say Twin Peaks, I found Sopranos doesn't hold up for repeated viewing. The annoying characters get REAL annoying. |
I have never seen an episode of the sopranos. No cable, and no interest.
|
Quote:
Hmm, well, they're highly entertaining soap operas, then. Extreme violence? Occasionally, okay. But I don't find anything wrong with that. And see, to me, Twin Peaks is extremely boring. Pointlessly obscure and silly. But to each his own, right? |
Quote:
Ha ha! yeah, a dad with some deep pockets, but what a temper! No thanks. Christopher's murder scene was really uncomfortable because I think we were all rooting for Tony--Do it, do it! |
it's actually just kind of a joke... but that would be pretty kool. nobody would ever fuck w/ you and look how many chicks wanted little anthony just becaus eof who his father was! imagine all the limitless vag you would get! i might be vagina's biggest fan :)
and what happened to the trivia ?'s |
i got bored of the trivias. heres one... how about what was the "blue comet" that is given the title of the series's penultimate episode?
|
trhis show was better
![]() |
The Wire >>> The Sopranos
|
the blue comet was the toy train bobby baccala was in the process of purchasing at the hobby shop when he was gunned down. that scene was awesome.
|
on antiques roadshow they had a full set of th blue comet, and it looked like one hell of a train
|
|
lol, i've seen that before but it never gets old. i hate watching sopranos on a&e :(
|
The Sopranos was great, but I preferred The Wire.
|
the wire was good, but everytime they would go over to the political storyline bored the fuck out of me. maybe because i never understood what was going on. although i did enjoy them adding the newspaper angle in teh last season.
|
The Wire > Deadwood > The Sopranos
|
Deadwood was overrated, the Dialog was absolutley FANTASTIC though. Lots of American-isms and ol western talk but in IAMBIC PENTAMETER!!!!!!!!! Crazy, and it all is if you pay attention.
The Wire and Sopranos are my favorite shows of all time, I like them more than my favorite movies. The Wire Seasons 4 and 5 and the Sopranos seasons 1,2,3,5,and 6 part 2 represent the most masterful pieces of work in the medium. Tony Soprano is the most fascinating chrachater of this millenium, and the Wire has the most fascinating ensemble of charachters I've ever seen. I've noticed people who talk shit on the sopranos are either A. just trying to prove how unique they are or B. watched 2 episodes that they didnt like that much, and decided the series was bad. I remember this one time I was watching the season 3 dvd and this kid goes, "Fuck sopranos", my roomate's friend or something. "The last episode when the guy had a heart attack (phil leotardo) and the guy with the nig nose was smoking drugs didnt even make sense!". So obviously he only watched Season 6 Part 1, of which was easily the weakest in the entire series, even though it made total sense as a "Calm before the Storm" before the 9 episodes of angst and brutality that made up part 2. Strangely though, the first part had the most on screen murders out of all the seasons, but the majority of the murderes were highly inconsequential. No Chrissy or Big Pussy-esque murders. My biggest complaint about the Sopranos was the lack of follow up on Adriana. She was the biggest charachter on the show to ever get killed (screen time wise, ralphie, tony b, and pussy had more affect on tony). I was convinced that her body was going to get dug up at the site of Carmilla's spec house (where she was killed by Silvio prior to the building) which would explain Carm's dream she kept having about Ade visiting her in the house. and then, NOTHING, just Carmilla's mention of her guilt of accusing Christopher of the murder after his death. I can go on and philosophize on both shows quite a bit, even more so than music. Ive watched both shows in thier entirety numerous times, and own every single season on DVD. Days of my life have been wasted on these shows. |
trivia:
What crew in Tony's family was apparently "Cursed". Meaning every season, a major member of the crew (generally Capo) ended up dead one way or another, even earning the joke title, "The Curse of the ------"? It was made into a joke in the last episode when Paulie is speculating as to whether or not he should take the Esplanade over. |
i racked my brain and can't think of the name of teh crew, but i know exactly what yr talking about, and how i laughed when he brought up the curse lol. man i love that show. man, if you lived closer to me we could chill and totally gay out to sopranos. in a completely manly way of course.

very true, it really is simply a soap opera punctuated by extreme violence, a sopaopera about nasty ugly human parasites. the best scene was when Tony killed Christopher, that piece of shit needed killing bad. |
