i laugh the hardest at most Paulie Walnuts and Silvio deliveries, they are flawless. I still think of when that poor sweet stripperl brought bread up to Tony as a gift and Silvio loomed over and said just, "NO, No. No good. No."
"YOU KILLED LITTLE COSETTE!?" I love how Tony confuses the son of his top earner, Vito Jr. with Carlo Jr. but can perfectly recall the name of his nephews girlfriends dog
I still find it hilarious that Adriana was the only one who bothered to write something meaningful, while the rest of the characters just decided to roast the shit out of Chris.
That's pretty much the point. There's no real friends in this business, even when chris has a child and starts talking about the joy she brings him they just make fun of him.
How most of the interventions on the TV show should go. Would have better ratings. Everyone comes to the realization the user is just really a POS and they all just beat the hell out of him.
@@PolishGod1234 I have a bad feeling Ralph was somehow involved regarding Pie-Oh-My’s death. Not sure how but, seeing as Ralphie was (almost) like The Devil…
It’s deep, goes back to his own frailties and flaws he sees in helpless animals, so when they’re abused it brings him back to his childhood trauma. They had a whole video breakdown of it
@@ShadowNinja452have you watched the entire show or are you still watching? If not, don't read further Ralphie its pretty much said that he killed the horse, he was also known as an arsonist.
also because often life is a tragic comedy as well, everyone has had a family situation like in the Sopranos, but the difference is these people are all dangerously violent, hypocritical and lack any sense of moral, so it always ends up badly
@@TheBrothers759 tony is actually pretty bright, he had his hands in a hundred different rackets and became the boss before he was 40, outpacing many others in the family.
2:10 “what was it, barking?” nobody ever talks about this line, one of the funniest Paulie one-liners ever. To Paulie, a dog barking was a potential justification for it to be killed 😂☠️
The way Silvio menacingly turns his head like an animatronic at 4:02 is pure gold. I can imagine one of those stock robotic whirring sounds playing over it.
He really didn’t mean it in that sort of manner, it’s just something that comes out like motherfucker and such, you don’t mean it literally but you just say it yknow
Easily the best scene in the entire show. The fact that they were all there to help Chrissy and end up putting him in the hospital is the entirety of the sopranos in microcosm.
It's definitely the funniest thing I've seen on TV. I've watched it 50 times and still LOL every time. Tony is hilarious. He totally did not get the concept.
The pork loin thieving interventionist, Tony being an animal lover, Sil saying his piece and not giving a shit, Chrissy calling his mother a whore. Easily one of the best and most hilarious scenes of this show.
@@thevestalvirginspeaks3847 I think it was quite touching Benny seemed to genuinely show some concern, and sympathy, for Chris with his facial expressions during their readings, sad his friend had fallen so far
@@adamamador1001 have you ever heard of a dog that wouldn't stop barking especially when you are trying to go to sleep at night?! That shit can drive u mad! So now u are dealing with short fused violent mobsters with a gun so for those guys it would have been justifiable lol
@@sole__doubt Can anyone deny that Phil Leotardo coming out of the close to Whack Vito, a tad on the nose perhaps but stroke of genius none the less lmao.
@@Lava91point0 Oh yeah that entire scene is one of the best for sure. Then when Philly is sitting on the bed he clenches his fist and has that look of satisfaction on his face. Great acting and writing.
Im glad we can all appreciate how funny Silvio’s line is initially but for some reason “I’VE SAID MY PIECE,CHRISSY” is almost equally funny and destroys me even more
Paulie saying “What was it barkin?” Like that was a justified reason to kill the dog is hilarious Edit: Just found out he passed away RIP he was one of a kind
Given Aides typical Jersey girl guidette personality and manners (or lack thereof) I'm surprised she didn't say something like "Christopher you can no longer get it up!" 🤣
I love how Benny comes out of nowhere, no one said anything to him, he just starts kicking Christopher when he’s on the floor and then still manages to get his ass kicked hahaha
Probably one of my favorite all-time Sopranos scenes. It all played just like you would expect it to. Tony, the sociopath, only concerned for the dog. He hated his mother, but he doesn't want Christopher disrespecting his faux grief. I love that Silvio can barely read and shows no emotion. They're all not capable of any self-control and it ends with a beautiful stomping. Genius.
Why would you even say that,If not to emasculate him? That's ridiculous. People know when they are being attacked. People at these interventions. "You're not being attacked" "You're a weak failure and ruin all your relationships and suck at life, no one else shares any blame but this is nonjudgmental"
@@RawOne911 There is a difference between telling someone harsh truths to try and get them to change for the better, and attacking them to tear them down.
@@redcommander27 yeah but it's a thin line. These guys were clearly attacking him literally and figuratively. It's good to not have all "yes men" in your life. But you have mean spirited people who claim they are speaking harsh truths but aren't. Most of it is just opinions and sometimes you ain't trying to hear someone's blunt unasked for opinion. And if you notice someone is always telling how someone else needs to change. Maybe the accuser should take a look at their own life and change too. They are Always pointing fingers at somebody.
They did such an amazing job fleshing out the entire Sopranos universe. It's like there's a whole world in there and we just got a small peak at it. So many fascinating one-liners & anecdotes. A lesser show would have simply introduced the guy running the intervention and said, "Hi, I'm here to do the intervention. Have a seat." This gives us that fascinating line about him stealing the porkloin.
You’re weak and an embarrassment to yourself and everyone else. We used to make love but now you can no longer function as a man. Not sure if they understand what an intervention is.
2:03 It's been said many times but Gandolfini's performance is still to this day over-and-above any other performance I have ever seen in any medium. His reaction here is so naturalistic, so genuine, and so nuanced I can't help but feel for a brief moment I am watching the real Tony Soprano. It's so wickedly subtle. The way his eyes dart around, his shoulders raise, and his breathing shifts suddenly. It's so very, very good I am just astounded every time by moments like this.
Benny I think was the only not made guy in the room apart from the guy running it . He is the only 1 Chris could hit even thou the rest were attacking him . You can't touch a made guy without the bosses ok first. Once Chris had insulted Tony , pauly was OK giving chrissy a beat down.
@@BudDylan Why was it OK here but such an issue when Tony punched Ralph outside the Bing? Was it because Ralph was such a high profile earner (and mouth)? Or just the fact that speaking to the boss like that is way worse than killing Tracey, in mob-rule terms, so Tony had little valid "reason" to smack Ralph, whereas Chrissy just insulted Tony in front of everyone which made him fair game?
@@ZIGZAG12345 pretty much , odd as it is Ralph did not break any rules so when tony hit him its a major problem. Chris's disrespect to the boss is against the rules and requires immediate disapline for the familys honour .
These types of people usually place animals way above the liveliness of humans..they think humans can't be trusted... they think you can place more trust in certain animals then you for humans..
@@spiceislife typical sociopath rationalism -> whatever an animal can do, it can not be blamed, due to its "nature". Humans are always at fault for being able to think & act upon or not act upon. I kind of agree with this logic though xD
I love when Chris tells the intervention guy "yeah, you're the guy who broke into Stew Leonards that time, you stole all those pork loins" Reality check lol
honestly, as a former junkie fuck, what paulie said is what a lot of addicts need to hear. the harsh truth is more of a wake up call than any of the other fluff. the sacred and the propane.
Funniest part is Silvio tossing everything out of the way to get in on the action. Second funniest is Benny from the other corner of the room flying in to put the boots to him 😂😂😂
At the same time tho carmella didnt even like livia, Christopher being high there didn't do any harm so she only brought that up just to be apart of the convo.
Benny was always getting his ass handed to him; whether it was with Chris or with Artie, you know, the same guy who got his ass kicked by Jean-Phillipe.
This might be the best scene in the entire series. Here everyone is, pointing out legitimate grievances, and then Silvio goes, "your head was in the toilet water, disgusting!"
1) Tony wants to suffocate Christopher after killing Corsette 2) Sil discovered Chris sticking his head inside the Bing's toilet 3) Chris talked nonsensical jibberish at Lidia's wake 4) Chris told his mother to go f@&k herself (Oy vey)
Paulies face when Adriana says you’re no longer able to function like a man is absolutely priceless😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Tony had a great love for animals. Love that.
I thought he was being sarcastic at first, because I had never seen the series before this. Watching the series in full, I now realize he was totally serious
Paulie was hilarious when it came to animals. I still remember when he wanted to kill that cat in the final episodes because he was a little creepy staring at Christopher’s photo while everyone loved that lovely cat 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I saw another guy comment and all credit goes to him but he said Paulie only swung when he insulted his mother. Then proceeded to call him a son of a bitch immediately after lmao. Beat for beat this show just murders.
"...Yeah, that's not why I'm here today." For that to be your response when someone brings up the fact that you used to steal pork loins. 😂 That line is low-key one of the funniest lines in the entire series imo.
@@bluecollarlitit’s just mindless slang that people use for literally anything they like at this point. Like all slang it doesn’t just dumb down language but actually thought too.
“You killed a dog?!” I love how Tony loved animals but could kill a human at the drop of a hat! Such a complex and powerful character with so many contradictions. Great writing.
I think it's because he felt bad for the innocent. He didn't feel bad for killing people who were involved in his line of work cause he knew they weren't innocent.
@@igorz4582 Yes he indirectly caused harm to a lot of innocent people but that isn't necessarily a psychopathic trait. There is a lot of people especially in business who indirectly cause harm to innocent people. Pshycopaths have no feelings of empathy which Tony had multiple times on the show.
@@Savsaer the guy killed dozens of people and watched a pregnant hooker get beaten to death and you think because he showed some care and empathy at times that he's not a total psychopath? did you not watch 6 seasons of this show? i also talked about his love for animals being a psychopathic trait
Paulie’s character development throughout the show is fascinating too. He was always a paranoid, neurotic bastard but he gets more and more nihilistic and unhinged as the show progresses. Easily one of my favorite characters.
LMAO, YEAH IT IS. The other funniest scenes was the one when Vito fell out of the chair, and then the scene when Adrianna fell out of the chair because Vito broke it 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
