North Jersey but I miss Cali :sadcam:
1. I hate living in NJ that much more
2. Don't see how black people was big uppin this show for all those years. All them cac's were racist and showed black people in a fukked up way for most of the series.
3. The last season was shyt and the ending was shyt. A lot of awkward moments.
4. A lot of awkward and unnecessary subplots/story lines.


Overall it was decent, I put this in the same category as the wire where in both shows had flaws and both ended with a whimper but overall they were solid.

Sopranos was more of an indictment on ignorant Italians than ridiculing black people. Most of those Scorcese mob movies try to make being in the mafia something cool that resembles community and togetherness, always at the expense of painting black people as ignorant and dumb, whereas Sopranos did the opposite. They highlighted just how bigoted and truly ignorant those Italian mobsters can be. A show like Breaking Bad tries to make the hero into some awesome, untouchable brainiac, almost inhuman; Sopranos, on the other hand, showed how frail and weak and insecure the hero of their show was.
