    That strangle scene was the moment this series changed television forever. There had never been a "bad guy" protagonist like this - prior to this the lead character of a series would never commit an act like that - it really set the a tone and let audiences know that they were in for the sort of series that no one had ever seen and set the show apart from any that came before it. Every anti-hero show (ie. Breaking Bad, Dexter, etc) produced after this was influenced by it and would not have existed without this series paving the way for that kind of character to be accepted

      Everyone talks about Breaking Bad as one of the pioneering tv series this century, but it was simply a jacked up Weeds from around a decade previously. Remarkably similar storylines, the only difference being Weeds was a thriller comedy, whereas Breaking Bad was a pure thriller.

    And you guys… especially Asia… I just watched your titanic reaction, so great, but you mentioned your affinity for the deep sea (of course miss Scorpio ♏ lady) and it made me think of The Abyss… it’s a great movie you guys need to add to your list about deep sea exploration, work, and lifeforms that are unexpected…very cool effects for the times, I was dating a guy who was on the film crew at the time, I wish I could remember more of his stories about how they did everything, but it was groundbreaking work at the time. Anyway, hope you guys get a chance to check it out and enjoy it. Have a great day and thanks for everything you do!💚🌻💫

    It's a genius move for Tony to let his uncle be the boss. Cause now all the attention is on Junior even though it's really Tony that runs things. About Doc Melphie, she was right in that Tony thinks he loves her but this is something that happens often with patients and their psy in that because the psy give them attention and listen to them, they confuse their feelings and imagine themselves in love with their psy. But most often than not it's just misunderstandings.

    It might not mean much in todays TV, but Tony strangling that guy invented the anti hero. It was the first time a main character was portrayed buy buy a bad guy. This is seen as one of the most important episodes in television history. Without Tony Soprano we don’t get Walter White. The Soprano’s ran so that breaking bad could also run. They are the best TV dramas to come out in the the last 30 years. People say that the Wire is just as good but I think it get very slow. It tries to be an urban version of the sopranos but lacks the heart. I’m so exited to rewatch this show with the two of you.

    The CEO of HBO begged David Chase not to film the scene. He felt the graphic murder would turn viewers off and set them against Tony Soprano. He told Chase he had created one of the most compelling lead characters in television history - but he was risking flushing it all down the toilet with this one scene. Chase said No, if he doesn’t kill the guy we’ll lose the audience because that’s what he does.'”

    Mob guys drink coffee, not tea. Dr. Melfi is a professional. It's common for a patient to believe they have fallen in love with their therapist. Melfi has a moral compass, Tony doesn't. Tony is having her followed to assure himself that she can be trusted. If his guys find out about therapy, they are going to assume he's blabbing about the business, which could affect them. Carmela shouldn't be held to a higher standard than Tony. He's been cheating on her throughout the marriage.
