      To be fair, it's easy to be cold blooded when you don't have to answer for it. Mistake by Tony or Junior could cost them their lives... To her - only worsened relationships with her relatives, so, barely a slap on the wrist. Female privilege and lack of accountability births all the ruthless b*tches.

      When the FBI plays Tony the tape of her and Jr talking about the hit on him, there’s something very strange. They had a chunk of dialogue between them that wasn’t in the nursing home, it was outside the movie theater in the windstorm. I wonder if she wore a wire? Only way they could get that conversation outside.

She won 4 Emmy Awards for her role on the show “Lou Grant”. Sadly she died in June of 2000, just over a year and a half after show premiered. Who knows what would’ve happened to her role in Sopranos if she wasn’t sick and didn’t have cancer. RIP to an incredible actress who put her all into her work.

And Livia was the one who made that decision...after they find out Tony didn't get killed and Junior is freaking out, Livia calmly tells him that they'll go see Tony, without any hesitation. If she hadn't been there to tell Junior what to do, he probably would have stayed away and everyone would have figured it out instantly. Livia = true gangster

And, in Junior's fashion, through in a few good lines about how much she loves President Kennedy! She love to just screw with the FBI for her own amusement.

    Livia was the only person to ever fool the most old school, poker faced mafioso in televison history. Whether you agree with the “complement” or not, it is so true. Despite the dementia, he was one of the only ones who comfortably made it to old age. It even makes you laugh more and more as you rewatch and see Tony and the guys always cracking jokes on him for doing those exact smart, yet quirky things that kept him where he was on the food chain for ages! BUT HAS ANYONE EVER NOTICED THAT NOT ONCE HAS A SINGLE PERSON EVER DARED TO DISRESPET HIM TO HIS FACE?? He would have became full time boss, even operating fully from the nursing home reguardless of Tony getting killed; not to mention chance of him being boss avoided the deadly war!! If only he stayed more active when he was home doing nothing for years when he was awaiting trial. The second Junior got busted, was the moment it all looked like a promisiing plan was in the works, only for Tony to have his heart crushed when he finally realized he was near the end w/ dementia hen it was too late, killing him major. practically father/son and well known across the while tristate regionWithout his routine “business dealings” to perform,loved ones who have suffered a similar ending. In reality, if Junior was more likeable and had better social skills, he would have put Tony down real fast in probably a 65% vs 35% ballpark and would more than likely pass it over to him or traing.
