I think carmine was actually a lot smarter than anyone thought. He stayed out of the war and everything else. He was living the life in Florida and in the end, he was rich, he wasn’t on the feds radar, and had no worries.
It's been floated that he even threw the sitdown on purpose, knowing exactly what bringing up Billy would do. In any case, Carmine Jr is undoubtedly among the most important characters on the show.
@@kcmule Watching in reverse, you definitely get the sense that he wasn't always on top of his game, BUT you get a clear sense that he learned over time how to play his own strengths and most importantly play on others weaknesses. You can see an almost straight line from his 1st appearances where he's double crossing Tony to kiss Carmine Sr's ass, to getting played by Rusty, to becoming a "failing" voice of reason that never gets blamed for long and that every one of the capos and bosses still listens to
The Meeting of Minds scene's a complete masterpiece. The sheer fucking talent to get that timing and delivery, it's like a comic symphony played dead straight. Wow.
The fundamental questions is will Ceerious be as effective as a boss as Borko was. And he will be. Even more so. But until he is ,it's going to be hard to verify that he'll think he'll be more effective.
Like Carmines father always said, a pint of blood is worth more than a gallon of gold.. Ceerious and Borko can have a two boss thing, Make it harder for the youtubee rats to file copywriter strikes..
I thought that too at first, but isn't that the same word, just plural? I mean it's not common parlance, but technically he could have said it this way without saying the wrong word.
@@helpIthinkmylegsaregone I assumed that the word he meant to say was “stigma”. As the guy below you said, “stigmata” is the act of bleeding from both palms mimicking Jesus’ wounds which obviously doesn’t make sense in that sentence.
I won’t call this a sit down because of its negative inclementation. But this infighting between Borko and Ceerious is costing us uploads. I recommend wiping the slate clean, let bygones be bygones - the copy-write strike, whatever happened there …
"Brainless the 2nd" really cracked me up when I heard it first. By the end of the show though, I realized that Carmine Jr ironically seemed to have had the most brains throughout the whole series. He understood when to step back, lay off of the mob life, live a dream life back in Miami. Deadly rich, beautiful wife, not needing to live with the fear of being whacked in the struggle for the NY boss position. Also, the sitdown with Tony where he shares the dream of his father Carmine Sr 100 anniversary, about the empty box that he prompts his son to fulfill not by grabbing the gangster power, but by pursuing his own happiness - that was the moment when my admiration for Carmine Jr went off the charts. That scene showed how he had more than intelligence, he had wisdom. Excellent character development!
I respect Carmine for thinking about Chris’s sobriety. Maybe one of the only people who considered Chrissie’s feelings. And you know.. one of the only emotionally mature people in the whole show.
That movie was 10x more beneficial for Little Carmine than Chrissy. Carmine got a big cut of the money, strengthened New Jersey ties including taking Anthony Jr under his wing, and all Chrissy got out of it was deeper into his drug addiction and tension between him and Tony for that and for the parallels between him and the evil boss. If you think that Little Carmine was playing the fool on purpose, then there’s a good argument for him helping Chrissy to sow dissent amongst the glorified crew.
Little Carmine was intelligent enough to back down and enjoy his money and life and family johny , Phil,Dock Santoro and Rusty ,the Hairdoo and a lot of other guys who couldent retire ende up dead very fast without enjoying the boss position and also lost money and family
This was a genius scene tbh. He realized Tony went all the way to Florida to get him to help sway carmine so carmine used the line he could see Tony as a son immediately got little carmine back on his side through jealousy. John's eyes narrowing when he screwed their plan over was brilliant
Lil' Carmin was the puppet master. Everyone thought he was stupid, like Freddo, while being the son of a powerful Boss (like Vito). The intentional malapropisms to lure those around him to believe he was harmless...He did it on purpose. Backed off, pretending he didn't even want to be Boss, then struck when everyone else relaxed and thought it was over...Including Tony. It was Butchie and Lil' Carmine that collaborate to take out Tony (= Jersey) to take it ALL for themselves. Brilliant! Brilliant for the character and the writing arc of the show. BEST TV SHOW EVER MADE.
Yea but he still talked like a moron when he and Christopher were trying to land Sir Ben Kingsley for CLEAVER. I don’t see how playin the idiot son helps anybody in that situation
Lil Carmines reaction to the news of his fathers stroke is some of the best acting in the show, he usually comes across as idiotic but his demeanour completely changes during the call and you get a sense he was intentionally behaving dumb in front of the other bosses to fly under the radar
Rusty "We'll bulldoze John, we'll be welcomed as heroes, it'll be easy." Also Rusty *Random zip approaches his car in his own driveway after blocking him off* "Here let me help you find your way pal."
Always forget Carmine Jr is one of the few people that actually respects Chris’ sobriety. Funny how brainless the second was the only one that legitimised a man of Chris’ stature
Uncle Pat also respected Chris’s sobriety when him and that Animal Blundetto were on the farm before Tony got there. His exact words were “Good for you” to Chris
In only 20 seconds worth of dialogue (24:50 to 25:10) Jimmy Patrile delivers some of the best writing in the entire show That tennis match with those guys... my guy won The other one, the son, he dropped out He get hurt? Nothing like that, it's settled, that's all It feels so real; genuinely hard to believe that Jimmy was acting - the delivery was simply stellar It remind me of when Jimmy Conway in Goodfellas calls to find out how Nicky's (Pesci) Made Man ceremony went when he got whacked So much said, in so little words
He knew exactly what he was doing when he brought up Phil’s brother and “whatever happened there.” Go back and watch the scene. He was deliberately provoking Phil and causing more tension between NY and NJ. Little Carmine is a down low genius. He’s a bit of a poseur if you ask me.
The most beautiful thing about this show is for true fans, then entire series is iconic. So much so, you can hear simply “you were warned, Lorraine”, and be taken back to the entire scene. Not Many shows paint every frame as masterfully as this one. Thanks for taking the time with this.
It's the greatest show of all time and I will defend that until I die. The acting, writing, sets... it's so believable you forget you're watching people acting because it feels so natural.
Tony could have chose to be a 'Lil Carmine' who sits back and takes care of his family via legitimate business and savor some little of grace, but he's become more like his parents as he loves the dark-side of the lifestyle.
One of the smartest characters on the show. His vocabulary could use some work, but by the end, he learned a lot. The scene about the dream was fantastic. Little Carmine had personal insight that Tony could ony dream of (no pun intended). Tony probably despised him for that.
They way him and his dad just slaughter the English language is right up on a pedestal with Ricky from the trailer park boys. Best characters on the show

-Little C using the feds to get rid of Tony by the feds painting Tony into a corner and Tony ordering the hit on himself and filling the void left by Tony's death and Silvio's new life as a potato.
Say what you want about Little Carmine.. the dude was a class act. Dropped everything once he heard about his Dad, was respectful of Christopher’s sobriety…. Just a nice guy. I’d totally help him with chores around the house.
The fundamental question is, will Ceerious be as effective as a boss? And he will be, even more so. But until he is, its going to be hard to verify that he thinks he'll be more effective.
I am reminded of Don, whatevers channel... junior something... he built the best sopranos channel, it even outshone borko... in the end, borko clapped him in copy right strikes...
I miss James Gandolfini soo much. He is such a good actor and just makes any scene he is in much more captivating. I just finished watching Down the Shore. I also loved him and Hardy in The Drop.
wow this edit is extremely effective , encapsulates the throughlines ...blown away by the depth of this after all these years how much i didnt appreciate. ..Thoroughly explains what ' stability ' looked like, and why Tony was trying everything possible to preserve it ( power sharing idea) and then the cost and mayhem that resulted when it was lost. Its embarrassing to admit there are adfitional layers of profound impact I didn't really get. But it's not my fault how, can a person be expected to see much after hearing shit like " I am reminded of Louis The ....his finance minister...THE something..." Very allegorical. Bit of a pose-ore
"Reminsicent of Louis theeee sumthin. His minister, the sumthin built that chateau in Paris. The one that outshined Vursales" Wisdom like that does not come cheaply
I like how Jon doesn’t even acknowledge Sil “40 percent” comment. Shows that Jon is the next boss of New York. Similar to when Uncle junior didn’t acknowledge Jackie Jr in Richie meeting “is someone here, who’s that speaking”.
Carmine Jr. was a genius! He was living a life of luxury in Miami while NY and NJ were blasting each other away, he was running legit businesses and he was not looking over his shoulder!
Watching Little Carmine I am reminded of Curly the...whatever..of The Something (Stooges?) ..he too was a 'wise guy', who was at the precipice of an enormous crossroad...
Brilliant. The way Lil’ Carmine completely switched up on Tony after hearing his father say “like a son” 😂, easily could’ve been interpreted as someone you looked at as a brother 🤦🏽♂️
Little Carmine could've been an effective leader and boss, his problem was that he tended to either speak in nonsensical riddles which confused those around him, or he'd speak without thinking and inflame a situation even more than it already was.
@anonymouswatcher37 The best way to describe Little Carmine would be the latin phrase: "si, tacuisses, philosiphus mansisses", which means: "the unwise philosopher speaks without thinking". Or to put it another way: "if he kept his mouth shut they might've thought he was clever".
Watching it back he 100% instigated the Phil/Tony beef again on purpose. That was a sneaky power play and he hid behind the ‘oh me and my stupid mouth’ schtick that ppl just assumed it was all an accident. That gutted both crews at the end of the series and Carmine could just watch the chips fall
Ok I just have to let it be known, this particular line from Brainless the Second is truly one of the best, most iconic lines in TV history: "I am reminded of Lewis the whatever's finance minister... duhh something. He built the Chateau. Nicole and I saw when went to Paris... It even outshone Versails - where the King lived... in the end, Lewis clapped him in irons." A long, drawn out, mispronounced analogy that ended up meaning nothing. Just incredible. Gets better every time. Literally defines his character. The puzzled look and gesture from Tony combined with the utmost confidence and sparking up of a cigar from Little Carmine afterwards is just so so good. Looking back, Little Carmine was really a pivotal character in ways we didn't understand on our first viewing. The quote above came at a significant time when there was real conflict between two of the biggest players amongst the five families and not only made an impact, but set the tone on his role within the Jersey/NY beef that ran throughout the rest of the show. He would come off as intelligent for a one second after one line and then appear totally ignorant or uninformed the next. I feel like he was intentionally placed by the writers in Miami to make almost random appearances in NY for building up new characters and their affiliation/backstory (Rusty and Phil for example) just to exacerbate the tension between the two families. The exploration of Little Carmine and larger role he played beyond the surface level of the show is so interesting to me. Maybe I'm hyping it up because he was intentionally written as comic relief with all his gaffes and malapropisms. I don't know. Anyways, four dollars a pound.
I think this is one of the more effective videos of this show. But until I watch it, it's going to be very hard to verify that it will be.

@@Djm8520 Doug? its a friggin nickname. Family name is Dougarelli 😆 ❤️
I miss James Gandolfini soo much. He is such a good actor and just makes any scene he is in much more captivating. I just finished watching Down the Shore. I also loved him and Hardy in The Drop.
"The sacred and the propane". 😂
Thankyou for this mellifluous upload ceerious. You're a good kid, up and coming.
you got it!
Ceerious sticks with us , we'll have em eating lunch like that everyday
Hey oh! Two uploads in a day
3. short later in an hour or 2
Charmaine Bucco would win the Wet T-shirt Contest.
Lorraine C had a nice pair as well
wow this edit is extremely effective , encapsulates the throughlines ...blown away by the depth of this after all these years how much i didnt appreciate. ..Thoroughly explains what ' stability ' looked like, and why Tony was trying everything possible to preserve it ( power sharing idea) and then the cost and mayhem that resulted when it was lost. Its embarrassing to admit there are adfitional layers of profound impact I didn't really get. But it's not my fault how, can a person be expected to see much after hearing shit like " I am reminded of Louis The ....his finance minister...THE something..." Very allegorical. Bit of a pose-ore
thanks man. i try my best with these story edits.
keep it up man, I should think the writers would be grateful ...but if not , I know a guy 😅
Lmaoooo the louis whatever versalles sht then the dramatic pause with the cigar.... xDDDD
The sacred and the propane
When Tony said to Johnny Sack, let's talk about the 500 pound elephant in the room.
I thought he was talking about Ginny Sack.
Ceerious has had 9 pictures under his sub-species.
"Reminsicent of Louis theeee sumthin. His minister, the sumthin built that chateau in Paris. The one that outshined Vursales"
Wisdom like that does not come cheaply
Louis the whatever. Completely different guy and completely different era.
I love that you include scenes of people talking about the character in these, not just appearances. Thank you ceerious!!
glad you enjoy them. thank you.
Looking more into the whole Opus Dei debacle was a blast. 17 years later, this show will still send me down rabbit holes every now and then.
42:22 but Butch is seeing everybody!
I love how Johnny sac looks after lil carmine switched up 😂😂
31:30, the jacket/wire gesture with the line, "My heart is an open book" i liked it a lot, smooth and cute lol
"Johnny should be looking for the real killers. Not out on a golf course." Nice O.J. Simpson reference.
what a tremendous way to watch this thing of theirs, thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Long John Silver killed Joe Peeps 😂
It's sad when they go young like that
The sacred and the propane always cracks me. This dude’s out here having holy bbqs at Tony’s house 😂
I like how Jon doesn’t even acknowledge Sil “40 percent” comment. Shows that Jon is the next boss of New York.
Similar to when Uncle junior didn’t acknowledge Jackie Jr in Richie meeting “is someone here, who’s that speaking”.
nice call
Those who want respect give respect.
I disagree
He stayed silent because he expected them to decline and he was thinking about ordering the hit on Carmine Sr.
Carmine Jr. was a genius! He was living a life of luxury in Miami while NY and NJ were blasting each other away, he was running legit businesses and he was not looking over his shoulder!
To much effort on this, respect.
lots of time. its a thankless job. appreciate you. ❤️
Watching Little Carmine I am reminded of Curly the...whatever..of The Something (Stooges?) ..he too was a 'wise guy', who was at the precipice of an enormous crossroad...
Very allegorical...
I always enjoy the conversations between fuckin Brainless the second and the King of beef and sausage by the carload
Why does Little Carmine always speak like he's writing poetry? I love his character...
Paulie getting annoyed at Little Carmine caving is hilarious 😂
Brilliant. The way Lil’ Carmine completely switched up on Tony after hearing his father say “like a son” 😂, easily could’ve been interpreted as someone you looked at as a brother 🤦🏽♂️
Little Carmine could've been an effective leader and boss, his problem was that he tended to either speak in nonsensical riddles which confused those around him, or he'd speak without thinking and inflame a situation even more than it already was.
@anonymouswatcher37
The best way to describe Little Carmine would be the latin phrase: "si, tacuisses, philosiphus mansisses", which means:
"the unwise philosopher speaks without thinking".
Or to put it another way: "if he kept his mouth shut they might've thought he was clever".
Watching it back he 100% instigated the Phil/Tony beef again on purpose. That was a sneaky power play and he hid behind the ‘oh me and my stupid mouth’ schtick that ppl just assumed it was all an accident. That gutted both crews at the end of the series and Carmine could just watch the chips fall
I think youre right@dufaur90
He was the exact opposite of the old man, he said EVERYTHING and no one heard nothing...
Make clips of this character’s story, that character. Never enough uploads for ceerious
Ok I just have to let it be known, this particular line from Brainless the Second is truly one of the best, most iconic lines in TV history:
"I am reminded of Lewis the whatever's finance minister... duhh something. He built the Chateau. Nicole and I saw when went to Paris... It even outshone Versails - where the King lived... in the end, Lewis clapped him in irons."
A long, drawn out, mispronounced analogy that ended up meaning nothing. Just incredible. Gets better every time. Literally defines his character. The puzzled look and gesture from Tony combined with the utmost confidence and sparking up of a cigar from Little Carmine afterwards is just so so good.
Looking back, Little Carmine was really a pivotal character in ways we didn't understand on our first viewing. The quote above came at a significant time when there was real conflict between two of the biggest players amongst the five families and not only made an impact, but set the tone on his role within the Jersey/NY beef that ran throughout the rest of the show. He would come off as intelligent for a one second after one line and then appear totally ignorant or uninformed the next. I feel like he was intentionally placed by the writers in Miami to make almost random appearances in NY for building up new characters and their affiliation/backstory (Rusty and Phil for example) just to exacerbate the tension between the two families. The exploration of Little Carmine and larger role he played beyond the surface level of the show is so interesting to me. Maybe I'm hyping it up because he was intentionally written as comic relief with all his gaffes and malapropisms. I don't know.
Anyways, four dollars a pound.
He is a smart guy, his mind connects dots and sees patterns also has good instincts but had a hard time explaining his thoughts
One of the most well written characters ever. Amazing 👏
Great. Let's wipe the slate clean. The no-post videos. Borko's brother - whatever happened there.
whatever happened there? ill tell you what happened. he put 6 discord links on his channel without any provacation whatsoever.
My cousin is banned!@@ceerious
sopranos was a dark comedy, not a drama :P
Li'l carmine's story takes some time. It's uncollaboratively junctioned in a furious way..
The first time I've seen Johnny Sac actually smiling in genuine happiness
