"The Sopranos" television series is a truly legendary work that changed its viewers' perception of TV shows…And, of course, changed people's perception of the American Mafia.
Before that, the standard for gangster movies was "The Godfather" with its theme of family and revenge. Then it was followed by "Goodfellas", which showed a more mundane side of the Mafia lifestyle than was believed. And finally, in 1999, The Sopranos was released, at which point we saw that the drama in the gangster genre could be deeper and more versatile than in "The Godfather", and that the realism and homeliness of "Goodfellas" was not at all the standard. The Sopranos set a new bar that very few people have approached so far.
That's why this series has so many fans around the world, even so many years after its end. However, not all of them are aware that the Soprano family from the show had a real-life Mafia counterpart called the DeCavalcante family that looked a hell of a lot like it. The show's creator, David Chase, has of course denied that he wrote The Sopranos in the image of the DeCavalcantes, but the many coincidences that have been brought up by members of that Mafia family themselves point to his obvious guile.
And if you are interested to hear who might have served as prototypes of the characters in your favorite series, what these prototypes were doing and how much similarity between reality and the series was true, then meet the real "Sopranos", on the other side of the law.
*The Theme of the Sopranos was "You Become what you are around"*
That’s true!!
“A murder attempt was made, which he did not survive,” then it wasn’t an attempt 😳.
These vids (not just here) use computer generated voices, all they gotta do is type it correctly lol why they can never pronounce any names right 🤣
Who told you it was a computer voice?
There's wayy too many vocal infractions made for it NOT to be A.I generated. Those voices b sounding like zesty white men real shit
Lol yeah i know good catch
@@ontheothersideofthelaw mouth cam or it’s true 💯💯💯
this was solid
Nice content brother . Just subscribed to the borgatta 💯💯💯
Vinnie Ocean used to hang out with blind men saying "hello ladies".
Wow what a original joke how did you ever come up with it all on your own
@@PaulCiccolo I'd be jealous too
@@Rick_Riff 🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦
Were they by a fish market? 😂
Never even mentioned Phil's kid brudda or the fact that he did 20 years in da can.
Madone!!!
The word is maron
Marone 😂😂😂😂
@justiceforall6412 The word, actually, is Madonna Mia.
It's simply shortened to Marone or Madone' depending on who you ask.
Just like Goomah or Cumah which are both just derivative of Comare
Casino was also a very good mafia movie.
Nah
Good documentary
😎 The guy on the left in the thumbnail straight up looks like Squirtle. Not only cause of the glasses but his face structure too.

Underrated comment
The sopranos came out in 1899? Damn, they managed to preserve the film due 100 years. 🤣🤣
When did he say 1899?
He said 1999
It really was ahead of its time.
Arthur Morgan and John Marston could've watched it if they wanted.
@@manuelrawdog7006he said 1999 you deaf fool
My parents grew up in Elizabeth. One of the places these guys hung out at was three doors down from my grandparents. My uncle and aunt lived next door. Everyone in that neighborhood knew everyone else. Once in awhile someone would show up at my Uncle's door. They would introduce me to them, and then send me off to visit Grandma upstairs. When my grandfather passed in 1969, Mr DeCavalcante sent flowers to the funeral home for him. Hearing Tom Dunn's name was a blast from the past, too. My uncle was a councilman for a time, and was also assistant superintendant of schools. They used to lock horns all the time! Years later, Tom's son was mayor, and my cousin landed in her dad's former job.
😂😂😂😂there's always 1 made guy in the comments
@@PaulCiccolo Not a made guy. I did have a great uncle in Sicily who supposedly was a capo over there. My dad and uncle were not made guys, or 'with' the Mafia. I had said "everyone knew everyone else" in that neighborhood. The whole demographic there has changed now.
Since they were 3 doors down, and how Mr. DeCalvante sent flowers. That means you're basically the boss of today
The way you try so hard to say “Decavalcante” but then say “Bah-NAN-Oh”
That pygmy thing in Jersey
Why don't you put stuff out about mafia in south Florida? Miami Beach used to be full of mobsters and the mafia. Thank you 💛 for this, I miss watching the Sopranos. You did a great job.
Sopranos, Top 10!
Charlie big ears current boss in nj
And I'm third! A coupla three thirds.
When the Sopranos first came on, I did not want to watch it because I thought it glorified organized crime. I later came to realize that every character on this show was a scumbag.
Ralph was based on a mobster called Mad Sam Desfano.
20 million a year in todays money is 300 million a year and some change
We talkin’ bout a glorified crew?
I wonder how many people there are?
The Sopranos is not based on the Calvacante family but from multiple families, many scenes were based on the NJ Genovese family not the Calvacante.. the famous restaurant owner, the name , the fire and tried to get him made was true story based on the Genovese guy Louis Streaky Gatto and his crew
it is about them they even had them on wire taps comparing each other to the sopranos characters lol
@@SuperBadx0_ some of them were from the Lucchese in Jersey that in wiretap.. but most of their stories are about the Genovese in Jersey.. i know that for a fact because I knew most of the characters.. the Calvacante family is 98% Sicilian .. so I would know
@@NyNjMafiayeah right troll
@@NateBullock-ow6on you don’t know what you are talking about.. most filmed locations in NJ were in mafia run towns like Elizabeth, Paterson, Garfield, Lodi and Bloomfield, just because you heard a wiretap mobsters talking about the Sopranos it doesn’t mean it’s based on the the Calvacante you idiot.. there’s plenty of stories in Sopranos based on real facts of NJ based Genovese and another thing you should know the Calvacante family is a tight organization with Sicilians no outsiders. I grew around the life so you ain’t gonna bullshit a guy like me
@@NyNjMafia no it’s not lol 100% about the DeCavalcante family
I love how the guy Vito was dancing with is blurred out lol, too gay for UA-cam?
Pretty based for UA-cam
Thank😂
Interesting/informative/entertaining. Excellent still still-motion photography pictures 📷/reenactments. Enabling. Viewers to better understand what the orator is describing. 😉. Wasn't Uncle Sam a temporary guest of Fidel Castro. After the " Commies " took control of the island -???😲. Definitely not a life style for the faint of hearted 😱. Wishing viewers a safe/healthy/prosperous(2024)🌈🎉💵😉.
Haha! Vito😂😂
😭
Does anyone know what family did Johnny Dangerously belonged to, I would really like to know 🤨🤨
Where gabagool fall in all of this?
This video was either made with AI or the creator barely has two brain cells
anyone else annoyed by how the narrator pronounced decavalcante? or any of the names for that matter
Literally just commented about it haha he clearly trying way to hard and is obviously not .1% italian at all
It’s a computer generated voice
Guess Im taking number #2 spot then
Meadow
This is not widely known but Hesh is mainly based on Detroit Jewish mob associate Alan The General Hilf who also preferred black women like Hesh.
The narrator's voice is annoying...
How do you not survive a murder attempt?
Billie Ocean fuckin rides.
When you own a fish story you move drugs
There would be no sopranos no wire no breaking bad etc without Babylon 5 the first show that showed you could tell a long form story across multiple seasons and people would still tune in and watch. Before that everything was episodic and thereset button would be hit at the end of each episode leading to stunted character development.
Why does video has an automated voice and not a real voice?👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎
Whats interesting is that Sinatra supposedly got his start by being friends of Sam Giacana
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_Sinatra
Also Franki Valli supposedly got his start in showbiz by knowing Angelo DeCarlo from Genovese Family
But that relationship was never confirmed
Took the big slam???.. 🖕🖕 how'd you like a big slam
im the 1st
Sopranos is so watered down.
How?
1899 😂
TONYS CREW IS CALLED “DEMEO FAMILY” BECAUSE OF ROY DEMEO how tf you sound
May the Fourth be with you
I wish we as American , English speaking people could stop with over pronunciations of other languages. When news anchors do it I change the channel , it's not going to offend anyone. Really all it does is confuse people.

I hope the Boss of the 'Real NJ. Family' wasn't married to someone as homely as Carmela... Ewwww!
This guy doesn't speak the language very well. His "New Jersey" is a crude foreign attempt at saying "Noo Joisey," the state just west of Noo Yawk.
AI generated youtube videos. Downvote
can you enlighten to us why are you make a video a topic which has already been addressed on you tube a thousand times...get a job!
Stop with these stupid reenactments...if you can't show real archival footage then don't do it...this sux...like that horrid mobsters show! Crap!
Shut your mouth
What garbage is this?
The show was alright. It was given way too much credit for what it was, but hey, society today loves crap tv, so.
People love garbage opinions, while we're pointing things out
Sopranos was peak television nothing today touches it ..
100% agree.
AI generated crap-- make a real video on this otherwise interesting topic.
Tino fumara and Bobby manña the most ruthless jersey guys,though not decalvacànte

You need to do a video on the mob in Youngstown Ohio...
