Loved the show! Saw the whole thing in real time and have since watched it over again. It was so good at mixing real life with Mob fantasy ,it made the viewer look at these characters as real people that you see everyday!

Tony S. was quoting my Dad verbatim. Though Dad would switch things up with a "case closed" instead of "understand".

We can also thank the Sopranos for spreading the word about gabagool.

Aida Turturro hit on me the first time I met her. She had a few drinks in her though, and I felt a sigh of relief when my wife came over to join us. She was good friends with our house watcher in the Hamptons, who was an older, blue collar guy from Montauk. I haven't seen her again since he passed away may he RIP. He was a good guy. I liked her though. She was very down to earth. I once met Edie Falco through her.

Other than Tony, my favorite character was Livia.

I forgot about my John Ventimiglia run in. I won’t tell the story but if you google his name and NYPD, it should come up.
