It’s a wide range of emotions this week as we cover “Where’s Johnny?”, an episode that provides some deeply sad moments, some thrills, and plenty of laughs altogether.  It’s a rich episode about selfishness, old wounds, and lonliness. Junior’s mental state is starting to slip further away from reality as he wanders through Newark looking for his deceased brother. Tony struggles to stay out of the escalating violence in New York, and Paulie goes head to head with Feech over landscaping. Plus! Jordan looks up “half and half” for us on Urban Dictionary. All this and so much more, right after we shit in our hats…

Season five is off to a great start! This week the boys cover "Rat Pack" in which we meet Tony B, the New York situation escalates, and we check in with all of our "rats" on the show. There's plenty of good discussion to be had about Steve Buscemi's performance early on, what it means to have "friends" in the mob life, and of course more conversation about the FBI and how they interact with Tony's world. Plus, some movie talk, as the Soprano women start a film club! It's a quiet, but juicy hour of good television. All this and so much more, coming up after we knock off the massage shit...

We're back and we couldn't be more excited! What a great opening! Chris, Paul, Jordan, & Lily discuss the season 5 premiere "Two Tonys" and all the duality within!

Melfi has to reject Tony's advances, several new characters dubbed "The class of '04" are out of prison, a major character goes down, and Christopher & Paulie almost kill each other over the dinner tab. Plus - A BEAR! All this and more, right after we figure out what happened with the Easter baskets....

Season 4 is an unusual, pattern-breaking, introspective journey with an explosive end! We're thrilled to finally get to talk about the big picture! Chris, Lily, Paul, & Jordan discuss what makes season 4 special, where it ranks with the other seasons, and why it "felt" so much different. There are several great discussions here about Tony's role as husband / partner, Carmela's heartbreaking journey, dreams, therapy, the increased importance of the New York family, and of course - our top 3's! In this half, we give you our top three food moments, top three music cues, and top three quotes!

Chris, Lily, Paul, & Jordan discuss what is, arguably, the best season finale yet: "Whitecaps". Junior's trial wraps up, tensions between NJ and NY hit a fever pitch, only to pull back at the last second, and Tony's worst nightmare comes true as the Soprano family finally disintegrates from within. At its core, our coverage of Whitecaps will feel like one giant love letter to the actress Edie Falco and the character Alan Sapinsly. As David Chase and company wrap up the rich and misunderstood season four, we discuss the ways this episode not only concludes this strange season perfectly, but also closes the loop on several events from the series pilot. We're truly honored to cover this masterclass in television drama. All this and so much more, right after we tort you into the poor house...

The penultimate episode "Eloise" baffled Chris, Paul, and Jordan in the best possible way. For three seasons, The Sopranos have given us wild and explosive penultimate episodes. They completely change it up this year though! Even the gangsters are being passive-aggressive. The rich action is all happening underneath the surface for our characters as Furio leaves town, New Jersey and New York's problems come to a head, Junior's trial takes a dark turn, and Paulie realizes he's been played. It's a contemplative, unnerving, and deep episode, driven by an absolutely elegant script, themes of parental jealousy, a white glove motif, and a monumental performance by Edie Falco. Plus! Paul spits fire for all of us as he breaks down Billy Budd. All this and more, right after we disappear to Naples for Christ's sake...

What an eerie and delightful surprise favorite of season 4! Chris, Paul & Jordan have a blast breaking down "Calling All Cars", an episode in which many characters are calling out for communication with the dead, while Tony cuts off the best source of communication he has among the living. Therapy is in serious jeopardy, while Bobby is forced by Janice to reconcile with his dead wife. AJ continues his rigorous "studying", while the situation with New York escalates with the introduction of the hilarious Camine Lupertazzi Jr. All this, plus more evidence of a supernatural presence looming over Sopranoland, and some killer dream sequences! Coming up right after our chat with Captain Jacobus...

Chris, Paul & Jordan share loads of laughs this week as they break down "The Strong Silent Type" which simultaneously deals with incredibly bleak subject matter, while quite possibly delivering some of the funniest scenes in the show's history.  Everything is heating up to a boil, and it's not clear where it's all going. Furio and Tony. Tony and New York. Chris and his drug addiction. Carmela and Furio - all of it is juggled beautifully here. Plus, there are some really dynamite Melfi scenes where Tony starts asking some big questions that tie all the way back to the pilot episode. Who, in this show, really embodies the "Strong Silent Type"? All this and more, right after we steal all those pork loins from Stew Leonard's...
