I don’t read it that way. I think Season 4 is the peak. I don’t find it hammy really, it’s a bit more subtle than that. He from the start is having these like bursts of joy from doing something wrong, like a cathartic adrenaline rush. It just sort of crystallizes by the end when he’s now consumed by his seeming inability to fail. I don’t think it’s cartoonish generally. The show is darkly comedic all the way through and if it ever does get cartoonish it’s just a result of that inherent tone.

I think you maybe be misremembering Breaking Bad. It’s almost a straight up comedy show for the first season with full blown slapstick.

Maybe I need to re-watch it. I haven't seen the show since the actual release of each episode. SO about 10 years Maybe I'll binge it when I'm on holidays but I was planning on binging Sopranos again

I’d highly recommend watching Better Call Saul first and then rewatching Breaking Bad. So satisfying seeing things come full circle with the added context.

I did not have plans for BCS honestly.

Pretty sure Sopranos would win in a 'best TV shows' voting thread here so I'm glad we can all agree not to ever do that

I mean it’s Twin Peaks for me. Sopranos is a close second though.

I watched it every week and posted about it on ktt1. Was one of the few reasons I still watched TV

Sopranos / Cowboy Bebop / Samurai Champloo are the pinnacle shows I never get tired of

Carmela was way better written

It was still silly at times towards the end like when they found the money in the stove

Skylar was pretty well written iirc but just annoying. What was the other chicks name? The one married to the detective? She was f***ing useless.

And yeah Carmela kicked ass.

Goofy situations for sure but the character writing/acting was insane. Like sticking a Scorsese character in a Looney Tunes situation. It just worked though.

is this the album version? Sounds kinda different

but also

You and Galaxy have the same taste in women lol

I have dealt with Gloria levels of crazy several times. Sopranos had the most accurate depiction of that kinda relationship I've ever seen.

More my cup of tea

Same man. It’s horrible to deal with.

Adrianna and her trashy Jersey fashion

Me and you agreeing on her and Charli XCX
