The Sopranos 1x10 Watch Along

Comments

Aj

I think this is the only episode of The Sopranos that I don't particularly care for, which is pretty good going, considering there are nearly 90 of them in total. It just feels like a lot of wheel-spinning without much going on. The Chris subplot is completely uninteresting. Edit: Actually, now that I've watched it again, even though the Chris subplot is still kinda lame, I love the Cusamano stuff.

The Columbus Day one was pretty rough as well

Aj

I still think that episode has more going on than this one, I also think it's slightly over-hated.

Diegesis

I like both these episodes.

I feel like they are missing the irony of the box as a GF2 reference. Don't think I've seen Godfather reaction here. Are we gonna get on?

MC

watching Arianna lose her mind today was worth the reaction alone, hilariously all over the place in comparison to normal.

Aj

If beaks could kill, his certainly would.

MC

thats wild he's the best character imo

Aj

I agree, he's certainly one of the best characters, I just think his best stuff doesn't necessarily come from the episodes where he goes off on his extra-curricular endeavours; music, Hollywood, etc..

I used to think this episode was pretty mid when I first watched it, but rewatching it with you two made me realize how funny it is lol

Chris Bruneau

This episode sure had a lot of cringy moments, that's fer sure!!!

Great episode for a reaction, Arianna had to literally get out of the frame while they were golfing 😂

Since Arianna mentioned it, they actually did give more context about what was wrong during the studio session, it was just at the end of the conversation. It was when they were arguing with the engineer, he was criticizing the song because it had no chorus or structure. It was just verse after verse so nothing to hook people with.

I'm glad I'm not alone in my Drea de Matteo obsession xD Adriana settled hard with Christopher (not to say she's in the right in that argument)

Why would you be alone? I think everyone would universally agree that Adriana is hot as hell.

Hey Jude by the Beetles doesn't have a chorus, is that a bad song? Oh might be too popular Bohemian Rhapsody doesn't have a chorus is that a bad song that cant hook people? Oh another British Band might not count American Icon Billy Joel wrote and preformed the song "Scenes from an Italian Restaurant" and that has no chorus is that a bad song that cant hook people? Oh that might be too on the nose for the show and he was born in Brooklyn Ok what about New Jersey legend Bruce Springsteen's song Thunder Road, is this a bad song? Anyways, Tangled up in the Blue, Positively 4th Street, Ill stop listing Bob Dylan songs because that cheating. Seven Nation Army, Money, Baba O’Riley, Pinball Wizard, Sound of Silence, Isn't She Lovely?, Every Picture Tells a Story. Paranoid, My Way, Stairway to Heaven, Bittersweet Symphony, Elephant. Also countless other songs that are great that don't have a chorus. Anyways the point is that from what was shown on the show itself during the recording session, it sounded good. It wasn't until we all got to hear the meow song that we realized how bad it actually was.

Christophe

Probably, I've just never had anyone to talk to about the Sopranos though ^^'

I’m sorry you felt the need to write your snarky thesis in response to this, but please point to me where I said “this is my opinion of song structure”. You are arguing with a not real character in a show through my clarification of why they said they had problems with it lol. I do not hold the opinion of this fictional character. However, in the show we see the engineer not liking what he was hearing of the recording and then him explicitly stating “it has no chorus” in a frustrated way and arguing over that fact. Of course, there are other reasons too (meow), but the chorus part is literally in the script. I can go back and get the timestamps for you later if that’s too difficult. Again, because interpretation and inference is hard, THIS IS NOT MY OPINION lol.

Maple trying not to laugh at the Jimmy Smash joke 😂
