I'm up to season 6 episode 4. I appreciate that this show doesn't fall victim to writing tropes very often and can be unpredictable but man, there are a lot of scenes where things just happen for no reason whatsoever. I mean a lot of therapy scenes are some of the best moments on the show and a lot of them are just...a lot of scenes feel like they just cut off abruptly when a little more dialogue can just give them true purpose but it's especially brutal when one of the therapy scenes just stop dead. If I have one criticism it's that.

For those who enjoyed 'The Sopranos' there's a few other series I would recommend...HBO's 'Boardwalk Empire' starring Steve Buscemi is set on the eve of Prohibition in Atlantic City (IMHO it's as good - if not better than Sopranos).

The other would be 'Quarry' on Cinemax (only 1 season) starring Logan Marshall-Green who plays a USMC vet on his return home from a 2nd tour of Vietnam and his struggles with society and ptsd which leads him to find 'alternative' forms of employment.

This 2 part documentary is on Max now. Very well done.



I watched the first half Sunday and the last half tonight.

Lots of good behind the scenes stuff like auditions, outtakes and anecdotes, explaining some scenes, also lots of superfan tier stuff but if you like the show you should check it out.

Drea De Matteo is still one booyah hottie😍.

Even though they were doing something magical...the people who had to put up with Chase and Gandolfini, they were saints.

She is visually nice to look at.... but her publicly admitting that her 13 year old son watches and edits her Only Fans material makes her a bit less appealing to me lol.

:oops: I hadn't heard that before. Sounds almost criminal.

Onlyfans doesnt automatically equal nude
Well she was her example was about her son saying "what should I do with this bikini line?" and her running everything on her page past her kids before posting. Making out with women, etc.

It's just bizarre to have her 11 and 13 year old kids viewing and editing all of her content lol.

Oh it's definitely creepy and weird, not arguing that. Was more speaking to the legality question

Never mind editing her OnlyFans page, I heard a rumour that when her son was just a helpless infant, she used to force her nipple into his mouth to get him to stop crying!

Actress Aida Turturro who played 'Janice' did a remarkable job...Just about anyone I know who watched the series despised her character.
She was excellent in that role. She was in an episode of What We Do in the Shadows and played a similar style character and was hilarious as well.
