Relive the magic of the genre-defining crime drama, remember some of its most indelible moments and pithy exchanges, and learn some lesser-known trivia along the way.
"Buy land, 'cause God ain't making any more of it."
When The Sopranos aired in 1999, it was at the forefront what is now known as the Golden Age of TV. Revolving around a suburban New Jersey gangster and his attempts to juggle work and home life, the show redefined the crime drama genre and, instead of stereotyped mobsters, gave us a sensitive portrayal of anti-heroes and deeply flawed characters we somehow find ourselves rooting for.
Each episode looks like a movie, and the plots are dark and twisting, dealing with complex themes of depression, suicide, family strife and betrayal, and yet it never forgets to find the lighter moments in amongst it all, streaked through as it is with raucous humour and some truly unforgettable one-liners.
This little book gives fans of the show a chance to relive the magic, to remember some of its most indelible moments and pithy exchanges, all while learning some lesser-known trivia along the way. If nothing else, it'll give them a break from wondering about what really happened at that diner in the final scene...
"You don't shit where you eat. And you especially don't shit where I eat."
Tony Soprano
Creator David Chase only directed two episodes of the show: the first and the last.
