Tony Soprano is arguably one of the greatest characters in TV history, and Gandfolfini was taken from us way too soon.

When I saw him THE MEXICAN I was shocked that people didn't give him more diverse roles because he inhabited them so completely. And my favorite performance of him in THE SOPRANOS is the coma episode arc where he tried to be another person in dreamspace: just enough Tony, and just enough someone else. Absolutely superb.

    I just wanna pour a bit of my feelings here about this show because I feel like it, even if its just words to the wind. Like most, if not all of the fans of this show, I feel James left us too soon in our mundane minds, but his part and all the other great actors and actresses that took part on this phenomenal journey that is The Sopranos will always have a very special place on us. I only started watching this show after you passed away and frankly I never watched anything you did before that, yet I was always told the greatness of this show but never had the curiosity in me to embark on this adventure that is this great piece of art. Maybe I guess it was for the best, as I was a lot more mature at that point and it helped with understanding the nuances a lot easier when you carry a certain mileage in life. With all of that said, I wanna congratulate and thank all of you for pouring out your hearts and minds in this project.

      He was a great actor. All his friends speak to his generosity and kindness on the set. He was the exact opposite of Tony. He was good at his craft, was humble about it, and wasn't a nutbar like some of our other big name actors. Tom Cruise comes to mind. Amazing actor...complete nutbar IRL.
