I loved the Sopranos when it aired, but rewatching it now, it is just so much richer. And, I've always appreciated Michael Imperioli's work, but watching the Talking Sopranos podcast has given me a whole new and different appreciation of him as an artist. His intelligence, his insight, his understanding of classical drama and literature.... I had no idea! But rewatching the series during the lockdown while following the podcast was so awesome. That's my longwinded "thank you" to Michael Imperioli....
Single biggest thing I've taken away from the podcast is how intelligent Michael is. His insights into the episodes have given me a whole new level of understanding.
He's so believable as a kind of ignorant thug, but when you hear him speak in reality, it's definitely a huge dichotomy. He is truly a master of his craft.
@@Ruggz17 no I think Michael does not like working with Steve Steve is too political and has too many people he doesn't like out there in the Hollywood industry and everything else screw Steve
he should he was my favourite character by far in Sopranos the way he kept Tony on ice was amazing the relationship they had was the most dynamic and iconic don to captain relationship ever portrayed in the history of mob films
There’s a lot of shows that you’ll always say “it’s the best show I’ve ever seen”. But the Sopranos wasn’t just a show. It was a look into a life that hardly anyone could ever imagine being part of. The entire series from start to finish always had you leaving wanting more. Brilliantly addictive and written. All of the actors were tremendous. RIP JG.
Christopher is my favorite character in the sopranos and Micheal played him so great nobody else would of done that character justice. His performance was great as where all in The Sopranos.
I hope Michael comes out with any type of podcast, his voice is so iconic and he’s very funny and intelligent. Great episode. Off to watch Talking Sopranos with Jamie now!
I don't get that vibe. I've learned a hell of a lot from Michael on the podcast. I never knew the man was so intelligent and had so much knowledge surrounding the industry.
This was a fantastic episode! Thank you Jamie-Lynn for pointing out the line in the film regarding the baby crying when given to young Tony Soprano; you opened a fault line in my brain and I’m excavating a valley created from the explosion!
I love the content guys, I just finished watching the sopranos yesterday I was completely shocked at the ending! I've been googling what the cast has been up to and seeing all their interviews. I'm so happy to see AJ and Meadow doing a podcast together, it was a lot better than I expected! Good job Jaimie Lynn and Robert! Love you too michael/christiphaaaa
I don't know if Michael Imperioli would be interested in that subject, but I believe he will do great if he starts a screenwriting podcast, interviewing screenwriters of both film & TV shows. Based on what I've seen from him interviewing several screenwriters on Talking Sopranos, he's absolutely amazing in that.
I appreciate how much Michael breaks down the Sopranos in talking Sopranos 🔥🔥I really hope Michael and Steve stay together and just talk about what’s going on in the world I love the way they bicker argue Agree and disagree with things it makes for a good content they have brother energy they hate each other and love each other at the same time I think
@@botmon. idc who wins. See how it feels to be called cheater all the time? #patriots It's 3-1 Atlanta. But remember 28-3. You guys still have a shot. I'm only trying to see if you get pissed. Idgaf who wins.
After watching Michael on White Lotus, I have so much more appreciation for his Sopranos work. Seeing how he is normally like on these pods and in his other works you realize just how good he is as an actor.
In our home, The Sopranos has been watched and rewatched probably 10 times. Watched Saints last week - seeing Michael made me teary. We’ll be missing you forever, Tony. ❤️ SO HAPPY to have found this podcast….🙏
Chris was my favourite character his and Tony’s relationship was what made it the realest the chemistry between them was unmatched by any other mafia cinema they made the show, and Paulie lol
I love the natural chemistry between Jamie and Michael. The fact they're both on the same level of intelligence makes for fascinating insights regarding The Sopranos.
Thanks 🙏 for sharing. New subscriber to the podcast and it’s been so great to hear from you guys as adults and to speak about the family roles you played on the Sopranos. Thanks to Micheal for coming on and sharing his new insights on the movie and the series. I just gotta say opening the movie with a Christopher Moltisanti VO in a cemetery at his gravestone and then ending it at his Father’s Wake was such a piece of David Chase brilliance!!
I did things backwards. Many years ago, I watched the first few minutes of the pilot and didn't think much of it. so I never watched the show. I watched the movie and it got me to watch the entire series. I was so hooked I think for a week, that's all I did. And then, I had to go back and watch the movie again to really understand the connections. It was great! Definitely one of the top 3 shows of all time!
The amount of Sopranos references/quotes/connotations of Sopranos scenes David Chase was able to weave so elegantly into the “Many Saints of Newark” movie… I was dumbfounded. As someone who has watched the Sopranos 9-10 times through… you really have to be a huge fan of the show to catch it all. Jamie couldn’t have said it better… he really does not waste dialogue. Legend. 🐐
Many Saints watches like an anti Italian hit piece. I thought it lacked focus, and seemed to be designed to exacerbate racial tensions. It was a mess, and I hope the next movie is better.
Interesting about Michael doing the Christopher voice over - some echoes of The Lovely Bones movie. I met Michael in NZ when he was shooting that movie
We watched The Sopranos opening night back in 1999 and now I’m revisiting it for the 3 time. Just finished episode 1. I suspect I will appreciate it better as an older version of myself.
I feel like Michael interviews just like David Chase. Leaning on his arms, hands on the face, very casual and almost lazy. Cool to see his mannerisms picked up by someone who clearly looks up to Chase.
My wife and I just finished watching all the Soprano episodes. Sometimes 3 or 4 episodes a night. I watched them all live back in the day. I wish I had known about Michaels podcast. There should be a college class for sopranos. Earn a degree in Sopranos family studies! Seriously though there are so many complex relationships, Families, Language. I want to watch it all again. I learn something new everytime I watch it
Idk what it is, But I love everyone on this show, especially these 3. Maybe it's because I'm from New Jersey. Maybe it's because I only grew up around my Dad's side of the family that pretty much only consists of Italian Americans from Staten Island Brooklyn and here. We did Sunday dinner every weekend at my grandparents in BK and the adults would watch the show. Because I was born in 93 It wasn't really appropriate if i watched with them until a few seasons in. But, what they didn't know, was when I start with my Mom, she watched it also which made me really want to watch as well, because all thee adults I knew, loved the show. I watched all the everything and caught up before season 5 started, and the watched every episode Sunday night at my Grandparents. As it was happening, I related so easily with Roberts character, even as I was growing, because he was as well. It didn't seem like we were far apart in "life" the getting in trouble and not applying ones self, the first real love who also was a puerto rican girl for me. The same struggles man, the show really is art. I had such a Crush on Jamie, I always thought as I watched "if I was that age, thats the type of girl I'm gonna be with." She was soo beautiful in every season, and I also saw her grow as I was growing so I learned a lot, and was somewhat prepared for things because of her characters struggles and view on things. I still have such a crush btw lol, Jamie I'm 28 can we be together yet? Haha Last thing, I've rewatched this show sooo many times since 2016ish and man it just gave me such a blast from the past. I miss these times so much it literally hurts my soul. Sunday nights will never be the same again. Rewatching made me realize just how much I learned and related to this show growing up, weather I even knew it or not. My favorite characters were always Uncle Junior and
Glad I watched the sopranos during quarantine. No way I would’ve understood the messages back then. I was 9 years old lol. Glad to watch as an adult. So many great lesson on family values.
As always, it's interesting JLS says that it gets harder and harder watching more of the Sopranos shows when you start watching it... I totally relate and that is how I feel too. As odd as it may sound, once I finish the end of the show, I start again for about the first season and then come back a few weeks (or months) later and watch it again. Twice I have done this. It has some profound effect on you.
My dad reminds me of Tony Soprano. Minus the crime but his mannerisms, his build his speech and all. My dad passed in 2011. James gandolfini I believe in 2012. When I watch it I think of him. So I revisit often as it helps me cope in a weird way. This month marks the 10 year mark for him. So watching it is a weird comfort. So Ive rewatched it once already, that was our Sunday night gig. He would watch it at home while I watched w my husband in my early 20s. We would call each other after each Sunday and talk about it. Im on my 2nd rewatch. It's such a comfortable feeling. It's weird in a good way. ❤️
@@sandrafry8268 I feel for you. I do. Lost my father many years before, unexpectedly and this show, for some reason... helps me a little even though none of my family has ever seen it or heard of it!
I feel this as well. I was around the same age as AJ as the show was running and at some point we got HBO, probably sometime during the second or third season. My dad, my little brother, and I used to watch the show every Sunday night through all those years so it really takes me back to a different, simpler time. It’s like we live on a different planet these days.
That’s so incredible that these actors were on the greatest show of all time and are going through all of it again 15 years later because it’s even MORE popular now.
when i heard his voice at the start of the movie i cheered! wish it was a mini series but still loved the movie, Hopefully they do a series of young tony !
I didn't get to watch Sopranos when it aired on HBO, I started watching it on A&E around 2012. I really enjoyed the show. It had great story and great characters. I even enjoyed the prequel movie. I hope they make a sequel. I also enjoyed the Sopranos podcasts. You are all amazing actors. RIP James Gandolfini, Frank Vincent and Nancy Marchland.
Joseph Gannascoli who played Vito, Vincent Curatola, who played Johnny Sac, Joe Pantoliano who played Ralph Cifaretto and Drea de Matteo played Adriana La Cerva all major stars and all declined to appear on the Talking Sopranos podcast. I wonder why?
Michael is so right. Sopranos, Mad Men and other shows like that truly made me reflect on my own life and maybe even changed me in some particular way but I don't get that from Marvel movies and other crap like that.
She broke up with AJ because she felt uncomfortable amongst his family’s lavish and wealthy lifestyle. They showed us her having an aversion to it some point before breaking up.
The best part of that graveyard open was all the dead were still yammering about their problems and gripes and grievances. And Christopher is also still trying to hustle his side of things too.
It was good as bottle story with some AMAZING moments of they leave it at that.. If they make it a show it will go down as one of the best pilots of all time
The movie was good I think some people don’t like it because a movie can only be so long they fein for a season length of it with more dialogue. Michael did a great job.
Sopranos is nostalgic for me- my father and Tony are a lot alike, my mom, a beautiful blonde woman is a lot like Carmella. I wasn’t allowed to watch the show until I moved out of my parents house but once I was able to it really hit me… I didn’t ever ask him “Dad… Are you in the mafia?” 🤣
This just popped up in my feed. Kassem. This is where you landed! For those of the unitiated Kassem used to interview people of the Adult industry and he was good at it. I can't believe that he lucked out. How long has this podcast been on? Are Robert Jamie and Kassem on the Pod weekly?
Huge Sopranos fan but when I hear cast members reminiscing and they say, "remember when". I can't help but think about the classic Tony Soprano line of, "remember when is the lowest form of conversation".
Thank you so much you guys this was amazing! All the sopranos “stuff” has literally helped save my life through rehab and my brothers suicide, my divorce, this pandemic! All that happened at the same time and I couldn’t go outside and you guys became my friends in my living Room every day! Got me through! Seriously! 🙏💔❤️🩹♥️
@@matthewramsey5239 ok great! Now that I think about it, I had rehab, a 12 year engagement blow up, and 9 months of Covid/ trouble breathing myself last year! Talking Sopranos and “the Last Dance” (Michael Jordan/Bulls Doc) really helped me get through too! I’ve watched every week..not sure what I’m going to do when they finish up in a few weeks!
I loved the series, and the movie. It ties so many things together, and exposes the lies that were told that were needed to keep the family together. BUT, I think there is a gap now that has to be filled between the movie and the series. A gap that needs to tell the story of how Tony Soprano chose to go into that life, and how Christopher was raised and the events that took him down his path. We can all assume, both life paths tie directly back to Dickie. Tony chose that life, because he held Dickie in such high regard, that "if this life is good enough for Dickie, then it's good enough for me". And Christopher's path ties to Tony's, he sees Tony as a father-figure, and follows the same path. We see how both character's could have had different lives if Dickie had lived....and Corrado (Junior) never paid the price for his actions.
@@RazPerignon I enjoyed the first watch. My bad for loving something so much I'm always invested in the lore rather than be a gatekeeper and shit on ppls hard work

Single biggest thing I've taken away from the podcast is how intelligent Michael is.

I’m rewatching again but I skipped over every single scene Livia was in and it was even better
He's so believable as a kind of ignorant thug, but when you hear him speak in reality, it's definitely a huge dichotomy. He is truly a master of his craft.
meh it was good with 2020 eyes , not every minute was ground breaking , alot of it was terrible 2000's soap oprah drama up till season 3 .
Check out his great interview on WTF with Marc Maron! That also gave me a new appreciation of Michael...
What Michael doesn't understand is that him and Steve are SO funny together!! People want more of that.....
I don’t think that’s the issue. They have several other full-time commitments and don’t have a desire to collaborate on anything else.
There are two phases of Talking Sopranos.
1) Listening to Michael Imperioli
2) Waiting to listen to Michael Imperioli
I don't think he likes working with Steve
@@Ruggz17 no I think Michael does not like working with Steve Steve is too political and has too many people he doesn't like out there in the Hollywood industry and everything else screw Steve
I haven't watched in a very long time because Steve would never stop interrupting and just shut up. I guess that hasn't changed.
If Michael does another mobster movie, he can finally play the don.
🙌
Consigliere.
Put me in Coach!
he should he was my favourite character by far in Sopranos the way he kept Tony on ice was amazing the relationship they had was the most dynamic and iconic don to captain relationship ever portrayed in the history of mob films
Maybe like in 6-8 years and he can play aj the don

well said Bernie Soprano...
Michael doing the voice over was my favorite part, and I loved the whole movie. I had no idea he was going to be a part of it, I was so happy.
well done rob and jamie for getting together again to make this podcast. feels so nostalgic. absolutely love the sopranos, what a masterpiece.
Michael!!! You are one of the best characters in TV history. Your character resonated with me. Much love
Christopher is my favorite character in the sopranos and Micheal played him so great nobody else would of done that character justice. His performance was great as where all in The Sopranos.
I hope Michael comes out with any type of podcast, his voice is so iconic and he’s very funny and intelligent. Great episode. Off to watch Talking Sopranos with Jamie now!
he has a podcast called talking sopranos with the actor of bobby bacala,
Him and Steve are a dynamic duo
@@OrthurMorgan- I know I love it! I was hoping after they finish the series they would do something else, they're a great team
At certain moments Micheal can sound like Larry Fine of the 3 stooges…
So nice to actually hear Michael get to speak. I had to give up on Talking Sopranos because Steve just interrupted too much.
Its the ADHD once again, very obvious...
I don't get that vibe.
I've learned a hell of a lot from Michael on the podcast.
I never knew the man was so intelligent and had so much knowledge surrounding the industry.
They both interrupt each other actually. Thats just their personality and thought process.
How true. Michael has a guest on TS, asking questions about directing, when Schrippa cuts in with a remember when comments.
Interesting to hear you say that because i did the same, Steve not only interrupts Michael but the Guest as well
I only recently saw Christopher's death scene. Devastating. Kudos to both Michael Imperioli and James Gandolfini 🌟
Meh. He was driving while under the influence. Tony did him a favor.
This was a fantastic episode! Thank you Jamie-Lynn for pointing out the line in the film regarding the baby crying when given to young Tony Soprano; you opened a fault line in my brain and I’m excavating a valley created from the explosion!

@@RazPerignon 🤣🤣🤣🤣 And the hip hop producer who wanted to bang his girl was the inspiration!
I'm just commenting because someone from the Sopranos might read this. Love y'all.
I love the sopranos universe “Many saints” “talking sopranos” , “made woman” “pajama pans”
She broke up with AJ because she felt uncomfortable amongst his family’s lavish and wealthy lifestyle. They showed us her having an aversion to it some point before breaking up.
She said she didn’t know if she loved AJ “I Love you too but maybe I don’t?”
C'mon she was 10 years older with a kid.
He was to clingy
I’ve been waiting for this!!!!🥳
I think Michael Imperioli is an icon.
Love this guys vibe.
you know what I love more than Sopranos

The best part of that graveyard open was all the dead were still yammering about their problems and gripes and grievances. And Christopher is also still trying to hustle his side of things too.
I love the bluechew shot out. Hysterical 🤣
Of course Christopher did the voice over for the movie. The movie is named after him. Moltisanti = Many saints
Holy fuck!!
Good to see Jamie Lynn in good health. Thank you for your wonderful proformance as Meadow Soprano.
It was good as bottle story with some AMAZING moments of they leave it at that.. If they make it a show it will go down as one of the best pilots of all time
"Yamie"? 🤣I'd love to hear the story behind that.
Michael and spirituality...I would definitely be interested in that podcast 😍 loving this episode!! 💖
The sequel show could be 'not talking sopranos'. Great pod. thank you.
Jamie-lynn Sigler is such a nice person.
The movie was good I think some people don’t like it because a movie can only be so long they fein for a season length of it with more dialogue. Michael did a great job.
Anyone who gives a review on the movie but then says they have not watched the series, I then can't take there opinion seriously
Sopranos is nostalgic for me- my father and Tony are a lot alike, my mom, a beautiful blonde woman is a lot like Carmella. I wasn’t allowed to watch the show until I moved out of my parents house but once I was able to it really hit me… I didn’t ever ask him “Dad… Are you in the mafia?” 🤣
Ok, another one with Michael Imperioli. Thats awesome. I wish Drea would come on Talking Sopranos tho.
i think she has before?
She has come on 3 times already too
Yeah its strange. No Tony Sirico either.
@@nowey2251 She hasn’t been on talking sopranos.
Is it because of Steve she hasn’t been on? I noticed he hasn’t been on drea’s podcast but Micheal has been.
This just popped up in my feed. Kassem. This is where you landed! For those of the unitiated Kassem used to interview people of the Adult industry and he was good at it. I can't believe that he lucked out. How long has this podcast been on? Are Robert Jamie and Kassem on the Pod weekly?
I met richie in St Augustine FL in 2015, cool guy and taller than you'd expect.
She’s right I would definitely like to see them go in and dissect another show
Huge Sopranos fan but when I hear cast members reminiscing and they say, "remember when". I can't help but think about the classic Tony Soprano line of, "remember when is the lowest form of conversation".
That paulys favorite topic
Thanks
Thank you so much you guys this was amazing! All the sopranos “stuff” has literally helped save my life through rehab and my brothers suicide, my divorce, this pandemic! All that happened at the same time and I couldn’t go outside and you guys became my friends in my living Room every day! Got me through! Seriously! 🙏💔❤️🩹♥️
Rehab, Brothers suicide, divorce, and pandemic??? Gosh, I’m getting depressed just reading that! Hope you’re doing ok buddy 🥰
@@markmansfieldsbwc4674 life is improving! No need to feel sorry for me I’m a strong 💪🏽 survivor!
@@matthewramsey5239 ok great! Now that I think about it, I had rehab, a 12 year engagement blow up, and 9 months of Covid/ trouble breathing myself last year! Talking Sopranos and “the Last Dance” (Michael Jordan/Bulls Doc) really helped me get through too! I’ve watched every week..not sure what I’m going to do when they finish up in a few weeks!
The only guy I know who can smoke a cigarette in the rain. That nose….it’s a natural canopy.😎
Sorry, I'm making head canon where this is Meadow and AJ current year Skyping.
I loved the series, and the movie. It ties so many things together, and exposes the lies that were told that were needed to keep the family together. BUT, I think there is a gap now that has to be filled between the movie and the series. A gap that needs to tell the story of how Tony Soprano chose to go into that life, and how Christopher was raised and the events that took him down his path. We can all assume, both life paths tie directly back to Dickie. Tony chose that life, because he held Dickie in such high regard, that "if this life is good enough for Dickie, then it's good enough for me". And Christopher's path ties to Tony's, he sees Tony as a father-figure, and follows the same path. We see how both character's could have had different lives if Dickie had lived....and Corrado (Junior) never paid the price for his actions.
do you guys get royalties from hbo each year off sopranos, the show itself gets hbo so many new subscriptions each year
great question!
I would think so, have any of them had big roles since then?
Do “succession” @Michael Imperioli ! We love listening to you!!!💔😢😔 #please
Love talking Sopranos
Got into sopranos this Year. Watched it all for the first time. Loved it and I fckin love the movie.
Movie was god awful, I don’t know how you could watch the series and love it and then like the movie
@@RazPerignon I enjoyed the first watch. My bad for loving something so much I'm always invested in the lore rather than be a gatekeeper and shit on ppls hard work
@@kristovj827 to each their own but the movie was a stain on the name
Lol surely no one hits the notification bell.
Great pod as usual guys 👌🏿
You'd have to be an absolute over 50 psycho to do that.
Way to much Sopransos for your boy, but as always love the pod! keep it up guys!
I had no idea this was going on!
:)
