This scene makes me laugh every time I watch it. It is so hilarious how Tony went from knocking therapy and being concerned with AJ to using AJ's therapist as a substitute for Dr.Melfi. That look that Carmela gave Tony was priceless. It looked like she wanted to say Jesus Christ Tony! Goddamit this is not about you and your vindictive mother or your depression! Get over it!
She gave him that look because she knew Tony was setting himself up to go back into therapy with an attractive woman that he would inevitably attempt to seduce. When she was gone from the room Tony made that apparent by the looks he gave her, as he was attempting to charm her nonverbally (not shown in this clip). Funny because he never acted this way or came out to AJs therapist this way. Carmella saw he was attempting to project the same fantasy situation he had with Melfi onto this new therapist and got jealous. Great scene that revealed Tony's character and motives, which occurs a few scenes after Melfi had kicked him out of therapy.
Honestly, you'd think after his horrible Mother dying, he'd be happy. He even said it to Melfi, that he was happy that she died. The bitch is dead. Good Riddance! Move on with your life, Tony. All of this was probably going through Carmela's head.
It's because she's an inadequate therapist, she bizarrely sees Livia's outright sadism and spiteful nature as BPD symptoms rather than more obviously NPD symptoms which even Janice later recognises.
No it would not have. Aj wanting to join the military was actually a fantasy brought on by subconscious programming from the things he was seeing on television and reading on the internet. Just like how he took the commercials and advertisements about depression and sleep deprivation and used that to justify his lack of motivation to do anything. On top of that fact he was just emulating his father. Carmella picked up on it and that's why the fight with Tony happened just after the suicide attempt when Tony tells her he is now depressed. In season 6 AJ changes his career aspirations every other episode. We also see Meadow have a similar crisis at the end of the series. It's clear they both have become aware of their own privilege in life and deep down resent it, which in the end serves to show that Tony's sacrifices for his family were in vain. This show uses televisions and art to show the viewer the kind of fantasies and motivations going on in characters heads, and how what they see also projects certain ideas into their own subconscious. We see this throughout the entire show with Tony and his fascination with war, cowboy movies and history documentaries; and with Carmella and her fascination with Renaissance art.
The sad thing is Livia is clearly NPD as Janice basically said in season 6 if my memory is correct, so if he got this "diagnosis" from Melfi it's pretty inaccurate. There are unofficially recognised "subtypes" of BPD where the impulsive subtype is very narcissistic/histrionic but otherwise they are actually clearly distinct personality disorders and a competent psychiatrist would know that, BPD sufferers are capable of empathy and often do want to work on themselves, they just have a very insecure sense of self and a pattern of impulsive self destructive behaviour. NPD is far harder to treat and they will very rarely actively seek out therapy in the first place (because they will usually refuse to recognise anything is wrong with them)

Jesus Christ, whatever happened to the strong, silent type?
The strong, silent type, whatever happened there
It looks like the silent type had vanished since Tony no longer acts like it anymore.

Awesome 👌 Are you a pre-teen? You literally just stated exactly what happens in the scene, and slapped a "It's so hilarious how..." on the front. 🤦

My mudda was a borda line per-son-al-ity. So what?!
Proceeds to make a huge deal out of the thing he presented as not being a big deal.
“See I never could please my mother”
Stop it
He wasn’t Chris Chan
Oh, the mother now
How about when he tried to turn Hesh into his therapist lol
Hesh? A therapist? He’s a glorified jew!
Hesh was being helpful, but he changed on ramble things about life than helping Tony with his problems.
I think this really goes to show that Tony can’t and won’t change
That actress is gorgeous.
oof madon. I didn't see it the first few times I watched the series but she is a beauty.
Sure is
I could certainly believe Tony's stirrings if Melfi looked like that
Being in the military would’ve saved A.J from being a Mobster.
... AJ a Mobster? U sure?
@@remisan7214 hes working for lil carmine by the end of the series but all depends if lil carmine wanted to become boss
@@maximilianavila7510 He was working as a production assistant for Carmine's production company on a straight-to-DVD movie. Not exactly a "Mobster".
Tony wouldve whip his ass...if he even talked about joining.

haha this scene is hilarious
That look she gives LOL
I loved this scene. Thank you for uploading!
Love how this shows how Tony has made absolutely zero progress from the first season
I find it interesting that AJ's psychiatrist looks like a younger carmela
they're both milfs after all
You go about in pity for yourself.
Shishkabaa!
Lmao this guy couldnt help himself 🤣
Hottest woman on the show hands down
0:59 well he certainly has a way with therapists 1:04
By this moment i realized tony was just as annoying as Janice

livia meets basically every criteria for bpd, plus narcissism is a pretty big factor in cluster b personality disorders. she definitely has it
I think this scene and paulie in italy is where the show turns to comedy
I was expecting him to tell her about his waste management business
AJ was the only normal one in that household. The answer he gave the therapist about learning Arabic proves it.
wtf is this quality
Are you 8 years old ? This is how RUclips was 10 years ago.
damn the therapist is hot
