I wasn't sure if you guys were detecting it in the last episode but yes Tony's accent and voice is different in his vision.

Would be fun to watch Mad Men eps as they watch them!

Eric Viola

PLEASE WATCH WHITE LOTUS

Paulie literally almost talking Tony to death is one of the funniest things ever...😂😂😂

To continue the discussion of what shows to watch after The Sopranos, I will say that I have never watched Mad Men but considering what I have heard about the show, I do believe it is a show you ladies would enjoy, and it’s also on my watchlist so you ladies deciding to watch would be a good enough reason to start as well. For my own personal biases and guilty pleasure I also wanted to just throw in Peaky Blinders, Snowfall and Spartacus into the mix as they are three of my personal favorite shows, but I only say this purely for my own gain because I honestly don’t know if you ladies would personally like those shows ESPECIALLY Spartacus because of how overly violent it is. But I also didn’t think you ladies would enjoy Sopranos as much as you ladies did and was pleasantly surprised so you never know.

I loved when they said he was cool, calm and collective in that last episode. Something to that effect. I wanted to make a slight spoiler about that for this episode but I had to resist lol

I knew you would love some of the storylines in season 4, but season 6 were the reactions I was most looking forward to. Episodes like this are the pinnacle of the show imo, and showcase everything that cause the sopranos to continue to receive the love and praise it gets to this day. It has been such a pleasure to re-experience these moments with reactors as media savvy and emotionally intelligent as you both. I cannot articulate how excited I am watch the rest of this season through your eyes.

AJ kind of reminds me of Ziggy Sobotka at this point. He has the long hair and he constantly shoots himself in the foot and pisses people off. It feels like they self sabotage because they don't have much confidence in themselves. Carmella is awful to him here but I can sympathise with her being on her last frayed nerve. You need everyone pulling together at a time like that. I like seeing her speak frankly to Melfi about her life. I think Tony not being there helped her reflect a little better rather than resolve into bickering. I also love how Tony was telling Silvio, I think in the last episode of season 5, he has no idea how stressful it is being boss. Silvio lasts a couple days before having some kind of panic or asthma attack lmao. Very funny episode as well as being emotional.

Watching TV shows on Patreon, another fuckin' money machine!

I think the reason Meadow is his guardian angel is because she's the one decent and beautiful thing he has contributed to world.

LM in the last episode: Silvio clearly doesn't care at all about Tony and he's such a pure psychopath, but we do give him credit for being so calm and collected in this situation. This episode: Yeah, about that...

The reason Tony sounds different is because that's James Gandolfini's real voice. He puts on an exagerrated accent for Tony Soprano Earlier in the series, we also saw the ghost Livia in the creepy dream sequence at the end of "Calling all Cars". Here, we see her again. In the previous dream, it's Tony's job to build the house that houses all these powerful figures in his psyche. Between season 5 and 6 this house gets significantly bigger. The house to me represents Tony's own personal hell that gets bigger and bigger as the show progresses, with all of his failures that haunts him living in this mansion he built. Livia, Ralph, Gloria, and now the recently deceased Tony B. As with the previous dream, Tony gets woken up just before he enters the house. This time, it's by Meadow's voice. There is a theory that Meadow is Tony's guardian angel, and this will be the third time she inadvertently saves his life (the college episode, taking out the bugged FBI lamp, and now preventing him from crossing into the light).

Tony sounds so different because he pretty much used his real accent for this alternate Tony/Kevin Finnerty character. If you ever watch an interview with Gandolfini that's what he really sounds like. In the show, he seems to speaks with a higher register and the Jersey accent is far more pronounced. The light enveloping Tony as he's coming back to the real world seems like an echo to the ending of the two season four episodes (after he kills ralphie and see tracee's picture and after he goes to florida and wakes up from the nightmare with his mother) where he walks out from a dark room into the light. The house seen in this episode looks somewhat similar but idk if it actually is. But Livia's shadowy figure appears again just like the shadowy figure in that season four dream so it's a deliberate callback and connection.

Just noticed that Paulie claimed he was holding Tony’s hand when he’s explaining to the guys, instead of waffling about his arm wrinkles and testes hahaha

I hate to give any of them credit, because deep-down they're all self-interested monsters, but I noted how Silvio specified to Carmela that a big cut was coming from Silvio & Paulie. He didn't try to paint HIMSELF as the provider by saying "I'm getting you a big cut", he gave the credit to the two 'earners'. It's the things like that which show that he's the closest of all of them to the 'men of honor' concept they all pretend to embody. He's still not actually there, but he's closer than everybody else. When Carmela was talking to Dr. Melfi and finally admitted/recognized that her children are complicit, I always think about her session with the psychiatrist in season three when he told her to leave Tony. He told her to take the kids -- "what's left of them" -- and get out. Now we saw the result of her not following that advice: They're a part of it, even though they haven't committed any actual crimes yet. They're still in it anyway.

Also, Steven Van Zandt was originally one of the first choices for Tony Soprano, so this story-line seems like a meta-nod to that idea. It would have been a very different show. Gandolfini ultimately allowed them more range in tone.

Vito Spatafore’s ironclad arguments for being boss: He’s a young man (he isn’t) He’s no longer overweight (he is) He’s healthy (he isn’t, he takes heart medication) He’s got longevity (he doesn’t)

Darrach

Funct Fact: Silvio's wife in the show is the actor's actual wife who has acting as their profession while Steven van Zandt is in reality a musician in Bruce Springsteen's E Street band

Paulie leaves that hospital room like Tony was going to wake from the dead and kill him 😂

Daniel_

Tony sounds different between because in this dream world the actor is speaking with a generic “white American accent”, which is different from the heavy Italian-American accent of Tony Soprano. It can be hard to pick up especially for foreigners because Gandolfini’s very distinctive voice obscures the difference a bit. Gandolfini’s natural accent is closer to this dream world accent than to Tony’s. But the actor IS from New Jersey so his real accent is not as neutral and does have a *slight* touch of Tony’s.

Julien

The scene with Tony at the house, on the threshold of death, hearing Meadow as a child calling for him gets me teary-eyed.

Darrach

I hate how much I relate to Silvio in this episode. Sometimes I think I'm gonna die from anxiety. The scene at the mansion with Blundetto and Livia is just 🤌 🤌 🤌

Αντρέας Λίτσας

Please watch Adolescence before jumping to Mad Men. It's only 4 episodes. You two are the perfect, thoughtful reactors for it.
