Why did he go to s shrink in the first place?
>>
>>214631447
It's explained very clearly in the first episode.
>>
It was because of his new heart medication

Yeah, but could you explain it to me? That first episode is boring as fuck and so I only watch clips on youtube. This show seems like kind of a chore desu
>>
>>214631447
It's not a shrink it's a therapeutic community
>>
>>214631447
>>214631559
>collapses while at the BBQ during a party
>his Doctor states it wasnt a physical problem and so recommends to see a therapist
thats it. and the first words Tony says is "this cant work"
>>
>>214631447
They needed a exposition device for their mobster with mommy issues show and internal struggles are tough to write without one. They'd seen Analyze This and they didnt need that kind of aggravation
>>
>>214631850
I'm surprised no other TV show tried this, it's such a cheap and easy way to get you inside a character.
>>
>>214631447
He has various panic attacks owing to his trauma and mental issues and he goes to a therapist, simple as. The entire show is overall about Tony's serious mental problems due to his upbringing, "job" and family issues.
>>
>>214631447
he's american
>>
>>214631447
So in the end what was the point of the therapy storyline? It basically went nowhere
>>
>>214633154
for the writers to lazily explain what tony is thinking to the audience
>>
didn't seem to work, he gets bigger and bigger every season.

Kek, op is surely conducting a ruse
>>
>>214631447
cooz told her she was a real piece of ass
>>
>>214631447
So he could explain his internal thought process out loud to the audience. Its a really lazy framing device
>>
>>214631545
does this actually exist in america?
>>
>>214633217
in strip joints yeah. they dont want customers going in to jerk off, its costs them money
>>
>>214631850
What’s funny is The Penguin aped this show but managed to do it without him talking to a shrink. Instead just a black sidekick he ends up killing at the end. Also they took the whole mother thing to entirely fucked up level
>>
>>214633405
Did in just 8 episodes what took The Sopranos 86 episodes, and better. Brutal
>>
>>214631559
ducks flew off with his penis and never came back.
>>
women shrinks are useless tho
>>
>>214633154
Bad bait but the point is that at the end Tony wasn't able to resolve his problems and Meplfi realized she was just helping him become a better liar and manipulator. It's a tragedy about a man not being able to overcome his demons and instead succumbing to evil before his death
>>214633405
Penguin show is for retards who can't understand deeper storytelling and just want a generic show about gangsters shooting each other. It's an inferior product by every metric much like Batman '22 is inferior to Chinatown, David Fincher films and everything else it was trying to mimic
>>
>>214631565
HE WAS ABUSIVE TO THE STAFF

oh u
>>
>>214633859
I agree. Just saying it can be done without a shrink. I found the shrink shit the weakest part of the show
>>
>>214633313
hows it gonna stop them from jerking
>>
>>214634667
are you fucking retarded?
>>
>>214633217
Yes, Ranjeet, toilets exist in America. Don't come or the toilet will put a witch's curse on you and you'll be reincarnated as Jonah Hill.

He had too much gabagoo' and the doctors told him that the best cure for gabagoo' is becoming a solid mafia boss and also lotsa healthy meetings with a milfy psychiatrist
