I watched Sopranos using YouTube shorts in a random order and I don't understand what people saw in it. The dream sequences, the unnecessary conflict, the whackings, some bitch not wanting to do 5 years and having to be killed. Everything that goes wrong in the show is purely self inflicted out of greed which is just unimaginative writing

Only good shit was the supernatural stuff with Paulie.... Well Paulie in general was good but everything else was whatever

Very cool, OP. I watch star trek the same way.

You have to be an obese 45 year old man with at least one kid that disappoints you to really "get" The Sopranos.

You know you can get paid for being this retarded on twitter right? Why are you wasting your talent here?

I don't get it

Kek, FUCKING SATANIC BLACK MAGIC, SICK SHIT! Paulie might be the only reason why I'd skim the show

This post is bait. Don’t fall for it

I wasn't convinced of the media literacy meme until I saw people claiming the Sopranos was a right wing show when it's intentionally subverting everything people thought about the mob and masculinity.

Before this Italian gangsters were portrayed as suave, competent, and somewhat bound by a moral code. This portrayed them as a bunch of poorly groomed, stupid, morally bankrupt losers. Not one character wins in the end.

You can screencap those posts and put them in twitter to get paid. Its not much but $500-1000 a week for easy work.

Absolutely true. Whatever happened to Gary Cooper? the strong, silent type.

Yes.

No.

On the one hand OP is a fucking nigger faggot

On the other hand, Sam Hyde came to the same conclusion that Breaking Bad sucks because he saw KenWins and "I am the danger" as YouTube shorts and decided the entire show is rage porn, so you don't need to be a zoomie to form retarded opinions.

>rage porn
How? It's a dark comedy crime thriller.
Breaking Bad is downright fun.
>>
>>216499790
Huh? If anything depicting criminals as low life parasites is exactly what a right wing show would do.
Not that I'm such a midwit I think good television operates on a binary of right and left wing writing.
Sopranos is primarily a character drama. And the characters are appealing, because they feel real, or real enough.

People who think the show is about the fantasy of being in the Mafia, as opposed to the tragedy of these men trapped inside of this life that is slowly killing them all and breaking apart their families, truly hasn't got it though.

I’ve experienced it exclusively through /tv/ threads and I don’t get the hype. It doesn’t make sense. How can a man turn into a house?
>>
>>216500365
I wasn't giving my opinion on the directionbrain takes, I was simply stating how people who consider themselves socially conservative seem to think the show's pandering to them.

Agreed that it's a tragedy.

>>216500212
Well if you're career is centered on being a degenerate edgelord who evangelizes against anyone else being degenerate edgelords, its easy to see how you would feel obligated to convince people that anything good actually sucks because you didn't make it or give it your blessing.
>>
>>216500455
I think it's pandering to people who value good TV shows, over moral soap-boxing.
The whole thing is presented very unpatronisingly. You never get the sense the show is wagging it's finger at you for liking Tony, for example. Because Tony is a likable character. He's just a product of his circumstances, and you can't exactly blame him for being all of the things he is.
