>let's rewatch the same show 100 times instead of having sex or starting a family so I can point out the most retarded inconsequential details imaginable like a faggot trying to gotcha a 50 year old show

I think at this point, someone like this has gone past having shame or regret.

>Jackie dying was common knowledge and the FBI knew Junior was in line to the throne thanks to their many moles in the DiMeo family, so they had the foresight to write his name off-centre in order to save on paper later on.
Chase really did think of everything and you're a butthurt pleb, huh?
>>
>>217013581
The funny part about this kind of nitpicking is that there is usually at least one explanation. But these morons lack the imagination and just bitch about it instead to feel smart.

how did they get a waiter in there with a button camera? why wasn't this tactic used more?

What was this guy's name again?

Isn't capo just Italian for boss. Am I missing something with the mafia ranks?
>>
>>217014075
Capo is an underboss of a crew

Looked it up and wasn't correct. An underboss is one rank higher.
>>
>>217014150
who the fuck was the underboss?
>>
>>217014458
Joe Mama
>>
>>217013985
>>
>>217014075
It means captain
>>
everyone knows that the real boss was Ginny Sac , and they killed Tony because he laughed about her having a 90 pound mole removed from her ass

>Capo is an underboss

It literally translates to head or boss - your boss at work is your capo. Underboss would literally be translated as sottocapo.

Looking it up underboss has no formal translation and is more like the heir apparent to the Don (godfather) which is itself the Italian form of Lord. Which makes sense from the European history of the Italian mafia and I suppose explains why the underboss wouldn't have a title like principe.

>>217014150
Caporegime makes sense with capo used as shorthand. Regime is a group of soldiers so it's the head of a crew which in the show is sometimes just called a lieutenant. Still confusing but I get that Italian-American is just larping as Italian at this point.

John Sacrimoni. The New Jersey family didn’t have an underboss on account of they was pygmies

So why is Junior a capo/boss? That makes no fucking sense even for the FBI. He's clearly the consigliere to Tony, the most senior member by age and the guy who will talk to the other families.

>>217014530
Captain is capitano - a lot of Italian words just look the same due to their common roots when expressing concepts.

Are you questioning a show you haven't watched?

Looked it up and it's a confusing mess. I don't think they planned it out and the show just evolved over time with characters filling places for the plot/popularity.
>>
>>217014964
I have watched the show. It's not my fault the audience is retarded.
>>
>>217015002
At this point in the show, Junior became the boss but only as a puppet to Tony.
>>
>>217014458
tony was underboss to jackie aprile, and then I guess to junior. but the closest thing he had to an underboss was paulie
>>
>>217014150
Who was juniors consigliere after that one guy got shot by Chris?
>>
>>217015334
Mikey was never a consigliere, it was Livia fr fr
>>
>>217013985
I think that's Dan "hold her tighter, she's a fighter" Schneider
