You being retarded. Because it's a badly written show exclusively made for retards.

Like any media about the American mafia, there are lots of people who watch it because they identify with the big dumb Italians who get loads of money and pussy by being criminals, so figure a huge segment of the fanbase is just dumb assholes. There are lots of people who like it because Gandolfini does such a great performance as Tony and the show acts as a larger metaphor for the decline of America as viewed through the decline of the mafia

More than anything else, the humour. With the exception of Tony, the gangsters are not depicted as "cool tough guys," they're depicted as illiterate reprobates, and their folly is played for laughs.

That's what was missing from Boardwalk Empire. That show was very dour and self-serious. It lacked the comedic perspective of The Sopranos.

>>219586117
The jokes.

The second sentence is why.
>>
>>219592488
First sentence is why. Look at sopranos con and youtube Shorts of sopranos or threads here about sopranos. Bunch of mongoloids
>>
>>219586117
The writing.
But then season 6 happened...
>>
>>219593066
Yeah boardwalk was pretentious and up its own arse. It came off as pathetic.
>>
>>219593411
What's your problem with 6? It has Tony fishing with Paulie, the scene about the cat, DON'T STOP BELIEVIN', and so much more.
>>
its a comedy first

The video game tie in. Tony Soprano's Underground is incredible.
