Is The Sopranos just a bunch of weird gumbas doing unfunny SNL skits about "The Cosa Nostra" and trying to be the male version of Grey's Anatomy? [Lots of kino experts will defend this I'm guessing]

Because every time I start watching it, it's so fricking unbearably over the top dramatic shit.

It's literally the pagliacci joke reiterated over 6 entire seasons with the Goodfellas chick and Anthony "ayyo Toney, where's the gabagool" Soprano going

"Man goes to doctor. Says he's depressed. Says life seems harsh and cruel. Says he feels all alone in a threatening world where what lies ahead is vague and uncertain. Doctor says, 'Treatment is simple. Great clown Gabagool is in town tonight. Go and see him. That should pick you up.' Man bursts into tears. Says, 'But doctor…I am Gabagool.' Good joke. Everybody laugh. Doctor gets r*ped. Play the rolling Stones' Thru and Thru. Footage of waves. Cut to black."

What the frick was their problem? Did the writers, directors think that just because it was mobslop (the goyslop version of the 90's) people would just automatically praise it? (And it worked too). But it looks so comedic now.

>My son AJ is a frickup. I'm going to frick hookers now. My daughter is dating a rival wise guy's son, I'm going to beat him up and frick hookers now. My sister is a frickup, I'm going to frick hookers now. One of my closest henchmen is a snitch, I'm going to kill him and frick hookers now. My protege whom I loved is a druggies, I'm going to kill him, go to vegas, do peyote and oh, also I'm going to frick hookers now.

How is this not seen as an overly melodramatic piece of shit? :marseyxd:

How is this even a top 25 show of all time, let alone compare with The Wire, Chernobyl or Band of Brothers?
