It took me a while to realize this, but tony isn't crying for his mother in the last scene, he's crying for the good mother he never had.

It took me a couple watches to understand too. “He can’t possibly see his mother like that, can he?” He doesn’t. It’s the mother he wish he had.

It's wild to think that David Chase's idea for the show would have had Livia live through the duration of the show, constantly being a source of tension and angst for Tony. When Nancy Marchand died, it forced him to have to alter the show a bit.

The subtle joke of Tony saying the kids can go in the pool and patsy’s blank reaction knowing he just pissed in it 😂 and the very ending of the episode showing the fbi is going to be listening to a lot of conversation that doesn’t interest them

I loved the way ghosts permeate this episode: AJ thinking Livia is there, the brief reflection of Pussy, that old guy on the stairs behind Tony. The whole episode just feels eerie and I loved that.

The old guy is junior

If I remember my Soprano trivia, Livia had passed away in real life before the episode, so her appearance is a result of movie technology.

Loving the channel Cristy. This is a great time going through The Sopranos with you.

32:36 “nobody told us till the 80’s”😂

The music in Sopranos episodes is rarely acknowledged by people reacting to this series. The series creator, David Chase, uses the music like a character. The outro music has meaning but nobody reacting to the series ever talks about it. I know copyright probably keeps you from playing it, but you'd be well served to view the outro music as part of the episode and pay attention to the lyrics. The music that was being cross faded with 'every breath you take' is a song named 'Peter Gunn', the theme song for a TV series of the same name from 1958-1961. It was composed by Henri Mancini and the show was one of the first detective series made for television. The Peter Gunn theme won an Emmy award.

The movie Tony was watching is 'The Public Enemy' 1931 starring James Cagney. Watching the first gangster films with Cagney and Edward G Robinson you understand where it all came from.

That song you were talking about is called "Every Breath you Take' by the Police. It fits perfectly with them being spied on. The whole song is basically "every step you take, every move you make, every bond you break, and every word you say, I'll be watching you." From the name of the band to pretty much all of the lyrics it fits perfectly with being under surveillance by the Feds.

Mashup with Peter Gunn

I LOVED the mixed music theme in the first episode. Still stuck in my head all these years later.

Cristy, the stolen airline tickets thing got resolved by Nancy Marchand's unfortunate passing away between seasons 2 and 3, David Chase had at least half of season 3 planned and written around that storyline but he had to re-write it due to her passing.

I love this episode, mostly for the Police/Peter Gunn mashup...And that "remembrance" in the second ep is another favorite.

The wake scene is cited by almost everybody as the scene where it took the longest to shoot because NOBODY could keep a straight face lol.

You're the best Sopranos reactor in quite some time!!! I can't wait for you to dive into more mob content. Here's the movies you must see, if you haven't already. And I recommend you start peppering them in now. It'll boost your mob IQ going forward into later Sopranos seasons: (The Big 3) 1. Goodfellas 2. Godfather 1 and 2, skip 3 3. Casino The rest... 4. Donnie Brasco 5. Gotti (the HBO version, not the Travolta version) 6. Bugsy 7. A Bronx Tale 8. Once Upon a Time in America (not for everyone) 9. The Departed 10. Mobsters (guilty pleasure)

Cannot wait till the next two! ;)

Paulie being a germaphobe makes so much sense for him. Like ofc he would be obsessed with it, be he is generally the most obsessive one in the crew, from superstition (like "3 o'clock" one), to this one, about public bathrooms (which he should btw, about public bathrooms and washing hands, in general about washing hands).

3:12 CW = cooperating witness 5:08 Meadow is in college. Every college/university campus I've been on has plenty of people of all ages for them to not stand out. That actress isn't that old anyway. 6:50 They disabled the security system... 8:03 🤣

In the original script Livia was supposed to stay till end of season 3 and to testify against Tony about the tickets and other stuff

Love your reactions. LET'S GO!!!!

They had a completely different plan for season 3, but they had to rewrite it when the actress who played Tony’s mom died.

You never had gabagool?!?!? It's only the greatest cold cut ever invented. We must remedy this unfortunate situation immediately. Now get right on it and report back with your findings......and don't forget the mustard.

Hunter Scangarelo is portrayed by Michele DeCesare, daughter of the creator Chase.

I guess you figured it out by now, but the ultimate cause of Livia’s death was the actresses’ death.

RIP Nancy Marchand 🙏🏼

Olivia's character passed. The conversation with Tony was a few clips because she already passed.

Interesting that you liked FBI episode (s03e01), some people consider it 'not their favourite'. I really enjoying it every time like you did. And by the way, I love when you say 'how're doin' in their way:)

Great to see you start season 3. The showrunners invented the Patsy character since they wanted to bring actor Dan Grimaldi back. David Chase said he figured that they can pull the twin card once per show, so they used it here. Patsy was actually first seen briefly in the season 2 finale bringing a fur coat for Carmela, but this was his proper introduction. The old woman in the wheelchair was the friend that Livia accidentally ran over with her car in season 1.

the music during the FBI operation is the theme music to the 1959 detective TV series "Peter Gunn". Composed by Henry Mancini

Season 3 is my favourite & based on your reactions, I feel like you're going to love it too. The transition from the almost formulaic tv of S1 & 2, & the absolutely grimy & dark remaining seasons.

Furio’s part gets very interesting

Pretty funny reference to GF1 when the funeral home guy says he's going to "use all my powers, all my skills..." Tony says hey, let's not go crazy now. Lol!!!

I don't think Tony saw Patsy, because I can't imagine he wouldn't have killed him if he had... ...but "Hey, you have a son, right?" was ABSOLUTELY a threat. Patsy is ao depressed by this point that Tony can't count on him valuing his *own* life...but he's betting he'll still care about his family. "Put your grief behind you...or it may not be just you who's going to suffer."

As I mentioned before on a previous episode, my mother is exactly like this.. watching a dramatisation about such a person's demise and the how the people left behind regard them gives me pause for thought. never thought a reaction channel would get me questioning things in my own life.. good job Cristy, for being so human about the fiction we are all sharing together.

The good/fun side of Tony, along with his accent, attitude, and quick quips reminds me of my stepdad, who passed a few years back, in a pleasant way. (His cousin even had ties to “subgroup of Italians.) I love this show but also enjoy watching it now because of the similarities. It’s amazing how shows and films can do that.

Her death worked out fine for the show, in my opinion. Plenty of fun to be had with other sociopaths, like Ralph etc. Still RIP Livia.

Hi Cristy. You have to see the Movie Fury with Brad Pitt!! Greetings from Aruba!!

Yes the actress playing Livia dying in real life is why they killed off the character. I always wonder where the show would have gone otherwise. Livia was a big theme of the show, her impact on Tony, and mostly his whole reason for being in therapy. And then starting the story of her possibly testifying against him about the tickets........ There's a lot there that they had to change direction on suddenly.

I wish the Lord would take me now.

Yea, I also have to disagree with Paulie about the bathrooms. I was a school janitor for a few semesters. The girl's rooms are.... sad.

In those scenes They are snorting baby laxatives 🙂

Livia was taken out of the series because the good lord took the actress Nancy Marchand from us. She died of COPD lung cancer and she was not even in this episode. Livia was computer generated for this episode.

I'm new here

I worked at a bar for years and the womens' restroom is always the worst.

Corn starch or vitamin B.

They snort crushed up vitamin C well that’s what they say anyway

My friend is the handyman for an office building 🏢 the girls restrooms are worst than the guys . Tampons on the floor clog toilets ect .

✌✌💖💖👏👏

Livia died in real life , she would have been in show till the end!

She wasnt rude to carmilla, she was just crushing on her daughter What's wrong with that?

Horrible CGI that took 5 weeks, I think… and even those that created it first hand didn’t like it, and didn’t find it necessary to do.

don’t forget you are in america too :p so if you’ve had school food… and I wanna put the fun in funeral for mine one day :p and I’m with carmela on this one, she did all she could to make sure she was right that everyone hates her, as hurt frightened brainwashed self-hating people do, which she imposed upon them… still no excuse now but this was in decades past so… and she just brought negativity to me so either way I’m glad she’s gone, good riddance, f Livia. But interesting point of view and well said

the situation with Tony's daughter is not uncommon in Italian families. It happened in mine and ther was a lot of arguing and conflict because of it. It's not exactly racism but at the same time it is. It's just that Italians in America have thinned out pretty significantly in the last few decades and while we don't have animosity toward other ethinic groups the preference is to stay within our own. Like Tony said he has friends and business associates that are black.

Christopher is out of his brains with his comments from left field, so poorly timed. It’s a wake, not a 5th grade question forum.
