It seemed like he had the ideal version of his family, Meadow had a good boyfriend and she was on her way to becoming a lawyer, AJ was in a much better mental state, Carmela seemed very much in love with him.

To add to the Silvio dream theory, not only is there a few Sopranos themed episodes with Silvio meeting up with Paulie (in this show he's his brother and a priest) but his Sopranos and Van Zandt's real wife plays his ex girlfriend. Not only that but essentially confirming the theory in the final season inside a hospital an old man even says "it's all a dream Silvio." Van Zandt seemed to love the theory, in his book he says there was a cut idea where in the Lilly Hammer wilderness in a dream sequence Van Zandt's character would find Tony, Carm and the kids in a house in the woods. Plus when Chase was casting Van Zandt, Zandt suggested a character called Frankie the fixer who was re-jigged into Silvio, in Lilly Hammer FrankieThe Fixer changes his name and goes into the program. So along with the same actor they both essentially come from the same source.

I think Noah (Gnome) definitely slept with Caitlin when she came over. Something about the way he shut the door when she came in his room, and as you said, Caitlin's attitude after and being more chipper after her night with Gnome, and then the way Gnome literally got a restraining order against her and wanting absolutely nothing to do with Caitlin after that night seems like something that an immature, super rich and super spoiled guy would do in such a situation. Lord knows I and most guys i know, as well as most gals i know, have had relations with gals/guys they heavily regret the next day and do everything in their power to avoid them from then forward. Only difference is neither me nor any of my friends are rich enough, nor are we shallow enough, to go so far as to actually file a lawsuit in order to keep that person away. And lastly, as you stated, Gnome breaks it off with Meadow shortly after he and Caitlin's secret rendezvous. So with all this in mind, id say it's absolutely certain that Gnome and Caitlin did the hibidity dibity and Gnome was so ashamed he had to do everything we saw him do in order to run away from what he'd done.

In both cases of making a joke and a threat, he phrases it in terms of a man giving him an erection.

@@anthonyludwig2891 I haven't seen much of the show lately, so hopefully I'm not mixing up characters/storylines. But in one episode, when Tony was hearing about Ralphie's sexual preferences from his girlfriend and Janice, it was said Ralphie probably couldn't get aroused by regular sex. He had some unusual fetishes (think cheese grater). And would potentially finish himself off. During one scene, with Richie and Janice, he was seen holding a pistol to her head during sex. That's not a normal kink. That, potentially like Ralphie, is quite an extreme fetish. Unlike Ralphie (who seemed to like being dominated, humiliated and abused), it seemed Richie potentially got off on power and instilling fear, and seemingly being the extremely dominant person during sex. But like Ralphie, it may also be the case that regular sex didn't arouse Richie. And just think about that scene with the stripper - it had been organized for him by someone else. And the stripper had him sat in a chair, whilst she controlled the situation, for the most part. In essence, he didn't dominate or contol any aspect of the situation - it was thrust upon him, and he felt he had to sit there and endure it. But it was potentially quite telling that at the end he insisted on paying - this small act at least let him take some control and dominance over the situation, including the stripper, as well as Silvio (who has told her not to receive money).

Lillyhammer is actually very fun and easy to watch, advise you to finish it cause its entertaining.

With Carmine not recognising Paulie, in the mafia unless you've had a formal introduction where someone else in the mafia introduces you to each other saying "Carmine this is Paulie, he's a friend of ours." You're not supposed to acknowledge that you know each other are members, it's a secret society, with lots of very strict rules, I heard a story about a made man from LA who got offended when a east coast boss pretended not to know the made man, but strictly speaking the boss was adhering to the rules. I'm pretty sure he was doing because of some underlining issue though.

That would explain why lillyhammer was canceled abruptly. They pulled the plug 🔌

As someone who has only recently ever watched the show, a few of these are things I actually felt were probably true at the time during my first ever watching and without ever reading about the show and the various theories around it. They are: - Noah & Caitlin - Little Carmine the Genius - Did the cop really whack Christopher's dad? In fact with the last one, I was surprised to hear it as a theory. I definitely thought the entire point of the episode was to draw doubt as to whether this cop really killed Chris' dad and to make you question Tony's motive with putting Chris up to this. I also felt at the time that if he was just some guy (and not Chris' dad's killer), Tony was using it as a way to give Chris some sort of closure. I felt like it was obvious, but I guess that was meant to be something obscure or unclear as opposed to a definite thing in the show with an answer.

You really need to do a video on how the hell Bobby baccala became made. It was not an earner he wasn't a killer all he did was basically take care of Junior and wipe his ass. How did he become a made man?

Basically, sometimes you can assume he did all that prior without telling. He gained enough trust to take care of Junior in those respects. Junior was techically "Boss" and need someone you can trust in the inner circle. It's like the military. Instead of doing bs grunt work, you just do secretary work for the 1SG/Commander lol

I definitely believe that Lily Hammer is Silivo's coma dream from the Sopranos. I watched every episode of the Lily Hammer and he's essentially playing Silvio making gangster moves in Norway. I definitely agree with this Sopranos fan theory.

Lillehammer is most definitely Silvio’s coma dream. I kind of thought that was the whole idea of it.

thats exactlywhat it is. That and the fact he is driving Tony

Bobby, Johnny Sacks, Furio, and Charmain, are my favorite characters in the series. With the first three characters, I can see (multiple) turning points in their storylines that could have helped them realize their better selves IF they had listened to their inner angels. Ultimately they succumbed to peer pressure [environment] and reverted to what was 'safe' and familiar. -Bobby was a good man regardless of his father's chosen profession. But due to insecurities, he dismissed his 'true' self and delved almost entirely into ' the life.' His murder was 'karma '; he willingly crossed the path. But the scene of his death was no less traumatic and sorrowful. He should have been the character in therapy, not Tony. -Johnny could have been a self-made made, legitimate man without the mafia backing him up. Maybe the owner of an honest construction company or even a union organizer. Just imagine being some Wall Street Yuppie sitting across the table, bargaining with Johnny "The Hitman" Sacks regarding a union contract. Or Johnny "Give me a reason..." Sacks refusing to cooperate no-show jobs with the mob! -Furio was a product of his environment, but that environment didn't suppress his recognition of 'love.' More importantly, 'true' love. He recognized it when he saw it, almost immediately. A woman with grace, charm, affection, and spirit. The key word here is 'woman.' Not a prostitute or gun-moll, but a true lady. His willingness not to pursue this romance could be considered self-preservation, but it was something more. It was the first time in his life that he could see the repercussions of his actions if he followed his heart. A love-struck 'bad' man who has always dismissed such feelings, only to finally succumb to such feelings. -Charmaine-the only character in this series who always knew her place in the 'world'-that of a righteous person. She recognized corruption, resisted temptation, and called out those who were the employees of evil. She loved Artie because he was naive, but she scolded him when he was dancing with the devil. Above all the characters in the series, she was the only one who never gave in to vice. Then there's Carlo...

No one seems to bring up the fact that Richie is into yoga. Sure it’s more accepted that guys do yoga nowadays, but back then, that was one of the most feminine things you can do. Just another clue no one seems to bring up.

Thumbs up for slipping in “dysentery in the ranks.”

Something that you didn't bring up in the last theory is that it was shown during that season Chris was being followed by the FBI. Remember the scene in the diner when he meets with an actor thats in AA and he asks him about the agents outside following him? So after clipping JT he more than likely was picked up immediately.

When I was watching it at the time, week by week, the ending was at, 1st glance, a mystery,but after rewatching it, again and again, it obviously was Butch Conti, his 180 turn on selling Phil out, Phil: " we gotta sit down" being a potential threat, being last man standing ect..also you are ALWAYS supposed to be introduced in that life by a 3rd party member( according to every ranking mob guy) nevermind to a Boss!!! Therefore Paulie had no right to go up to Carmine at a wedding, and also he had no idea what Paulie was thinking( which he mightve been open to Tony's Judas!)

With the first theory where Christopher flipped. Notice he’s wearing a hat of the movie clever that they filmed within the show, and the movie was about a guy who was in the mob that snitched on the mob boss and was killed. So that might have been a little bit of a hint that Chris flipped on Tony

😂I'm fan of the way you elucidate these things in the series I'm just watching all your vídeos since yesterday YOU'RE A FUNNY GUY

I thought I'd heard it all. A couple of these offered some new thought. Well done.

If Carmine jr was a secret genius he kept the secret well 🤣

What was it Phil used to always say? Something like "I took it twenty years in the can"?

Your videos are always good bro

I completely agree with the Johnny Sack hearing the joke theory. I noticed it during the scene and thought of it straight away and it makes total sense that when he heard Ralph, he flipped

Little Carmine a Secret Genius? Yeah, and I play Shortstop for The Mets.

If Tony was killed in the final scene, the hitter was hired by Widow Pontecorvo.

Another great video. I think the sopranos is the greatest tv show ever made, making your channel my favorite KZread channel.

All of these are plausible to one degree or another, but I think the one we're actually supposed to pick up on as cannon is that Russ is Paulie's father. There are just too many intersections between them. Plus its a funny little nod as Russ is the guy who thinks Italians like Tony give them a bad name.

Tony killed Christopher to prevent him from flipping. Knowing he was on drugs and would be at risk of losing his family, Tony knew killing him would prevent him from being susceptible to the Feds with a DUI arrest.

The way Christ was acting in S6 it was implied he was already working with them and we just didn't have the scenes with the FBI and Chris like we did with Adrianna, probably to put us in Tony's shoes of being stuck in a 'known-unknown' situation that involves his future with the law and his own nephew

I didn't even know Noah bangin' Katlin' was a "theory" -- i thought it was fairly well "implied without stating explicitly"

"Mysteriously missing Lo mein" I swear man the little jokes are the best

EDIT: Great Video!!! The Chris flips or not one, them getting away w/murders (w/no investigations even) is a flaw in the show, IMO. Like the waiter in AC. From the other worker's eyes, a big $$$ table dined & dashed, then killed him when he chased them. (They couldn't know paulie took it after, unless there were camera, but then they'd really be F'ed) From the FBI's perspective the waiter was killed right after a dinner party stiffed him. The party consisting of the top 2 in NJ, a NY 5-Family underboss, 3-4 other made guys & and at least 1 of them was an informant. The FBI would've known about the dinner at the time, then the waiter is killed and nothing? If Chris was an informant, the show would have given us a little more than that, IMO.

Just as the bobby killing harpo theory, i think the theory of chris snitching is not really true but its a way of making you think about the posibility of that happening. Tony felt that. Chris wasnt trustable. He needed to go.

LOVE the final theory. So good!

I used to roll my eyes at the joke and reference-a-minute but it really hit the spot in this video. Especially the punching of the Hasidic Homeboys lights out.

Apart from the fact that Chis didn´t know ´what happened to Ralph´ when he killed the cop, your video is absolutely brilliant. I have a (very silly) theory about Tony and the FBI: Tony was not killed - he was arrested.

I think back in the old days, Richie Aprile took Butchie’s eye out. Butchie has a defective eye and when talking shit on Tony’s bombing of a store front he says something along the lines of if one truly had balls they’d take an ice pick to someone’s eye. Richie has made multiple references to taking someone’s eye out and Butchie has a pre existing hatred of the New Jersey “family” sort of leads me to believe that was it.

oooh i like the christofir wearin a wire theory. thats a good one. i can believe it. very good analysis.

The narration is fantastic

Theory: Phil is not a house, he's just a window

My theory - Tony doesn't die at the end. The camera focuses on eight people entering the diner. Three of these people are Tony's family (Carmela, AJ, and Meadow). The rest of the people are as follows - middle aged white woman, middle aged white man with cap, middle aged white man (member's only jacket), and two young black men. IMO they're POLICE! The man with the 'members only' jacket is the lead officer / agent who heads into the WC. When he comes out of the WC this is the signal for his team to spring into action and arrest Tony. The (plainclothes) police want to arrest Tony in a discreet, low-key fashion, in a public place (away from his house) as they want to get him to flip.

Agree, and Michael imperioli said somethings similar on reflection of the show. It made absolutely no sense how it was carried out if it was a hit. It's almost cheesey and certainly makes no logical sense. The guy sat there, handled multiple items at the bar, fingerprints everywhere, and there's no way anyone walks out of a bathroom to do a hit like that. Tony would have sensed that a mile away, and there is no way he'd have allowed a tail to follow him like that to a diner, right after a murder of a boss. The feds would have been all over tony too. Every move he made was gonna be watched like a hawk, especially after yet another rat in the family telling them the insides of the war with nyc. Tony would have either been clipped by his own, or went to prison. The death ending seems lazy and unimaginative. 3 O'clock too. If anything that toilet door was at 4 o clock, slightly behind Tony. I've no idea why people keeps pinning that as a 3 to suit an argument. Chase and Pastore also confirmed more than once that Jim Gandolfini was having verbal discussions with regards to a Sopranos movie. For me I think just like the Sopranos started it finished. We opened up to a window into Tony's life in a very sudden way and it finished the same way.

@@roymunson1 At the 01:50 minute mark Tony and Carmela are talking and then the camera focuses (again) on the man with the cap - who is now sitting in one of the booths - how is he relevant? The server serves him coffee only - why would he sit in a booth if he was only ordering coffee? Logically he would sit at the counter where 'members only' man ends up sitting? He (the man with the cap) doesn't acknowledge the server and he keeps his gaze averted downwards. The camera now focuses on Tony and Carmela, and he tells her that Carlo is going to testify i.e., Tony's finished. Carmela looks frazzled (but not surprised) after Tony tells her about Carlo, however, she holds it together as AJ has just joined them. She changes the subject to AJ's new job. AJ's usually negative, but this time he’s trying to be positive, and he comes out with the statement "focus on the good times" - it's like Carmela gave him a heads up that his father was in trouble and to try and be positive for a change? At 02:26 minutes 'members only' man is tapping his hands on the counter - fidgeting (sign of stress). At 04:00 minutes 'members only' man gets up from the counter and walks towards the WC. Tony looks at him again (for the second time) - if he was a gunman street smart Tony would have copped him by now. Right after that the two young black men enter the diner. Notice how uncomfortable / unfamiliar they look in their surroundings and also notice how they're also fidgeting with their hands (sign of stress). Tony's surrounded by police officers!

Oh man that makes way more sense. I mean in a diner Tony's hardly going to be armed to the teeth, at home who knows what he'll do. Plus though it's very clever, everything that suggests he dies to me is too symbolic, it adds up but in a show full of literal deaths it makes no sense, take Phil for example his death was very cut and dry. If it happened in a dream sequence then maybe as Sopranos did get spiritual/supernatural at times but in the context of the show when someone is whacked it's gritty and real.

I suppose we don't know for sure one way or the other but the death assumption borders on the ridiculous.

David chase said it's true he gets whacked at the end 🤷🏽‍♂️

In the last episode with Toni at the table, notice the warning of three o'clock he was given. Everyone was so hung up on the guy with the members only coat. I believe if he was killed it was somebody coming from the back of them to his three o'clock.

I don’t consider Phil being gay even a theory anymore. David Chase didn’t merely “talk about it” as you mentioned he all but overtly confirmed it and when you consider the fact that David Chase hardly ever confirms or denies anything going on between the lines in the show is far too much to ignore
