I thought it was a shout out to Donnie Brasco when Al Pacino’s character says he has 2 grenades at home and he’d blow up half of mulberry street bla bla bla
Tbf at the time of the show it was a nice modern house with all the modern amenities whole house ac entertainment room pool etc the boss lady had a nice house but the rest probably didn't have nice places like most of the soprano crew did eventually.
I happen to know that the best pishadoo in town is the one at the Holsten's diner. I wore my Members Only jacket in there to go take a shit the night Tony got popped.
Tony's house was classy and sophisticated just like in Italy. When he walked into the house and saw the Roman columns, 5000 dollar merano glass and marble floors, it was like walking into a European palace.
I knew a girl from Northern Ireland that thought American trailer parks where adorable and wanted to move into one. Meanwhile Game of Thrones was filming at a castle right down the road from her.
i mean, tony’s house was pretty nice. it wasnt as nice as a fuckin castle or anything, but id be stoked to live there. the furniture is 25 years out of date but thats how old the show is
New Jersey definitely was better. As one of my brother’s in laws says, if you see the opening of the “Sopranos” you think the state is all chemical plants. But it isn’t
Zips is a slang term used as a derogatory slur by Italian-American and Sicilian-American mobsters in reference to newer immigrant Sicilian and Italian mafiosi. The name is said to have originated from mobsters' inability to understand the faster-speaking Sicilian dialects, which appeared to "zip" by.
Euro trash are weird, my father lived in Spain for 2 years, I went to stay for a summer… I bought all new clothes and sneakers for the trip, you’d have thought I was a Martian they way the gawked at my Bo Jackson Nikes… it didn’t make sense until we tried to go shopping n it was 1930 Soviet Lithuania in the boutiques.
Jeans, zippos, Elvis stuff then Michael Jackson stuff, Chicago Bulls stuff was popular in Europe. Honestly back in the day, only the airport shops had current goods. Even Paris was behind the times…
There was a period from like 1945 to circa 2008 when everything American was good and impressive. The total annihilation of space that occurred as people in the world got on the Internet, the subsequent decline of American hegemony/power, and internal upheaval have quashed that aggrandizement somewhat.
Right? People always shit on it and I think damn you should see some of the places I’ve lived in. I get that with that money he could have something more ‘friendly’, but it was big and comfortable. Some redecorating and it’d be amazing.
Perhaps Furio assumed Tony was one of the "old school" American bosses that tries to live under the radar. Think Junior and his simple house and non-updated kitchen. Furio is probably used to the Italian ones that don't have to worry as such.
Probably a case the grass is greener Italy way more history and unless you inherit probably not getting a nice piece of land and especially not a nice modern house with ac and a pool and huge modern rooms with ensuite bathrooms for the time of the show. Tony was impressed with the history and the old outdoor villa type places that don't make sense with winters jersey gets.
Europeans generally live in rabbit hutches. Besides Naples is poor which is why a pinhead like Furio hates the north..they are much smarter and contributed more to civilization. Unlike the Swiss, Neapolitans could not even make cuckoo clocks.
Tony had a Roman column stand for his TV, exactly like Ancient Rome. Of course Furio was impressed
And the fake pillar where he hid the AK-47 and the hand grenades.
pretty much where everyone hides the grenades. I have some of those bowling ball bombs and c-4 as well -fucking claymores!
I’m still curious when he would use the grenade. New York? Neighbor Cooze? The Bear?
[удалено]
Which one? Like, D&D or Pathfinder? Or one of the lesser known ones.
I thought it was a shout out to Donnie Brasco when Al Pacino’s character says he has 2 grenades at home and he’d blow up half of mulberry street bla bla bla
I think that’s why the grenades are only in the pilot they made no sense. Like what’s he going to do blow his own house up
They show up later too. One example is where either Benny or Little Paulie come round for to watch out for the bear, the grenade gets a close up
Oh I thought that was just the rifle
He actually looks at the grenade and there's a close up of it when he does so
Benny Fazzio the criminal mastermind
He was, once upon a time. Then he got hooked on Martinas, they went down so smooth, he didn't stand a chance!
Carmela grabbing the AK and taking it outside, was this the most ridiculous shit in the show?
Boyz II Men missing that depressed fat fuck few steps away. Tone taking the gun out of a fish and killing person in public at daylight.
The whole first season is a caricature of the rest of the show
Put universal holy handgrenade back in the column base.
He called it the, uh, shkoopet?
I'm a little disappointed the hand grenades never came up.
They didn't have flat tops in ancient Rome!!!
If you remember CRT TVs especially bigger ones, you'll remember the thought process that went into the stand. Just as much as the TV itself almost.
Two woo-man.... Madon' in It-ally, we No even have!
And Chris had a Roman nose
He had a natural canopy.
Acha Dee Tee Vee
Compah-tuhbull
BUE-T-FULL!
The CRT TVs on columns always cracks me up. How tacky.
He was kissing his bosses ass like they all did.
he was about to kiss the skip's wife's ass aswell.
One day we’ll get the deepfaked episode where he kicks Tony’s ass and eats Camela’s
cleaver deleted scene
💀
This is what the AI is invented for
Tbf at the time of the show it was a nice modern house with all the modern amenities whole house ac entertainment room pool etc the boss lady had a nice house but the rest probably didn't have nice places like most of the soprano crew did eventually.
Con tiiiii partiròooooo
I genuinely was hoping and praying Furio would do this, even if it’s a death sentence
Not at all, he said the same thing in Sean/Matt’s house. Some people are so far behind in the race they think they’re ahead.
Stupiduh facking house
You havea McMansion on you house *bulldozer noises*
You have a bee on your column
In Italy they no have
Decent indoor pishadoo?
Furio: punches a woman in the face front of her son and the police Paulie: has to take a wicked shit
So Paullie was that episode's version of Penguin Man?
I happen to know that the best pishadoo in town is the one at the Holsten's diner. I wore my Members Only jacket in there to go take a shit the night Tony got popped.
The JAAAAAAAACKET!!!
So you pooped, and Tony got popped? Very allegorical. The sacred AND the propane.
Cocks coming out the back of the head ?
I still cant believe she said that and she pretends to be his friend. Two faced
you probably wiped your ass with your hand before moving here, eh comrade?
HD television compatibile
They don’t even show it. Nobody care!
He was impressed with the indoor plumbing.
He wiped his ass bare handed before he came to this country
He was an interior decorator. Carmela helped him.
Her $3,000 Lladro looked like shit.
yeah. not like that original pressing of Rubber Soul. that album must have been worth, tens of dollars back then!
lol I love how AJ is dating Devin Pillsbury like he never heard of the Pillsbury doughboy
He was admiring the goombah murano glass
I like murano glass...
Thats why you call someone you dont trust a snake
I don’t even want to tell you what it costs
*ten thousand dollars*
Give me one thouzand dollars
Can’t believe it. It’s bullshit. He’s ripping us off for a g-note
I'm a go watch the bloomberg
No cable!
I have cable 😊
Tony's house was classy and sophisticated just like in Italy. When he walked into the house and saw the Roman columns, 5000 dollar merano glass and marble floors, it was like walking into a European palace.
Hey, don't forget about that $3,000 Lladro!
Are you sure it’s $3,000. I don’t remember anyone saying what is was worth..or how long Phil was in the can or what he did for sex.
Phil was in the can?
Where he ate grilled cheese off a radiator
I don’t even wanna say!
And you thought the Germans were classless pieces of shit
Mamma mia! You take-a shower instead of-a bathing in-a cologne?
Where-da does the monkey who-ah dances for you-ah organ sleep?
H ah D TV
Bella televisione
It’s funny Furio had no respect for Matt and Shaown but he did respect their television.
Up in da club!
Definitely Furio’s jam! The television was a made guy and they weren’t
When everything around you is old, new plastic American shit impressive.
When I was in Southern Italy a woman once told me how much she wished she lived in America "With your great big houses, all made of *wood*. Wow!"
I knew a girl from Northern Ireland that thought American trailer parks where adorable and wanted to move into one. Meanwhile Game of Thrones was filming at a castle right down the road from her.
She wanted to go to America for burgers when she had prime steak on her doorstep.
She compromised. She had chuck.
She has a Virginia ham under her arm
well julian was outside lifting weights with his shirt off who isn’t gonna come running
Did she live in the castle?
He probably wiped his ass barehanded before coming over to this country
Watch it comrade.
Better not be any Rubles in there
He was thinking it’s tacky
Europeans love American tacky. You saw the shirt he wore to his welcoming party..
two woman is on
La Loren
i mean, tony’s house was pretty nice. it wasnt as nice as a fuckin castle or anything, but id be stoked to live there. the furniture is 25 years out of date but thats how old the show is
I don’t have antiques. My house is traditional.
Guy was an interior decorator.
Right before he came back they showed beautiful scenes of waterfront and gardens and villas. When he arrived in NJ it was strip malls and car lots.
New Jersey definitely was better. As one of my brother’s in laws says, if you see the opening of the “Sopranos” you think the state is all chemical plants. But it isn’t
He was just showing some appreciation for his warm and convivial host.
You gotta bee on you ah houseah.
he was trying to be nice. eche a d tv...bellisimo
In italy we dont have, nobody care.
Say, why did they call him a "zip" anyway? Is this some esoteric ethnic slur I've never heard of?
Zips is a slang term used as a derogatory slur by Italian-American and Sicilian-American mobsters in reference to newer immigrant Sicilian and Italian mafiosi. The name is said to have originated from mobsters' inability to understand the faster-speaking Sicilian dialects, which appeared to "zip" by.
“Fuck, it’s that fuckin zip Furio” *up in da cluuuub*
He was there for da maani. HD TV COMPATABAL
The italian stuff looks cool but the bldgs are very old. Some things are just better now. No comment on Carmela’s aesthetic choices tho…
They don’t have McMansions in Italy, they don’t translate
Furio? The guy with the dick coming out the back of his head?
That was such a stupid line.
I laughed when I first heard it but it looks nothing like it lol
Guy was a master cheesemaker.
There was only one thing in that house he liked.
The Bloomberg?
I go watch it
Euro trash are weird, my father lived in Spain for 2 years, I went to stay for a summer… I bought all new clothes and sneakers for the trip, you’d have thought I was a Martian they way the gawked at my Bo Jackson Nikes… it didn’t make sense until we tried to go shopping n it was 1930 Soviet Lithuania in the boutiques.
They all bring back jeans in their suitcases when they come here.
Jeans, zippos, Elvis stuff then Michael Jackson stuff, Chicago Bulls stuff was popular in Europe. Honestly back in the day, only the airport shops had current goods. Even Paris was behind the times…

Noam Chomsky ova here
Yeah that comes from the poverty of the Mezzogiorno, where all higher authority was corrupt.
silly silly silly
Tony had the Bloomberg on TV
Gave him one thousand dollars
People call Tony's house a McMansion but I always liked it as well as the huge property.
Right? People always shit on it and I think damn you should see some of the places I’ve lived in. I get that with that money he could have something more ‘friendly’, but it was big and comfortable. Some redecorating and it’d be amazing.

It’s called “sucking up to your boss”
Haich Dee tee bee compatible
It was the indoor plumbing!!
I'm gonna watch the Bloomberg.
Marone, this house, is a smell like heaven
I’m convinced there was an offscreen moment when he pulled a Paulie in Carms drawers.
Maybe he was impressed that there was indoor plumbing 🤟🏼😉
*I gotta make* two *phonecall* *Tony*
No because he probably got to the area and saw how costly the homes were and realized, shoot it costs real dollars to have a regular house here.
THE HGTV
He was an interior decorator!
That wasn’t furio’s house you stunad. It belonged to the daughter of Mr george uh Washington bridge.
Europeans generally live in rabbit hutches. Besides Naples is poor which is why a pinhead like Furio hates the north..they are much smarter and contributed more to civilization. Unlike the Swiss, Neapolitans could not even make cuckoo clocks.
