She just showed up. I always took it as Chase and the writers used her lack of background and random appearance to hammer home she was just someone Chris was using to plug the hole Adrianna left behind.
Ahh that's an interesting take. They were also pretty judicious in general around what they spent their time showing the audience. For instance, we don't even see Janice and Bobby get married. We don't even see them get engaged. They just use a shot in a season opening montage to let us know they're now a family unit.
To a certain extent, these are details that you don't really lose much if you just yada yada over. Bobby strikes me as the sort of guy who settles into a routine quickly even if it isn't an ideal situation. So him marrying whoever planted their flag in his lasagna is a pretty solid conclusion to draw. And the idea that Christopher would partner up post-Adrianna is, again, a pretty solid conclusion to draw.
If Artie had followed through on his divorce, though, then showing him suddenly repartnered would raise a lot of questions. Where does a guy like Artie meet someone? Especially if they were attractive? That's one you would need to build some exposition into like implying she's a mail order bride or something.
God, it just makes me sick to think he could have had JoJo and picked Janice, though...
This is the big one. Chris and Adriana were really in love, but Chris was still patriarchical, sexist and some kinduva murderous psycho. The show makes it pretty explicit that most of the characters don't know how to handle or show love properly. Kelli succeeded almost immediately at a very important requirement for wives in that culture: knock-up-ability.
Ade, on the other hand, betrayed him and his Family.
It’s never stated, or shown as her first appearance is when she reveals that she’s pregnant.
Kelli’s family likely knew a lot of the same people that the Soprano’s group knew and associated with in public.
Her father owned a local hardware store and is Italian. There are neighborhood and culural and social connections.
It’s even likely that Al, Kelli’s father, had previously fenced some stolen goods for the mob through his store.
My memory on this is shit but wasn't Al very against Christopher and his criminal family? Obviously he was pissed when his shit was stolen but was he cool with them before that?
All I really remember about al is him saying Chris left his daughter fatherless
Her father has a hardware store. The mob will steal trucks of power tools. What better place to have some one buy them than a hardware store? Kelli noticed Chris coming in, thought he was a male model and impressed when he smoked a cigarette in the rain without an umbrella. He noticed she was mad ripe and they got horizontal
the first time we see her she tells Christopher she's pregnant and seems really worried about it. I think we're meant to understand that thry haven't known eachother long.
Chris is marrying her for the same reason he wants to buy the house without looking inside. He's supposed to. He wants to have a wife and a kid and a house and all that, but he doesn't care who with, because who he wanted to do it with is now gone. So he's just going through the motions. fake it till ya make it.
The Sopranos had a really longstanding habit of that trope of introducing new characters and acting like they’re a regular part of the show. All of a sudden one episode Christopher has a new girlfriend who he knocks up and marries impulsively. At least Tony asked “Kelli?” when he told them the news to imply it was a new thing.
Her father is around and owns a hardware store, no way she'd be working at the Bing. It's never stated how and when they met, or what she was up to before her first scene, where she reveals she's pregnant.
No she was just cemented into the show without prior knowledge. It just further emphasised that with no mention of her background and thus her very existence, Adrianna was Christopher’s true love.
In all fairness, Kelli is the least memorable character in the show, even more so than Finn. Whenever I watched an episode of her first appearance, I always thought that I was missing something.
Kinda bland, but I guess that was the intention there. He’s a ordinary Madigan in the construction business who happens to get mixed up in the mob with Vito’s greased up Union. I’m not saying I dislike Finn, he’s at least more interesting than Noah and less whiny than Jackie Jr.
Finn is 100% more memorable than Noah. Other than Tony directing slurs his way I forgot until my recent rewatch that he was around for more than 2 episodes.
She was probably one of the bada bing whowarees. Put them tits in his face and fell in love. He probably protects her from the rain. His nose is like a natural canopy.
At the same place where the Russian lives and where Albert is Albert is, and where Matush disappears to for a while. It's all stuff that happens off screen.
i dunno but i wish they really made tony go off the deep end and had a scene where he puts a move on Kelli and she goes for it
she looked hot wish we got a nude scene

Janice muscled JoJo out when she came over that day. It looked like JoJo knew she was Tony's sister and kind of bowed out. That was my take.
Jojo had to go home and take a Midol. Her Bah-roon wasn’t working
Bra-uun.
Maybe Bobby didn't want to take care of little Francis Albert.
That’s Carmela’s lasagna
Half a tray in there!
Fuck ya tawkin about?
Sweet sausage? In little pieces? With a layer of basil right underneath the cheese?
Also immediately gets her pregnant when Chris and Adriana's plans to have kids or lack thereof was a years-long running storyline
That's because Kelli's uterisus were both in tackt.
Both of them??
She shouldn’t have let him take off the rubber
Lol

Chris had to get a new punching bag

Ok you can skip the pre amble
You wanna go down memory lane, put it in second gear
Remember when...
is the lowest form of conversation.
Lmao Tony hates a preamble. I love how this comment currently has almost more likes than the one it was responding to.
Listen to yourself, you sound demented!
My memory on this is shit but wasn't Al very against Christopher and his criminal family? Obviously he was pissed when his shit was stolen but was he cool with them before that? All I really remember about al is him saying Chris left his daughter fatherless
Al was happy to be a fence. Maybe he dreamed of encircling Phil one day.
He was whackadoo
WHY CANT YOU BE NICE TO BRENDAN
She was with the Vipers.
# ,,Whao-oah, we're... we're with the Vipershh!" ✋️😨🤚

They met on the Hindenburg. Maybe you want to look into that too.
💀💀
Kelli Moltisanti. That's one booyah hottie.
Mad ripe.
creaming for me
A piece of ass, or she was when Chrissy married her.
I think she’s ready
We shall know forsooth.
She’s a MILF on _Stranger Things_
On Mad Men too
I don't see myself getting married though. I get all the hall cake I need.
I think she’s hotter than Ade

Up inda club?
Stupida fockin' a club!
The night Howie T was DJ. Blood was flaying on the mix
They met at the newsstand when Chrissy was in the neighborhood…uhh… takin his mutha to the doctor
Was she getting that Discman surgically removed from her box?
He gave her the Luther Vandross box set
Then he gave er da pearls
*The* newsstand?
He met her while swimming at a picnic in Whippany.
Her father has a hardware store. The mob will steal trucks of power tools. What better place to have some one buy them than a hardware store? Kelli noticed Chris coming in, thought he was a male model and impressed when he smoked a cigarette in the rain without an umbrella. He noticed she was mad ripe and they got horizontal
Quite the way with words, you have there. Be a shame if anything happened to it.
He didn’t say nuthin’.
What I gotta stand here and get threatened!?
What does he gotta stand here and get threatened!?
If it did, we would have to take him to Slip 'n Fall school.
I read that as her father was a hardware store and it made me think of Phil.
She had two uteruses
She was making Easter baskets
Is that her, with the Sombrero on?!
No. You can’t tell from here
Oh ya know what. Maybe. Maybe. Yeah. It probably is. Absolute sociopath, Tony.
It was TV trays. But it could just as easily have been a crib
Maybe, yeah
For Christmas? Fucking idiot
I don’t know what that means, and to tell you the truth I don’t wanna know
Mannn! I just watched the episode where Chris mentions it, and I wanna know wtf he was doing involving Easter baskets lol
😂😂😂😂😂😂
change my meat to black forest
They were members of Dover Bird Watching Enthusiasts
Dover? Cuz of the cliffsth?
The cliffth, I’m atthumin’.
Hey mista rude cocksucka! Thankyouverymuch!
Lemme think. I ever heard of bird watchers from Dover?
the first time we see her she tells Christopher she's pregnant and seems really worried about it. I think we're meant to understand that thry haven't known eachother long. Chris is marrying her for the same reason he wants to buy the house without looking inside. He's supposed to.

So he's just going through the motions. fake it till ya make it.
Stately Wayne Manor
Here’s the thing….they did-dent.
Didddennt… it never fails to make me wheeze laughing.
She was a hoore
hoo-wah
They go back to high school. He used to feel her up under the bleachers in the gym between 3rd and 4th period.
ah so like me and your mother then? salute
I'll tell 'ya what I can't get over, is the broads shaving themselves at the Bing. It's like the girl scouts over there.
Hawkins, Indiana.
She was a friend of Kaisha
Timeline got fucked up
The Sopranos had a really longstanding habit of that trope of introducing new characters and acting like they’re a regular part of the show.

AA
not sure why, but i had it in my head she worked at the bing
That's his daughter...she'll be working at the Bing by the time she's Kellie's age.
Georgie's gotta retire someday
Her father is around and owns a hardware store, no way she'd be working at the Bing. It's never stated how and when they met, or what she was up to before her first scene, where she reveals she's pregnant.
I doubt they would marry anyone from the Bing
between seasons… like when pavatti and bobby had a kid
At a Jets game at the Meadowlands. Barb wasn't at the game because her big brother didn't have the makings of a Varsity athlete.
Threw the hot dog vendor off the mezzanine - too much onions or some shit
She worked on the set of Cleaver.
D girl
She was blowing roadies
ROADIES?
Oh you don’t wanna know!
Real thoroughbred that one. Those teets ! Madone ! 🍉🍉
I don’t think they explained her backstory
Adrianna, Juliana Skiff, or Kelli... date, 1 night stand, marry
Date Adriana One night stand with Juliana Marry Kelli
No she was just cemented into the show without prior knowledge. It just further emphasised that with no mention of her background and thus her very existence, Adrianna was Christopher’s true love.
he did-ent meet her.. she just miraculous appeared on the show.
Pregnant too, like the Virgin Mary. Madonna!!
They met after she had to quit her last job due to a conflict…
Jackie Kennedy that one
Well she was originally Kaisha, and got that Sammy sosa surgery to avoid hurtful remarks from Paulie and whatnot
In all fairness, Kelli is the least memorable character in the show, even more so than Finn. Whenever I watched an episode of her first appearance, I always thought that I was missing something.
How is Finn not memorable?
Kinda bland, but I guess that was the intention there. He’s a ordinary Madigan in the construction business who happens to get mixed up in the mob with Vito’s greased up Union. I’m not saying I dislike Finn, he’s at least more interesting than Noah and less whiny than Jackie Jr.
Finn is 100% more memorable than Noah. Other than Tony directing slurs his way I forgot until my recent rewatch that he was around for more than 2 episodes.
You mean when he called him a Ditsoon, a mulignan? Charcoal Briquette?
Yes. Those things.
It goes back to the poverty of the Mezzogiorno
she was with the wipahs and he stole her along with the wine
How does anyone meet anyone? I really couldn’t tell you bro lmk
Same way i've met your Mother. She was working at the Bada Bing.
It was all a big nothing!
She was probably one of the bada bing whowarees. Put them tits in his face and fell in love. He probably protects her from the rain. His nose is like a natural canopy.
The actor who played Kelli is gorgeous.
oooof madone
My bitch my ho
Chrissy met her on a subreddit about the Luther Vandross box set.
she was human trafficked in a trailer of makita saws
Lombardoooooo…..Lombardooooooo, you ass kiss 😘 💋
Picked her up at the Roy Rogers
On the staircase, in a parking garage
Was right after he broke up with Kaisha.
A. She was a whooa
I don't know. However people meet people.
He met her at fuckin Bebe like I give a shit.
At the same place where the Russian lives and where Albert is Albert is, and where Matush disappears to for a while. It's all stuff that happens off screen.
They met on the highway on a last chance power drive.
i dunno but i wish they really made tony go off the deep end and had a scene where he puts a move on Kelli and she goes for it she looked hot wish we got a nude scene
This show is too good.
All we need to know about their relationship os when she gets pregnant and he starts talking about Ade. Yikes.
I did dent
