This
site is about HBO's outstanding Emmy-winning series THE
SOPRANOS, created by David Chase. Tony Soprano and both
of his families--wife and kids, fellow wiseguys deal with balancing their work with their lives. The
early episodes include "The Sopranos" (series premiere);
"46 Long"; "Denial, Anger, Acceptance";
"Meadowlands"; "College"; "Pax
Soprana"; "Down Neck"; "Legend of
Tennessee Moltisanti"; "Boca"; "A Hit Is

The series stars James Gandolfini in a career-making

trouble dealing with his mother and family and so starts to
see a shrink. The terrific supporting cast features Edie
Falco as Tony's beleaguered wife, Carmela; Lorraine Bracco
as Tony's put-upon psychiatrist, Dr. Melfi; Michael
Imperioli as loose cannon Christopher Moltisanti; Steven Van
Zandt as Silvio, owner of the Bada-Bing; and the

controlling mother. The writing, directing, and acting are
impeccable, making for one of the most enjoyable viewing
events of the 1990s. |
