Happy 25th anniversary "The Sopranos" · 12:10am January 11th
Original Aire Date: January 10th, 1999
Amazing ain't it. This fo' real turned 25 today. This was that one show I knew mama didn't necessarily want me looking at, but me at almost 13 months old, didn't honestly care. Man this show was probably my first introduction to Italian-American culture and the "Mob/Mafia" subgenre of media. I was a toddler and yet understood better than my 3 year (at the time) older-than-me brother about a lot of stuff. Yet I had to ask him what a gun was and where Italy was on a map (yeah I knew what a map was at 1). I was deeply enamored with the show from the start and I still feel the ending was both ironic and iconic! Here's some videos involving perhaps the GREATEST Tv show in existence!:
Apparently I had a fascination with violence and blood from a very young age if THIS is any evidence (that and the ironic amount of horror movies, true crime shows and news I watched as a young one)! Cheers for 25 years!
That is all,
