At some point, you have to realise that some people are never going to change and are going to continue making you feel a certain away until you cut them off and get some mental clarity for once.. but then you’re presented with a new set of problems but not as big as the ones before💁‍♂️

Crime and Punishment isn’t the great masterpiece it is made out to be, it slathers the plaster of religion at the end like some sort of magic sealant, whereas it is totally irrelevant to the moral questions raised. Typical Russian nonsense, finding salvation like an hallucination on a deathbed.

She tried to suggest he didn’t understand morality in terms of family duties. The writers made her the spider at the centre of her conceit.

The music choice at the end was beyond talent, it was genius.

Ultimately Carmela was just as bad as tony She may not killed anyone or ordered it But she knew. She absolutely knew exactly everything tony does and is willing to look away because of the luxury Shes diseased as him, and I genuinely believe that meadow is infected by the end

One of the best scenes in the series. Love an Old Skool Shrink (No sugarcoating etc).

Which season is this?

You ever look back on the series and notice that in all of Tony's therapy he never so much as even admits that he leads a detestable criminal lifestyle? Like forget about promising to change then not staying true to it or whatever - he cannot even cast judgement on his selfishness or unfairness in taking by force and cruelty. And even more staggeringly, Melfi never calls him out on his dedication to failing to do that! He wallows in self-pity and faux-laments his shortcomings as a son and this and that, but never once reflects on his persistent hostility to becoming an honest & hardworking man. Every while that Melfi brings him anywhere close to a guilt-trip ; he immediately deflects and lashes out back with some variant of "Well uh at least I'm not Jeffery Epstein!". Disciplinary Judgement is just what Tony is in dire need of, but precisely the virtue anathema to the putrid and saccharine precepts of new age psychiatry. Sopranos is a daunting didactic drama that masterfully pulls the pathology of post-modern liberal ethics apart at the seams, then plasters the pieces on full frontal display.

This is one of my favorite scenes in the show. The psychiatrist exposes Carmella for the hypocrite she really is and doesn’t buy her booh-ooh poor me attitude, absolute savage. Like Tony told Carmella in season 4, she knew the deal when she married him; she wanted the money, the house, the clothes, and the status. And despite all of the psychiatrist’s advice, she stayed.

That was BRUTAL...

One of the great scenes in serial drama. Perfection in writing, direction, acting. And it won Falco the Emmy.

Damn that blood money line brutal

"One thing you can never say...... is that you haven't been told." 💀

I like how Carmella seems most upset about Tony's cheating but Dr. Krakower tells her that's probably the least bad thing about him

So that's a Krakower?

This guy is a much better psychologist than Dr. Melfi.

what episode?

Edie Falco is a genius

Despite Phil being an evil horrible bastard in every way, I really understand him in this scene when he says "I compromised everything". Guy spent 20 years in the can while his peers were all living the high life, nearly half of his adult life. Never got his revenge for his brothers murder, etc. Obviously all of these things are his own fault one way or another, but I can understand what he's feeling, "compromising" everything, things never being the way he wants them. Compromise is necessary in life of course, but I don't want to be 66 years old thinking I compromised everything just to please others.

she wanted to hear boohoo thats so sad but this guy gave it to her like it is she acts like shes a gangster herself at times but wants to cry im just a victim and he said gtfoh

I'm here to celebrate what would've been Frank Vincent's 87th birthday (April 15, 2024). He loved his family more than grilled cheese on the radiator.....

It's amazing just how rancid the vibes to S6B are lol

This is a powerful scene that eviscerates the pathos of the characters... But let's not pretend the more banal forms of evil that fill the world - and this therapist's client list - aren't spared the same condemnation. There is no shortage of blood money, and its circulation causes no small amount of harm. Is a mob boss worse than a Nestle exec that enables slave plantations? Or a physician bribed into overprescribing opioids? What are broken legs next to a destroyed ocean, or a bulldozed village?

2:38 Butchie knew that 20 years speech was coming lol

and she never read crime and punishment

If it werent for Phils criminality i think hed have made a great school teacher😅

why did not he fix tha tmistake by changing his name back to leonardo?

one thing you could never say , That you never been told ! Sopranos writer was really on another level compared to nowdays writers .

Wonder how long a session with Tony & this therapist would've lasted?

"How's that going?" Brutal

"One thing you can never say is that you haven't been told." And that is the worst thing you can do to a professional victim: remove her plausible deniability. Saw it all the time in the USAF with incompetent officers and SNCOs.

Well to he named after a ballet dress and no longer after a man who invented a tank. I’d be pissed too

tardo thats my f*** legacy. This scene killed a bunch of people over trash and vitamins he needed to take. Had he compromised he wouldnt have made the wall of fame.

Phil was never about peace

3:19 Same thing tony said " My rotten putrid genes affected my kids soul , thats my gift to my son "

Butchie's one eye is looking at Phil, and the other at the Shah of Iran.

A genuinely good therapist. No bullshit. No excuses.

This guy is saying what the priest should've told her.

I hate Carmela SO much

This is the coldest scene in the whole show. He's tougher than the psychopaths we're watching.

After more than 35 years as a professional I can say that this is the first and only realistic depiction of a psychotherapy session I have ever seen in the movies, on television, or in any other dramatic form.

Dave would never do that. I know him personally

This is such a perfect scene

Phil waited too long to draw a line. That’s ultimately why he was killed.

TBH Philly is a good guy. He obviously cares about his family and background. Even though he is as brutal as Tony.

They disrespected a proud Italian heritage and named us after a shinebox.

Supposedly Ellis Island never butchard any names.

47 = 👶

Carmela was the worst of all. She was a hypocritical materialistic, narcissist who always acted high and mighty above everyone else, and yet acted innocent at the same time as she had no idea that her husband was a mobster, and what the deal was when she married him.

Best Scene Ever
