Paulie: "You're not gonna believe this. He killed sixteen Czechoslovakians. Guy was an interior decorator." Christopher: "His house looked like shit."

[@blazeparabellum7325]

That was so funny

[@Keedeeg]

One of the funniest lines ever!

Classic David Chase dialogue! Love it!

“The package hit crissy with an implement” 😂 paulie is hilarious when he’s serious

[@darshin95]

IS THERE ANYWAY THE PACKAGE COULD OF SURVIVED!?

[@mrgmusicclass]

The funniest bits throughout the series are Paulie being completely sincere. 😂

"The guy was an interior decorator" Chrissy: "His house looked like shit." 😂😂😂

[@israelvalenzuela2635]

Patsy threatening Gloria is one of my favorite moments

[@portugahbk]

it's a really smart move on Tony's part....it takes away all the melodrama that she had imagined in her head....it won't be cinematic

[@arjanpelle]

Scared the shit out me

[@VladdyTT]

That little hop of anger Tony does when Paulie calls him and tells him they found a truck and he says “I don’t know what the fuck your talking about” is so funny. James was such a good actor. RIP

[@mattv.4089]

I’ve 100% done that hop before 😂😂😂

[@crozgs4474]

"it wont be cinematic" is one of the best lines ever said on television....

[@hectorfrausto9705]

I was waiting for Pine Barrens! Greatest episode ever

[@joshythehand2960]

It is.. and I've been out there.. it's a trip. There's a town in the middle of the Barron's where the folks are their own , odd. People. They even speak their own odd language. They consider themselves independent from the outside world.. like the amish.. cept they aren't religious and are semi modern. It's weird.

[@Aethelhald]

Everybody says Pine Barrens is the greatest episode but how could we know for sure? We'd have to put every episode on all at the same time and that's just not possible, not even with computers.

[@reboot3332]

Nah, Whitecaps is the best IMO. Edie Falco's performance in that episode is one of the greatest in TV history.

[@arickhoops]

Agreed. Best episode ever!!!

[@flarrfan]

Most overrated episode ever...It was a good change of pace in advance of the season finale, and it's great for developing further the Christopher-Paulie relationship, but best ever? I put it in the Top Ten, but closer to ten than to one...

[@gaylecarver1165]

BJ in the Pine Barrens episode: "I don't think this is going to go as planned." LMAO.

[@tidepride86]

For all the shots when Christopher and Paulie were sitting in the blue van, it was shot on a sound stage at Silver Cup Studios. They had to act like they were cold and their breath was added digitally. Never would be able to tell if they didn't say it on their Sopranos podcast.

[@tonygibson5171]

Love the pine barrens episode. “Mix it with the relish!”

[@jdog6620]

one of the best episodes of the entire series…. AND, the episode after was awesome too.!! damn, great series.🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@Wang_Monkey]

The forest episode is probably one of the funniest, it had me in tears 1st time round! Plus you see the cracks begin to appear in the ranks!

[@djendick]

Pine Barrens gets all the attention (rightfully so), but Amour Fou is an OUTSTANDING episode.

[@francisalbert1799]

One of the best episodes

[@philmakris8507]

I grew up in South Jersey the Pine Barrens is amazing. It's a true wilderness, basically a big sandy swamp filled with Cedar, Pine and Birch trees. We would go on camping trips down there in Boy Scouts and sixth grade school wilderness experience trips. Most of the rest of the country doesn't realize New Jersey has a wild wild frontier.

[@jokerjames5262]

I live in SJ and if you grew up in South Jersey than you already know this is NOT the real Pine Barrens! They actually filmed the episode in upstate NY👍

[@jersey2626]

Ya, that large hill in the back at 28:22 is a big giveaway.

[@jokerjames5262]

@@jersey2626 Yes, and the fact that there are no, well, pine trees!

[@philmakris8507]

@jokerjames5262 yeah, typical shoddy presentation by Briggs

[@ruprecht3360]

Tony and Ralph trying to pass the buck on each other about killing Jackie was hilarious

[@xxmediacowxx7919]

“He killed 16 Czechoslovakians. Guy was an interior decorator.” One of the greatest quotes.😂😂

[@Huero510]

His house look liked shiyt 😂lol

[@normie2716]

These two episodes back-to-back are among the best of the series, in my opinion. Pine Barrens is hilarious and continues the Tony/Gloria saga, and Amour Fou is one of the heaviest episodes of the series. Absolutely incredible television. Thoroughly enjoyed watching it again with you guys.

[@Ed9870]

The Sopranos is superb through and through, from the writing to the acting, to the casting. And its great to watch these episodes again with you. I enjoy your reactions.

[@Kalashnikovx89]

A little trivia as to why Tony and junior were laughing when Bobby came out dressed in the bright vest. The actor for Tony told Bobby to surprise him that day in the set as he was having a bad day. Bobby came out dressed like that with a dildo strapped to his waist that you don’t see in the shot. The laugh between Tony and uncle junior is legit and not part of the script.😂

[@gacaptain]

The original joke of that costume is that it had Bobby looking like Elmer Fudd. (People from our generation see that right away) And that had everyone cracking up. But something caused the director to have to keep shooting the scene over and over and it wasn’t funny anymore. That’s when the actor playing Bobby decided to use the “prop’ to keep things lively on the set.

[@Kalashnikovx89]

@@gacaptain I can actually see Bobby as Elmer Fudd too lol

[@ImmaWright]

Pretty accurate except he was carrying it,not wearing it 😂

[@crystalb8612]

Jackie Jr.'s father was Jackie Aprile, the boss who died of cancer in season 1. Jackie Jr.'s uncle Ritchie Aprile was the loose cannon who got out of prison in season 2. He was Janice's fiance who she shot to death after he punched her.

[@JcraftCharger]

@6:28 Aisa says "dang they cold!!" Little does she know that Paulie and Chrissy are about to almost actually freeze to death in the next couple scenes lol

[@gregsgoogle2947]

You guys have the best reactions because you both pay very close attention. You notice so many details & remember them too. Great job as always.

[@robertwinfree3197]

The snow was real. There was an unexpected snowfall just before they started filming so, rather than postpone, they just went with it.

[@Artofficial1986]

22:12 "This is not good for her therapy!" had me laughing my ass off

[@joemckim1183]

All they had to do is go pick up the money and leave, they totally created that entire situation and didn't even get to keep the money.

[@woahblackbettybamalam]

How did you not laugh at "Guy was an interior decorator"😂

[@Harkness78]

They don't know understand what, when Tony says "the interior ministry" even hints at. They don't comprehend the extreme difference between someone being an "interior decorator" and an "interior minister." So the joke is lost.

[@venetianlucifer]

BJ got it. "It's Tony's world." End of story.

[@vuyanijamamkele8319]

33:30 "Why would anybody hit YOU, of all people, with a side of beef?" has to be the best Dr. Melfi line.

[@AboveAverageGamer1]

YES! Got my lunch, got my 'dro, and a drink, ready to watch you witness "Pine Barrens", awesome episode and can't wait to see the reactions.

[@pauliep2020]

Really enjoy seeing you two react. I wish I could experience the Sopranos again for the first time. But honestly it gets better and better on rewatches picking up things you missed, themes and subtext, etc.

[@kevinouellette5316]

You two gotta look up why Tony was laughing so hard! It's a great true story. Great scene tho. You two are great. I've watched every episode at least 5 times but watching you guys watching it a first time is great. Keep up the great work!

[@paulymar5996]

These two episodes are incredible. Season 3 is also my favorite. Thanks for the reactions.

[@joeyacovelli5789]

Jackie Jr.'s father was Jackie Aprile, the boss in the 1st season, you're thinking of Richie who is Jackie Jr's uncle.

[@RaysTrains]

I was so focused on pine barrens I forgot how great the second ep was. Season 3 really is the best. Between Gloria and Jackie robbing the card game holy shit lol. I remember audibly gasping when Christopher and furio were in there

[@francisalbert1799]

This was Tony Sirico at his best lol. Mayonnaise on your chin = egg on your face

[@Ford-wt8rn]

I love how this show and Breaking Bad mixes crime drama with comedy so effectively. You two should watch The Wire next, its up there with both BB and Sopranos easily.

[@marquisdesade3025]

Always nice to see you two drop some Sopranos

[@badprotocol1105]

The Pine Barrens was such an amazing episode. One of the best.

[@Vile_412]

Nothing is better than the Pine Barrens episode... so damn funny

[@Artofficial1986]

One of the most beloved episodes. It was directed by Steve Buscemi who later appeared on the show as Tony's cousin.

[@sofiapoteranska9512]

Been waiting for this! Interior decorator😂😂

[@SurvivorBri]

The one thing sometimes gets forgotten is the episode following Pine Barrens is so freaking good. So much happened that impacts the future of the show.

[@kcthecat]

David Chase NEVER allowed actors to go off script, until the moment Gloria spit in Tony’s face. She did that on the fky and not even Tony knew it was coming! She literally spit in his face without his knowledge! He was pissed! But Chase loved it and kept it. It’s discussed in Talking Soprano’s Podcast with Chris, Bobby and special guest Gloria

[@igotnukes6011]

Bobby being dressed up in hunting gear was a surprise to the other actors. James Gandolfini didn't know he was going to be wearing that. That's why he was laughing so hard. It was actually a blooper that they kept in.

[@DeathMountainDragonaut]

Awesome video! And yes, he most definitely climbed that tree!

[@ChuckMound]

Pine Barrens in NJ are no joke. You can easily get lost there.

[@jlmain5777]

The episode that made The Pine Barrens famous. Also known as The Wharton State Forrest. Jersey stuff.

[@formansredforehead]

Something I thought about - pretty much all of Tony's mistresses (not women that he just slept with on a whim, but the women he actually spent time courting and building an extramarital relationship with) seem to favor Barbara. Petite, thin, dark hair, pale. I mean, even Dr. Melfi sort of fits in some of those categories. Soft spoken, intelligent, reserved. Intimately aware of the chaos, but not a perpetrator of it.

[@RonsaRRR]

54:50 - Richie was crazy. Not Jackie.

[@macjbe]

Pine Barrens. Perfection.

[@garrybaldy327]

Everyone thinks the overhead shot in the tree means the Russian climbed up there, but Steve Buscemi who directed it said it was just a stylistic choice. So, where the Russian ended up is anyone's guess. Pine Barrens - the best episode of the entire show 😂

[@ruprecht3360]

No shit 😮 didn't know he had anything to do with behind the camera, did he direct any more of them?

[@garrybaldy327]

​@@ruprecht3360Yes, but I can't remember which

[@michaelsmith8664]

"Unstable and impossible to please". She just described 85% of the women on this planet.😂🤣🤔

[@mrgmusicclass]

Its Jackie Jr's uncle Richie that was a loose cannon. Jackie Sr was smart and a respected leader. His brother Richie was the crazy one.

[@blazeparabellum7325]

Do you guys know there's a movie that came out 2 years ago? It's called the Many Saints of Newark.. a prequel to this series.

[@michaelmacias8]

When you said Jackie his father was a loose canon I believe you were refering to his uncle Richie.

[@bg7606]

Omg. I forgot how this one started. You don't want to get lost in the pines. My dad's family goes back to the late 1600s there. Big, mysterious, and the people didn't used to be real big on "outsiders"

[@zjbell700]

Great reaction guys! You know this series had many outstanding and memorable performances from it's guest stars. Be it a couple scenes or a few episodes every one was cast perfectly in my opinion. But Annabella Sciorra as Gloria was probably my favorite. No secret she's a great actress and was well respected in her career up to this point but to go toe to toe with James Gandolfini in this particular storyline was really something. Every time she was on screen I was on the edge of my couch.

[@missydehart6920]

[@ronrago2696]

Jacky Aprile was not a loose canon, You might be confusing him with Richie Aprile, Jackys brother. Actually Jacky ran a tight ship. Tony is taking over for Jacky since he died of cancer...

[@terryhughes7349]

Great reaction team. Pine Barrens is a fan favorite.

[@luciolamonica]

considered the highest-rated episode of the entire series, Pine Barrens is the first one of a few directed by Steve Buscemi! he will come back later as a character, but for the while he's the one who threw the steak at James Gandolfini's head.

[@joevaldez6457]

"Pine Barrens" is the episode most _Sopranos_ fans put at the top of their best of lists, but I'd forgotten that "Amour Fou" came right after. I love Annabella Sciorra and think she killed it as Gloria Trillo. I'd risk my marriage and maybe my life to buy a car from her. We definitely seek out partners who remind us of whatever we learned love was when we were children and "drama" sometimes gets learned to mean love. I enjoyed rewatching these two great episodes with you two.

[@jrchapman8515]

Keep the Sopranos coming it just gets better!

[@mr.patriotjol]
