You can see how Bobby Bacala went from being totally disrespected as in this scene to third in line behind Silvio. Bobby was a goodfella. Not a drug addict (Christopher). Not a rat (Pussy). Not a loudmouth (Ralphie). Just a good family man who did what he was told to do. A criminal, of course, but he was the most standup guy in a family full of sociopaths.

We get to see Sil smack around Tracee. And he kills Ade

What I really liked about Baccala was that, even in his very first appearance, he knew how to respectfully but firmly "talk back" to Tony. Here he does it by telling him Tony has no business talking to him like trash; when he gets promoted at the start of Season 4, he tells Tony right to his face that Tony should have made the decision to promote him way earlier. Not to mention he pummeled Tony's ass after warning Tony to watch himself. Face it - for how awkward and bumbling he started out, Baccala became one of the coolest Sopranos characters.

this is another example of the great depth of this show. The evolution of Bobby from a bumbling rival that Tony didn't even take seriously and dismissed as a glorified errand boy for Uncle June, to being Tony's top confidant. And not just overnight or unexplained between seasons, but over time and small, gradual changes. Which is one of the reasons I think Bobby was probably one of the most well-liked characters. The realism of the transition even more so than his likable personality.

Throughout the series Bobby always showed balls when it came to dealing with Tony. He never let Tony intimidate him. Paulie, Silvio, Patsy, Pussy, etc. Tony bullied all those guys, Bobby was the only guy who consistently (but respectfully) pushed back and held his ground with him. I think when you think about it, they were both kind of like Uncle Jun's adopted sons, so maybe that is where the familiarity comes from and that is probably why they became so close after a while.

[@KretinoSantino]

I Bramblebush Heroin is bad for you. You've must been passed out during all seasons. Booby was Pinata to everyone. Only time he stood up against someone was the fight with Tony. Because he was "family guy". Bobby was a likeable character in Sopranos because he was never nasty and he always did back up. You must be really stupid if you deduced total opposite of what Bobby was in Sopranos.

The thing with Bobby is that he's stable. And by the standards of the mafia, he's *relatively* uncorrupted by his line of work (he has actually never whacked someone at the start of the show despite the fact that his own father was known to be a legendarily-proficient hit man). Aside from gluttony, Bobby doesn't really have any of the vices we see the other mobsters demonstrate. He's a loving and devoted husband to his wife and father to his children. He's unique among his fellow mobsters by not taking a mistress. And he doesn't really have the same degree of personal problems that cause the downfall of others. He's not entitled like Feech La Manna or Richie Aprile. And he doesn't have the kinds of insecurities that bring others down such as Christopher's perpetual inferiority complex. Bobby is probably one of the most sincerely tragic characters on the show. He starts off as a happy, successful family man. He has a close relationship with his loving wife and children. And slowly but surely he loses everything.

I love the progression in the relationship of Tony and Bobby. Early on, Tony doesn't respect him, he mocks him alot and doesn't give two fucks about his opinion. He treats him as a beat opponent for being with Junior. But as the show goes along, Tony loses confidence in almost everyone else in his crew, but he respects Bobby and spends time with him and his family, something he never did with his other crew members. By the end, Bobby and Sil are the only two Tony can really rely on and that's why they get popped in the war. Without them, Tony's leadership is tenuous at best

@@rohunsaigal2576 I think it's more than that. Bobby does what he's told. Most mobsters would feel belittled if they were tasked with being a nurse to Junior, but Bobby takes it as a learning opportunity. When he asks to do more collections / jobs for the family he says it's not about the money but because he wants to do more for the family, showed initiative and being able to be a go-getter When it's time to make his bones he gets it done even though it rips his soul apart When his opinion is asked its valuable and thought out, when it's not asked, he shuts up.

Little detail: at the end of the show, Bobby ( not thin at all ) is probably a little less fat than Tony.

without a doubt, Bobby was 265 or so he said at the end of the show, one scene with Tony on the scale said 280

Clearly Tony gets progressively more obese throughout the series, but I feel like Bobby also lost a modest amount of weight. Their obesity arcs were definitely inversely related.
