I wonder what percentage of the whole of the show's dialogue has been quoted verbatim in this thread. Maybe 15%?

Well since probably 3% of it is multiple people saying “Ohhhhhhh!!” maybe.

Nah you're not a rube at all. It's a tour de force of so many funny things everyone remembers about the show.

AJ punching the car window
AJ confusing Tony and Carmella with the philosophy
Fuckin Intahnet
The importance of fresh produce when you're married
Chris and Favreau
It's my fault I don't communicate my needs

That's off the top of my head. It's a top tier episode.

Absolutely. I think people tend to remember episodes as 'the one where one particular thing happens' but the AJ plot is some of the best family material in the series and ropes in the other characters really well. The scene where AJ gets sent to Livia and she eagerly confirms to her grandson that life is an empty void and we all die alone is an absolute classic

The Hollywood stuff in D-Girl (and the whole series) is a lot broader than usual but I do actually like the arc of Christopher seeming like a looming danger to the naive Amy and Favreau characters and he ends up getting chewed up for an authentic-sounding mob anecdote and spat out. It also vaguely recalls the actually-good B-plot of A Hit Is A Hit (the stuff with Tony briefly befriending Cusamano and his white collar set and getting burned) and I'm up for any time the show has Christopher relive a Tony plot

He maybe said it once, in passing, half under his breath and years before AJ so much as had his learner's permit. But that doesn't matter because he knows he told him that.

and ofcourse, the payoff for the whole Cuse-subplot is Tony creating a "mysterious package" to mess with him later on as a revenge

The fundamental question is, will I be as effective as a show-quoter like my dad was?

And I will be, even more so. But until I am, it's going to be hard to verify that I think I'll be more effective.

For years this part of their lyrics, on top of the meowing has cracked me up. It's like some 8th grader wrote the lyrics but its an actual band hoping to get a record label and be on the radio. David Chase is a genius

That's always a worry when I see my bookmarks for Sopranos, Wire, 30 Rock. If something gets 50 posts in a day it seems like someone died or got metoo'd, or both.
