Your Gay Uncle posted:One of the best scenes in the whole series is when Melfi sends Carmela to her old psychology professor and he just lays out in no uncertain terms that if she doesn't take her children and leave Tony immediately that she was complicit in all his crimes and the blood money she has will destroy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bzVeLjj6Ao8 "Take only the children - what's left of them- and go!"

He instantly recontexualizes the new information so that the image of his father isn't completely shattered.

Generation Kill is amazing, it's supposed to be one of the more realistic portrayals of the US military but don't quote me on that. It's definitely worth giving a shot! His newest show, The Deuce, is also very worth it.
