In Camelot was playing in the background earlier and it got me thinking about Fran's relationship with animals. The first thing we find out about her is she worked in the fur department; in the JFK story the fur she wears is a pivotal detail (if the story is to be believed); in pretty much every scene she's preparing some kind of meat to feed Tony and then Johnny in flashback; she has the dog put down seemingly out of inconvenience based on the reasoning she gives. Tony loves animals and Fran's treatment of them doesn't raise an eyebrow as the cruelty is never directly done by her, but she is the passive beneficiary of it in the procurement of fur, meat, etc. and she actually doesn't seem to care about any of the harm that goes into that, as evidenced by her smoking when Johnny had emphysema. As the episode goes on we see more confirmation that she's actually not a very nice person, but some of the red flags are there early on.Wiltsghost posted:gently caress me? gently caress you! A great "show don't tell" is AJ's cowed demeanor when being dropped off at the very beginning of this scene. With us not seeing the actual argument between him and Tony that would have taken place on the car ride over it's like, woah, you know that was a bad one.

Besides opening and closing credits songs, how many examples of non-diegetic music are in the series? At first I thought there weren't any but I realized there's actually quite a few. Tiny Tears, Through and Through, Dolphins, most of the episode Commendatori features some kind of music in the transitional scenes. The jingle bells in 'To Save Us All From Satan's Power' is probably the most noticeable and out of place sounding, though.

ulvir posted:oh, and the episode where FBI tries to wiretap their house, there’s a mix of Sting and Detective Music in a way that’s clearly non-diegetic Yes, that's what I'm looking for. The other instances of opening or closing songs I don't count (The detective music in question is the Peter Gunn theme; musically I thought it was a brilliant mash-up but the episode in retrospect is a big nothing, absolute bottom tier) Kevyn posted:I’d say that weird William S.

To me, it reeks of Janice and her self righteous horseshit but I have other suspects. Ojibwe (pronounced o-jib-way, not o-jib-wee like Christopher says it) It's so out of left field for anyone in the main cast that I think it'd have to be a nurse or an orderly who put it up

PostNouveau posted:I like the Kevin Finnerty stuff more with each rewatch. It's just fun watching James Gandolfini play someone so different (Edie Falco also sounds totally different in her phone conversations). Good stuff with all the hospital parts and confirming Carmela's frequent fears that she'll be immediately left out in the cold if something happens to Tony too. I think it was confirmed at some point that the voice is not Edie Falco, I think as a speaking only voice it didn't have to be credited? I also love the coma dream; Costa Mesa seems like a very nice, peaceful place.

Jerusalem posted:One of my absolutely favorite parts of The Test Dream is that when he calls Carmela on the phone after waking up, he just mentions that he had one of his "Coach Molinaro dreams" and she immediately, gently asks,"Were you unprepared as usual?" and it just serves as a perfect reminder of what he had with her that he threw away because he just refused to exhibit even the barest modicum of self control and not sleep around on her. I like this too, it's a nice world building detail that Tony actually does or has confided his dreams with Carmela (to what degree that is his expression of openness or vulnerability is left to us; I suppose it helps that she also knew the coach), and she demonstrates familiarity while Melfi expressly notes he's never brought it up to her.
