Amidst all of the modern-day appreciation of the series, one thing has been largely forgotten: While 'The Sopranos' was on the air, there was always a significant backlash against the show.
Barry Sonnenfeld's 'Get Shorty', which arrived in theaters 25 years ago last month, was one of the most purely entertaining studio comedies of the 1990s.
Like few pop culture phenomena of another era, 'The Sopranos' is having a moment in 2019, in conjunction with its 20th anniversary.
Titled 'My Dinner With Alan: A Sopranos Session', the documentary is set to explore the workings of the beloved show from the perspective of critics and cast members.
The new podcast, titled 'Talking Sopranos', will be hosted by Bobby and Christopher themselves and will feature many of the show's writers, cast, and crew members.
Sure, there are reasons to be skeptical about the Sopranos revival. The flashback episodes of The Sopranos were never among the show’s better episodes, and the time period change alone indicates that however great it is, the movie won’t be the Sopranos that we remember. Even so, David Chase has been missed, and I can’t wait to see what he does with this project. Just don’t expect it to give you the Sopranos answers you never got from the show the first go-around.
