Examples of Shitty Writing in The Sopranos
- Thread starter Mick_Mickerson
- Start date
The craziest thing about SoA is that the creator, Kurt Sutter, allegedly played a major role in The Shield, which is one of the best TV dramas of all time. It's probably the closest thing to Sopranos tier TV I've ever seen. It has the greatest finale of any show I've ever seen. And it's like 20 years old. Can't recommend it enough.

Everybody Hurts was basically Tony acting like a completely different character because Imperioli didn’t understand the very show he worked on.
Not to mention that nose...ever notice how he’s the only guy who can smoke a cigarette while standing in the rain?

Maybe it's because he was such a dunce. I dunno. Rewatched clips of the robbery, him getting caught cheating on Meadow, him hanging out with Omar and then getting clipped by Vito... and he's just not that interesting in any scene he's in.

The final season of The Shield is amazing. No show has ever paid off everything better than they did.

Kid’s got some good points, I guess.
Good point. I haven't watched the sixth season in like, eight years. We can at least agree that everything was going to shit by the end of the series.

I hated all the storylines with Meadow. Like her stupid college shit.
I found every storyline with Meadow and AJ boring as hell on the first watch, but the writers are getting the last laugh because the show captures that era pretty well and millennials on twitter are watching it specifically for those parts
The show is getting a big resurgence based on millennials in quarantine relating to AJ and Meadow's bullshit
Yup. The pilot is incredible too. The Wire took me three or four tries to get into. I was hooked on The Shield from the first episode. It's impossible not to be with the way the first episode ends.
The original pilot of The Shield simply had the ending being Terry Crowley going undercover. And then in like episode five or six he would get shot. But no network would pick up the pilot unless it was action packed, meaning he had to die within the first episode. It ended up setting a way faster pace. The entire show was high pace because the first episode was so insane. They took the idea of killing the main character from HBO's OZ. Where OZ killed its main character Dino in the first episode and revealed the real main character was Beecher the wimpy lawyer.
Imagine in the pilot episode of Sopranos that Junior sends the two moolies to whack Tony how different the tone of the show would have been.
The waiter that Paulie and Christopher killed ... And he's like "don't worry they won't catch us, no one up there knows us" as if going to a different high school can get you out of a murder.
I gotta agree about Melfi and the rape thing being unrealistic.
I get that it was to show that she would use the fact that she didn't sick Tony on him as a way of making her feel morally superior and thus allow herself to continue to treat Tony even though she knows deep down it doesn't help, but let's be real. It wasn't years or even months after the fact that she was assaulted when Tony asked her if anything was wrong and I can't imagine an actual human woman not saying something to the one person who could make it all feel better and not get caught doing it.
She wouldn't have even had to say "I was raped, here's who did it, here's what you should do." She could have just said she was mugged and that they caught the guy and had to let him go and let whatever happen happen.
I will give credit for the little throwaway boyfriend Janice had. It was the one she told to eat his eggs. I've seen so many scrawny, pitiful looking dudes with great big ladies like that. I don't know why they're like that, but that one was spot on.

Her body was mad ripe.
Jackie Jr can have her though (she was creaming for him anyway). Give me thicc ass Caitlin. I like a woman you can grab onto something.

Hesh was the shylock
The original ending to Sopranos was Tony driving to visit Meadow in NYC and him dying in a 9/11 terrorist style attack in the tunnel. There were going to be a bunch of scenes of Tony driving to NYC through the tunnels leading up to it, a few made it into the show even, but the cut-to-black ending was chosen sometime during season four instead. It was meant to show that while the mafia was evil there was a whole new level of evil in America that the FBI needed to worry about.
So Tony would have died going to visit Meadow who was living in NYC after graduating from college.
I just don't like that the show portrays Italians.
