Soprano's highlights

For me there have been many. But the one that sticks with me as one of the greatest moments in television history, is the moment when Paulie steals the coffee trophy from the coffee shop, complaining that Italians invented coffee. That and the whole lost in the woods episode, and;

*Spoliers*

Christopher. He is such a great character, Him getting shot, him getting beaten for killing the dog when he had gotten away with just about everything else, him just being him really.

And Joe Pantalioni, the most odious character on television ever, the fight between him and Tony was brilliant horrific.

Is season five to be included here? Or should we be with the waiting?

If you've seen it, include it.

Just remembered another, can't remember who said it to whom, but the exchange goes something like this;

'Hey (enter male italian character name), do you remember your first blow job'

'Sure I do'

'did the guy come quickly'

classic.

'You blow your father with that mouth?'

Christopher's excuse for his lateness, right in front of Van Zandt, comes straight from The Boss:

"The highway was jammed with broken heroes on a last-chance power drive."

Also, later in that scene, for some reason his referring to Adrianna's ravaged gastrointestinal system as in need of a "semi colon" just cracked my shit up.

Christopher's intervention was classic. Hopefully, Flyboy will come by and post Silvio's lines from that scene, because he's got a better memory than me.

The Christopher as screenwriter storyline was probably my favorite thing on the show, particularly the episode where he's acting, and the Jon Favreau episode, where he just constantly insults Swingers. The best line was "You want to suck my dick, that swings too."

Also, the scene where Tony gets shot in the first season, with the orange juice bottle bursting open.
