Carmella thought she'd made something of herself by marrying Tony. She even gestured to Charmaine like she was some maid. Charmaine put her in her place by telling her she slept with Tony, and "it wasn't for her" aka she wouldn't have stayed with Tony even if he had asked, implying that Carmella's life as Tony Sopranos wife was beneath her. I loved it.
Artie might’ve been a buffoon but he won through the whole series, a genuine, gorgeous woman and an honest living being a chef which is a pretty creative profession.
You’re right but the tragedy of Artie is that he is almost always comparing his life to others. Particularly Tony and he doesn’t realize that all the glitz and glamor of Tony’s life is hollow and in the end will mean nothing, whereas Artie really does have it all. Like you said. Very good analysis
This is a bad interpretation 🤣 him and his wife had a terrible relationship, they were constantly fighting and resented each other. And Artie was one of the punching bags of the show. His restaurant got blown up by his best friend, Tony’s crew didn’t pay their tab, he got his ass licked multiple times, he was usually depressed, he tried to kill himself, and he was constantly taken advantage of.
@Jaime D 😂😂😂😂 Fucc no!! I can appreciate a nice set of chesticles as much as the next Guy but if there is a nagging bitch-on-wheels attached 2 em I'll pass My Friend
Kathryn Narducci (Charmaine's actress) lost her father in a mob related hit. Really interesting that her character mirrors her real life hostility to the mafia
Let me underline one thing: Charmaine was 130% right about being afraid of Artie entering into business with Tony. She saw Armagnac coming from a mile away.
Actually, Artie was one of the few people Tony looked out for like a real friend. Artie even pulled a gun on Tony with no consequences, and even smashed Tony in the face with food.
@@VAHOSS the show is very explicit from the first episode showing that Tony will have no trouble ruining the life of even his "real friends" to solve business problems or make money. He had no problems taking advantage of David Scatino. He took advantage of Artie plenty of times as well, both directly (proposing to open a shy business through Artie, hiring Furio, never paying his tab) or indirectly (through Benny Fazio criminal mastermind). Tony was a hypocrite.
Armagnac never had the makings of a varsity liqueur. In the end, Artie found himself at the precipice of an enormous crossroads in his efforts to introduce Armagnac to the American market -- a moral stagmire, if you will, the likes of which neither chef nor interior decorator could reconcile. Specifically, the histamines irrigated any chance Artie ever had to make any real scarole because of their connection to a Central European tragedy where 60 Czechoslovakians got killed; it was a total deh-buckle. Rumor has it that Uncle Philly Leotardo easily could have helped Artie avoid this and other alterations from expiring with a-couple-a-tree words of advice but (unbeknownst to most people) he was doing 20 years in prison for his "family" at the time. If only Artie had been less allegorical in expectations of self and kept his eye on the tiger, then he never would have had this albacore around his neck, felt ostra-fied or been so prostate with grief. Truth be told, he would have been better off if he'd invested his money in the Captain Teebs luxury hotel chain and squirreled the rest away safely and smartly in an in-vitro trust. That's where the real life-changing money would have been; the kind with which Artie could have procured for himself a domicile comparable to de Something's Chateau that outshone Ver-sales. Sadly now, Artie just cooks meals for a two-fer menu in the Novo Vesuvio kitchen, keeping his antidotes to himself while periodically sipping on martinas. Let's not forget, Quasimodo predicted all of this.
Carmela was always patronizing Charmaine and trying to make her feel inferior, but Char delivered the ultimate put down "I tried it and didn't like it."
The existential despair brought on by his lifestyle and inner turmoil slowly consumed his soul. By the end of the series, he was the black hole he thought his mother to be.
First season Tony, from what we know at least, had only killed one guy up that point, Willie Overall, when he made his bones. End of the series Tony had killed 7 more people. Including 2 close relatives and a friend.
@@MeelatchiDaibukti I think there is a Wikia that has the background information that was established as cannon in The Sopranos lore. ... I dare the Borko comment section to formulate a more nerdier sentence about The Sopranos.
Charmaine was the most grounded, reasonable, person on the show - I think DC wrote her that way as a reminder to the viewer to not glorify these people too much when watching the show. They are all assholes - some of them are bigger than the others.
Absolutely, they either attack in numbers, or with guns, they always need intimidation. Of course, just knowing that if you fight back, you get hit ten times worse, the threat of knowing they're an organized family, is always there.
Shinchan Yeah especially when she shot down that cruise in season 1, Artie might still have had his original restaurant if she had just gone along with it.
In A Bronx's Tale, Katherine Narducci's character seriously considered taking blood money, and her husband forbade her to take it. In the Sopranos, she's the one preventing Artie from taking Tony's tickets... Nice one Mr. Chase
She was actually tired of being like a servant and a lesser individual, that hand waving by Carmela was the last straw. Remember they were both old friends and of a similar nature, the only difference is one chose to marry a crime boss and as a result was surrounded by affluence while the other choose not to.
" Borko... I never wanted to tell you this .. it happened so long ago. Your channel wasn't even legit yet... you was down in Belgrade wit your parents that summer, & on the outs with HBO's copyright department; They called me. We watched some of your videos and 1 thing lead to anotha. Borko I slept wit dem. "
She straight up told Carmella that she had a choice to roll with being a mob wife and she turned it down because she knows blood money is cursed and the lifestyle is an illusion. Artie had a perfect wife with more balls than him. I could easily see Charmaine busting knee caps if anyone hurt Artie or their children. She was a lioness and even mobsters kept their distance.
Charmaine despised Artie. Being a beta male she was disgusted by him. She would protect her kids yes (most mothers would) - but she’s enjoy seeing something bad happen to her husband.
What is funny is when Tony and Artie were eating in a restaurant: "Get the license plate of these two guys sitting behind Artie.....look like cops." Not sure if that was before or after this episode.
Love me some Charmaine. She didn't take a bit of shit from the mob guys and still gave it back to them leaving them disturbed and befuddled, if not outright ruining their night as with the FBI joke. At the same time checking Artie's regular self-BSing and rationalizing. All while being smoking milfy hot.
Charmaine was the only woman in the whole show Tony could not manipulate, even Melfi somewhat fell in love with Tony but Charmaine had no affection at all.
6:32. Charmaine was the only person of either gender with the guts to stand up to Tony. Respect. This scene is even better because the next scene is Jackie Junior getting a lap dance then an ass beating 😂
@@conzmoleman I wasn’t even thinking of Melfi because she’s always in that safe(r) environment with Tony. I was thinking more of those who Tony didn’t have to show some respect to. But I see your point and reasoning.
Charmaine was smart and realistic. Artie was so lucky to have her and he was so damn gullible, got manipulated by Tony and that French guy out of 50 g.
Nicely drawn character dynamics. Artie is submissive to Tony because of his money and power. But Charmaine has it over both carmella and tony because she likely could have had Tony but blew him off. And shes the only character who is confident enough to spoof the Mobsters a la the FBI joke.
After a friendly meeting with HBO at Borko's Residence: Borko's Spouse: You, are a hypocrite, that's what you are! You vilify a huge television network, bootleg its video clips behind its back and smile in its face... (twirls sarcastically) Borko: Something's gotta keep the Sopranos Fans coming back, and it's not gonna be whatever it is that you do on TH-cam lately!
Carmela really thought she did something when she made a dig at Charmaine and Artie’s financial situation but Charmaine gave the most devastating ultimate blow
0:05 I love how with the very first shot of Charmaine, they establish the dynamic of her being weary of Artie's affiliation with the mob. Her expression alone speaks volumes.
The actress who portrays Charmaine also portrayed Calogero's mom from A Bronx Tale. Her character in that film was open minded regarding accepting mob money and here on The Sopranos is another example of actors playing somewhat of an inversion of previous great performances.
The funniest thing about Artie is that 3 different times in the series he lusted after his young attractive hostesses while having a knockout of a wife at home. You hit the lottery and still want to fumble.
It's all about perspective. He's around guys banging anything that moves 24/7, no wonder he's thinking about other women. But remember when Tony offers him one of the bing girls? He refuses without even thinking about it.
that last frame where sil starts chugging his drink made my day :D when I first watched the sopranos I didn't even realize how tremendously funny the show was; THANK YOU BORKO!
Char basically told Carmela I could of had your life but it wasn't for me the reason she did that was because she made her feel like Charmaine was beneath her so Charmaine gave her a reality check good move lol
Nah Charmaine was so wack for that. She wasn't at that event as a friend, she was there as a contracted employee then gets upset that she's being given direction by her boss. Her ego was very frail. Carmela (while ignorant) wasn't going out of her way to degrade Charmaine. Tony sleeping with her once when they were young doesn't automatically mean he would have married her and she could have had Carmela's life. It isn't even the last time Charmaine threw thinly veiled insults to make Carmela feel like shit. As much as she liked to sit on her moral high horse she was ultimately displaying insecurity.
Carm is the biggest hypocrite on the. Her moral scale conveniently tips in the direction that suits her. She loves the wealth, yet pretends that she doesn't know who Tony is. Props to Charmaine.

Which means Edie did her job, yes
My ex said "I'd chop off her hand right then and there" with some serious venom while we were watching it together.
Charmaine loves it when you rub her muzzle.
The way Tony just walks up and says "Get the fuck outta here!" With no explanation cracks me up
I got so much respect for charmine..her moral grounds are high
The Prince of Rogaine will always accept a gift from a labor leader.
Charmaine: Queen of shade.
With all the frowning Silvio does, his cheek muscles could probably bend steel 😂
They gave the honest guy the Hottest wife
I swear if it wasnt for charmain bucco, Arthur would have ended up like dave scatino or worse
Kathrine Narducci is such a beautiful woman. Just absolutely stunning :)
“It wasn’t for me” killed Carmella’s whole life 😂😂😂
5:45 lmfao one of the funniest parts in the show
Charmaine basically tells Carm I could have had your life if I wanted it is priceless.
The actress who portrays Charmaine also portrayed Calogero's mom from A Bronx Tale. Her character in that film was open minded regarding accepting mob money and here on The Sopranos is another example of actors playing somewhat of an inversion of previous great performances.
I like the word you used, this _”inversion.”_
_”The sacred and the propane.”_
@@willia3r it’s very allegorical
And the adult Calogero was played by Lillo Brancato who payed Bevilaqua on the show until he was blown away by Tony and Big Pussy
There were more parts on this!!!
*You're only as good as your envelope!*
Everybody knows that Borko!
Charmaine's chest even gets more respect than Chrissy
She is so beautiful. Gorgeous complexion.
Carmela: Wise, principled, and still manages to deliver one of the most effective assassinations in the series lol
Kathryn Narducci is just a gorgeous woman
2:36 I call my dog over in a more respectful fashion
The funniest thing about Artie is that 3 different times in the series he lusted after his young attractive hostesses while having a knockout of a wife at home. You hit the lottery and still want to fumble.
Men are greedy they always More.
Simp
It's never enough"
It's all about perspective. He's around guys banging anything that moves 24/7, no wonder he's thinking about other women. But remember when Tony offers him one of the bing girls? He refuses without even thinking about it.
Carmela was shut the hell up. Speechless.
that last frame where sil starts chugging his drink made my day :D when I first watched the sopranos I didn't even realize how tremendously funny the show was; THANK YOU BORKO!
Loved Charmaine. Perhaps the only character in the whole show with an upright moral compass. She couldn't stand Tony and his crew and rightfully so.
But Her hands were still dirty She let Tony drop tht Mafioso TIP and She acts like buddah wldnt melt in Her mouth
Miserable bitch. But that T n' A!
She never compromised her shinebox.
Come on Arthuh, someone donated their kneecaps for those tickets!
Charmaine is stunning
Borko is a LABOR leader!
the no borko-jobs
We both made our borkos, I'm fine with mine.
Char basically told Carmela I could of had your life but it wasn't for me the reason she did that was because she made her feel like Charmaine was beneath her so Charmaine gave her a reality check good move lol
Nah Charmaine was so wack for that. She wasn't at that event as a friend, she was there as a contracted employee then gets upset that she's being given direction by her boss. Her ego was very frail. Carmela (while ignorant) wasn't going out of her way to degrade Charmaine. Tony sleeping with her once when they were young doesn't automatically mean he would have married her and she could have had Carmela's life. It isn't even the last time Charmaine threw thinly veiled insults to make Carmela feel like shit. As much as she liked to sit on her moral high horse she was ultimately displaying insecurity.
Carmella staring at charmange from 4:20 - 4:25 lmfao she's like stuck in shocked mode lol
Katherine Narducci is so beautiful, and has the most gorgeous eyes!!
Carm is the biggest hypocrite on the. Her moral scale conveniently tips in the direction that suits her. She loves the wealth, yet pretends that she doesn't know who Tony is. Props to Charmaine.
Katherine Narducci is absolutely stunning
