Chrissy looking like the Shah of Iran
Lmaooo
I was literally thinking he would cast great as the shah of Iran but also the sopranos reference is amazing too
Lmao
Looks like hes done 20 years and wants to remind you everyday about it.
@@jghvms he looks old as shit but his voice is like a teenager
The sopranos is the greatest piece of art to ever hit television
And you know that's right!
where have you been my whole life? I fckn agree
Sharp as a cueball!
Sopranos
Breaking Bad
The Wire
The Holy Trinity
thats house of the dragon
Adriana: “cwistapha you killed my dog”
🤣🤣
no it's "killed my dwog"
Wait!? You did what!?
He musta crawled under there for warmth
“Thoug”
I’m 23 years old and watched sopranos a couple years ago. STILL watch clips of it on TH-cam to this day. Just love it. Lots of younger people my age talk about how much they love it as well. Show is timeless
I'm 21 watched it last year, I absolutely loved it
I’m 19 watched it this year, I loved it
im 1 and i watched it and i wuved it
Im 23 and I watched the show at least 15 times from season 1-6. and I still do it
Lots of younger people your age
He’s been in great movies and shows. Good on him for choosing great character work instead of garbage
He's a man who respects the art enough to not litter the world with subpar work
He was in some bull💩 movies look at babies daddies. There’s more but don’t need to prove the point further
He was my favorite character in “The Sopranos” but I’ll never forget his earlier work in “Goodfellas”, “Jungle Fever” and “Girl 6”. This man is an underrated legend!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥
He was a great character in basketball diaries don’t forget that
Also Law and Order, the SUV.
In clockers too as a dirty cop, quality actor
Lucifer as well
"how about you go fuawk yourself, tommy" - Spider
It was interesting to read how much influence The Sopranos had for Breaking Bad, like when Vince Gilligan met James Gandolfini. Him and Chris were always the scene stealers on that show
Don't forget about Janice
My favorite Sopranos influence on Breaking Bad is Juan Bolsas’ name, which roughly translates to Johnny Sack in English. Perfect Easter egg reference.
Woah I didn’t know that. Vince met Gandolfini??
@@richardfilanderer holy f didn’t knew that
Ww-we with the Vipers
This dude deserves so much love man!! I mean serious. This dude is real.
And now he turns out to be a Bigot.. Who knew
Not any more
@@vueport99 you cute.
@@vueport99thought he was a liberal?
I’m 24 years old, and I just finished The Sopranos for the very first time about an hour ago. I absolutely loved it, and most people seem to hate the ending, but I thought it was fantastic personally.
i think most people back in the day hated it because they watched in on tv and had to wait for the rerun to check if they hadnt missed something. its a great watch when you can rewind and replay
I'm 25 and finished it last month, old school shows are just so elite man, I should have watched it sooner
@gyanmehrotra353 right. I'm 30 n I just finished it. I was 2 young 2 watch it back then but I knew about the show. Yea ppl thought their tvs broke after the finale haha.
I'm 24 and I just finished it 30 mins ago
I just wish I had watched it sooner
Its crazy just how different Michael's voice is from Christopher's. James Gandolfini also had a very very different spoken voice frok Tony's. These guys were such pros.
This show came on when I was a senior in high school. This was back when you could not binge-watch every episode in one sitting. The FINAL episode people thought their TVs broke because (well if you know you know). The show is brilliant, a journey of characters, you are so invested, you will never forget it.
I was 21 when the show debuted.
@@Danimal77lets all shush our yaps then
I watched it all this year at 22. I was like, “why haven’t I watched this yet”.
My brother 26, started watching a few weeks ago, he said it was a culture shock to watch it.
RIP James Gondolfini. I’m sure he’s happy knowing a whole other generation is enjoying his work.
I was 21 when the show fired aired back in 1999.
Same! 22 and just finished watching it. What a refreshing show.
I was 20 when the Sopranos came out in '99. Seems like yesterday to me! Still such an incredible show to watch 👍
Christopher was an amazingly written character, its really worth to pay attention how he develops from the first season to the end of the show.
He became from my least liked character to maybe my favorite in the end, amazing show and writing.
Such a complex character development its crazy. This dude acted out probably one of the best characters ever in any production and acts like nothing.
He had a real arc whereas most of the other gangsters did not. One could argue he was the only one with an arc.
Weres my ark?
@@nicholaslu4069 How ironic
@@nicholaslu4069 Its not even and argument. Only Four characters have an arc. Chistopher and Melphi and the kids. Everyone else starts a socipathic, selfish POS, and ends that way.
He's so right, if you are a Sopranos nut like I am and have done numerous rewatches, you come away feeling something different every time you watch the ending. You do go back and forth like he says.
i cant even say your name
This man is like fine wine!!!! So damn handsome!
He should be a male model.
@@orlandoshaw9503 he would probably be a success, I think he is working on achieving a position of great wealth though?
@@orlandoshaw9503 😂
Shut up!!!!!!!
“It’s ok we’ll throw some music on, it’ll be fun”
“MUSIC?!” 😂😂😂😂
The ending scene in the last episode is absolute gold. "You probably don't even hear it when it happens" -Bobby
Bobby sure as hell heard it happen
Michael Imperioli is a wonderful storyteller. The bit about the hot tub was brilliant.
Have you seen the White Lotus? I was thinking about your story while I was watching that scene… How is wife is upstairs lol
Shut it!
loved him in This Fool. we need a season 2!
Well, it's only been out a few months so, it might be a while, but I sure hope there is a 2nd season.
A mention in this interview probably would have given it a little boost🙄
I think they've confirmed season 2!
Back in the day when the sopranos aired on Sunday nights at 9:00, everybody was home watching this. Before Netflix, streaming, etc you had to watch it live because everyone was watching it and talking about it Monday.
Yeah loved it. Now people are like have you seen The Dragon on the Picket Fence? I’m on season 8. Like wtf is this show
I'm 70 year's old, and started watching the Sopranos recently. I love it! Great acting, writing, directed. I'm going to buy the whole series. Thanks, John
Imperioli’s always so centered and grounded in interviews. I think he’s a big meditator… maybe I should give it a try 😅
He is a Buddhist, I believe.
he is like the exact opposite of Chrissy lmfao
he also wrote a good chunk of the show. great writers seem to be grounded in some way
I always watch the sopranos and then something comes along with like an interview with a cast member and I just want to start from episode 1 again. It’s one of the best pieces of art ever, the entire series
Tony sopranos is to Christopher Moltisanti like Batman is to Robin. Rest in peace Mr. Gandolfini.
Except Batman won't kill Robin.😆
@@xrandom7805 good point.
What a fantastic set of hair he’s got
Those Italian genes!!!
@@multihyphenate4 loll na most italians are bald
I absolutely LOVED the ending of Sopranos. It makes SO much sense as of the “why”.
The lead up to it, how tense it was. I am like Jimmy… I thought it was brilliant
Met Michael and Steve on their book tour. He didn’t talk to most of the people, just signed the books, and allowed everyone to take pictures. Steve on the other hand was very gracious and talked to all of us.
steve and michael are kind of opposite personalities from their characters: michael is shy but christopher is loud, steve is loud but bobby is shy
My favorite character from The Sopranos is Chrissy, unbelievable start to finish how much he changes and what he goes through.
FYI: The working title of Michael Imperoli's mystery project is called "Cleaver".
the kindest constipated owl of all the snowy forrests of the world

Sopranos not just a hit. It's also pure art. That's why its always be number 1!
@bruce-5926 Yessir
It’s up there for sure. Boardwalk Empire up there as well.
@@HouseCat19Season 1-4 of GoT, BB, BCS, Boardwalk Empire, Sopranos, Mad Men, The Wire, Sons Of Anarchy, (controversial, but I do think Peaky Blinders is also up here), etc
All of these are on my list of the best shows of all time, and I think all are the best at different categories, in terms of sheer writing alone and hilarity, I think the best is sopranos.
Just finished binge watching The Sopranos for the first time, I can't believe it took me so long to watch this. What a show!
My Dawg Michael Imperioli! Man Christopher was a G! I’ve heard about the Sopranos through out my life. And I finally watched all of the seasons of the Sopranos during the pandemic on Amazon Prime. GREAT show, GREAT storytelling, GREAT characters. And I can see why it is considered as One of the Greatest Shows of All Time!🐐💯
Those young kids actually turned me on to the Sopranos again 😄 I watched all the episodes when the last season aired for the first time. Now all of a sudden, the TH-cam shorts were full of Sopranos clips so I rewatched the show and it was still amazing!
When there was a blockbuster, I binged all the seasons. Totally hooked that I couldn't wait to get home from work to see the next episode. Late nights, many hours...
i was poor as fuck as a kid so we obviously didn't have HBO. I was also like 11 when the show debuted so there's no chance my parents would even let me watch it when it first aired lmfao
i started watching clips of the Sopranos thanks to TH-cam. I think next to The Wire, it is the greatest U.S. TV show ever made. Hands down.
@@skippythealien9627 have you actually watched it
@@adinhdstudios7397 i haven't finished the series, but i've seen the first couple seasons. It really was revolutionary for its time when you consider all the other garbage TV that was on during the late 90s early 2000s
I binge watch the Sopranos daily for years now. Hands down my favorite show.
The man has aged like fine 🍷
I love how he still looks and sounds the same. Aged like fine wine
Has aged well--legend from Sopranos and Goodfellas and love his voice...Didn't know about the Podcast
*_The pine barrens Episode is and will prob always be my all time favorite from the SOPRANOS! Watching that show is also a big trigger for me cuz I was going thru some personal shit and I wasn't in a good place in my life although life goes on..._*
Ya know I know that everyone loves that one but It wasn't one of my favorites. I like the earlier stuff. Love the one where junior becomes boss
One of the worst
He killed 16 Czechoslovakians and he was in interior decorator!
Jimmy Fallon: "So in all this time, you have never asked David what really happened?"
Michael Imperioli: "I Diden'ttttttttt."
Shut the hell up!
Haha I'm the dude with the tattoo Michael is talking about.
The sopranos is so wonderfully shot and the casting was just so good. Nothing will ever come close
I love this man so much. James would be so proud of him
He’s nothing like his Soprano’s character persona. He might look the part, but he’s quite intellectual and doesn’t have the heavy New York/Jersey dialect.
Only reason I’m watching The White Lotus season 2
I just watched all it this year and it’s definitely one of the best shows ever breaking bad ain’t got crap on sopranos
Breaking bad is a close second
@@shawnpiette5372 its good but nowhere close
Michael is such a cool guy. Next to Tony, he was my favorite character on The Sopranos.
The end was Tony being stuck in purgatory watching his death in front of his family over and over again. Take note of the clothing change when Tony approaches the door and suddenly is watching himself, while in completely different clothing and almost teleported to the table, and when the door opens and you hear the bell, that’s Tony looking over and being shot in the head.
Doesn't he just take off his jacket? It's not like a complete clothes change
If hell is watching your death over and over again then what’s the point of the black at the end of the show? This theory doesn’t make much sense because death is just black and nothingness
I just binge watched all 6 seasons for the first time in 2 weeks. Phenomenal show!!
How did it feel to watch something that people spent 7 years to make in 2 weeks? 😅
I can close my eyes and 1000% sure will recognize that voice
I just finished the series myself. I loved it all.
We, the audience, got whacked. We knew too much.
SOLD!
I really like that idea
"Hey Spider give us a couple steps"
I’m from a small village in Guang Zhou, after I’ve discovered this show, I have re-watched The Sopranos more than 20 times
We need to see Michael getting more roles .. under rated actor!
He needs his own series! I would love to see him in some kind of detective role, a la Twin Peaks or something like that
@@sappy9320 detroit homicide or detroit 187 or smthing. didn't last long. dece. sopranos... wow came out as a kid. loved it at 18 and 21. and 26 and 30. jeeeez.
@@N-xi2zh Sopranos is really the gift that keeps on giving huh. I can always watch it and find something new
I'm from New Jersey, 21yrs old. Literally live less than 20 minutes away from where the show takes place. It really hits close to home for me and has an insane nostalgic feeling like no other. Masterpiece.
I love this guy so much Such an amazing actor
Love The Sopranos, takes me back to my middle school years. He's so funny in the White Lotus too!
I love Michael Imperioli ❤️
The sopranos has been my favorite show since I was 13.
Ssssshhhhhhutup
One of the best acting performances in history by this man in the role of Christopher
Great actor, Michael is amazing as an actor and a podcaster. He was key in The Sopranos, which I agree that it is the greatest show in the history of television.
Track down the film Sweet Nothing . A wonderful film that the Critics loved.
He didnt play Kev i the sopranos you gob shiyte he played Chrissiey
It kind of messes with me that I remember seeing him in one or two movies as a teenager, and now he is a silver fox...
Your mama ever tell ya to shush, pardner?
пересматриваю The Sopranos каждую весну. это традиция. и каждый раз открываю новые грани сценария. спасибо создателям за такой невероятный кинопродукт.
Love him since Goodfellas
"Go fk yaself, tommy"
That canopee nose is do iconic
3:29
I find this bit funny. The implication is that with all three of them working together it’s obvious they’re writing another sopranos movie, but I have a good feeling the entire joke here is that it’s not gonna be related to the sopranos at all even though it may seem that way.
This guy is a fucking
amazing actor really underrated imho
If he just colors his hair black, he'll look like he did in Sopranos, amazing
Absolutely!
I met him once in Pittsburgh he’s a very nice guy
Brilliant actor he was my fave! The sopranos best show ever made!❤️
Im 25 just watched it, i love the sopranos so much
I'm 23 I finished it last week and yeah it's the best show I've ever seen and it's not even close, I never though The Sopranos would hold up this well especially after seeing Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul but The Sopranos is just a cut above the rest
never realized how sexy his voice is. also, he could give patrick dempsey a run for his money with that hair of his.
It's weird how these old shows and movies are getting like revived by us younger people. I feel like that just tells us the scripts were so much better back then
i think since there was not much to do, people gave it a shot during the quarantine, and it left them mind fucked how much it WRECKS all the bullshit on Disney+/netflix nowadays lol
The talking sopranos was hilarious with Michael taking jabs at Steve throughout the entirety. Reminds me of a best friend from high school. Very similar way to how we’d joke around
Definitely one of Fallon's better interviews. He didn't interrupt Imperioli and he asked appropriate questions. That "come to Sicily" bit was also pretty funny.
thank you, Michael, for your top class acting.
I've watched the Sopranos about 6 or 7 times completely
😭
I'm 35 and watched The Sopranos for the first time. My family watched it when it was originally on but they wouldn't let me because they said I was "too young"
His Character made me hate him, scream at him, and also feel sorry for him. Such a good writing. Sopranos is the best series ever. ❤
i'm 28 years old... i started wacthing the sopranos in june/2020, and i think i took only two months to wacht it all.. and yes, it's the best show ever. nothing came closer...
That nose is a natural canopy
Young Scottish guy here also who loved the show, my favourite series of all time hands down. 🏴🇺🇸🇮🇹
My favorite Christopher scene was when he went storming into the bing, so eager to tell everyone that Vito was a fanook….
When he was always talking about greasing the union who knew that's what he meant
@@bmbm1 he’s a real “ come from behind “ kinda guy
@@bmbm1 I love you, Johnny cakes
I'd like to cut off his pishadeel and feed it to him!
@@bmbm1 Ha Ha Ha Ha
rewatching The Sopranos is my favorite coping mechanism
Yes!
Mike is a great guy. Love the show I watch it again from time to time. Great Jimmy had him on.
He should do more mainstream work.
this dude is gold
Man, he is rocking that gray hair well.
The Sopranos is definitly the number one!
I just saw the The Sopranos this year, and i loved it.
Watching this interview with Michael Imperioli is like watching Christopher be free, peaceful and happy away from the life that killed him, something I wanted so much for him in the show but knew obviously it wasn't going to happen.
One of the best actor
I'm 16 and I watched it this year.
Now it's one of my fav shows.
Richie Aprile -- "that nose is like a natural canopy"
This is Hilarious 😭
It's a shame he was typecast - I suppose though, being typecast alonsode the greatest show to ever air is a major win.
When I saw the finale I was like what the heck??
I thought the cable went out!!
It was so weird!
After 17 years, We're still talking about The Sopranos....
1 of the All Time greatest shows on TV!
As a younger person who really loves the show, there's a couple of reason why a lot of us like it.
In a world where television and movies are becoming more and more censored and there are more restrictions on what can be said and shown, it's really refreshing to see a show like the Sopranos from a time where the only thing that mattered was the story that was told. It's a groundbreakingly gritty show that would NEVER be allowed today. Ralph killing Tracee is burned into my brain as one of the most disgusting and heinous things I've ever seen on my TV screen. And it's fucking amazing.
shocking moments like that are still broadcast on tv i think youre over estimating censorship
