If this gets taken down, I want it known - it's on me, I take full responsibility, but I didn't do nothin'
Wit all do respect of course.

all they do is slap commercials on it and take any profit the guy might have been getting
In light of recent humiliations, it is an honor to be joined by Borko.

Phil has a dark sense of humor. He comes out of the closet when Vito is about to get whacked.
20 years in the can... was very out spoken about Vito been gay coulda been hiding something
@@ivartheboneless767 same thing with ritchie. very weird how he described that lou guy from prison. lmao
You get a pass for that. But, like Melfi said... "Well that's nice". So you can ram a guy in the ass in prison but outside of that... Lol. Tony was pissed too. His stay wasn't long so he didn't have a need for that.
Irony is that he is killing him cuz he come out of closet
I never even noticed that metaphor, nice
I love how it's Butch who gives the eye for an eye comment
Why is that?
@@biggusdickus1689 good one
@ Not joking the reference legitimately escapes me.
@ What one?
🤣🤣🤣🤣
When you get made, your hair turns black, oiled and slick automatically
kshitij srivastava yeah he had red long hair then out of nowhere it was black.
quasimodo predicted all a this
@@Tommy88- frankly, I didn’t even realize that it was the same guy, during my first time watching.
@@Snarkythecat He didn’t look right for the role in my opinion.
I guess I came out the womb made
If Gerry is the Hairdo, then Sil is the Hairdont
🤣🤣🤣This comment has the makings of a varsity athlete!
Y'hear what I said Ton'? hehehe
Sil's hair resembled a black-plastic moulding.
Sil's hair begins in the Movie Saints of Newark 😅😅
@@None-zc5vg Sil's character wore a wig... As did Ralph aka Joey Pants
So Gerry died his hair blonde. I always thought it was two different characters.
Dude right?? The later seasons had so many random goons pop up out of nowhere, I figured he was just another one.
@@DuncanUdaho67 For real, I had no idea who any of them were until i watched a 2nd time
@@husaammaawia3057 me too
One guy, two hairdos
Yeah, they really screwed up this power struggle in New York in the end. Too bad.
A short career for sure but Gerry was present for some of the all time classic quotes. Quality over quantity!
@Marshall Carwood Eligh was warned
@@James_Price79Eligh ..yeah what ever happened there.
Very allegorical
Possibly, plot wise, the obvious resemblance to his late brother Billy played a role with Phil's fondness for him.
The man was my Mento... 😢
I love the way Christopher always mentions to Tony about caving to Phil, and Butch always mentions to Phil about endulging Tony.
It was an arrangement of mutual compromise.
I love how Philly kept his cool in the opening scene, a true leader of the Gary Cooper type
"He was gay, Gary Cooper?"
@@notrekvlt4431 nooooooo
@@notrekvlt4431 NOBODYS GOT AIDS!
I could care less, basically
Even Gary Cooper knew to keep his mouth shut on an empty stomach
I know the “I wish they’d have done more with his character” is a crap joke, but I honestly do wish they’d have developed Torciano’s character more.
Just say it then... Walt fucking Whitman ova here...
i never even knew he was a character till this borko clip
Avengerie it’s a metaphor...
Avengerie you know the wine makes you emotional...
How about that girl you were out with though, S T? The sideburns?
The vitamin truck, whadd evah happened dere.

“John’s folding laundry in Danbury”
Phil had the best one liners. RIP.
and eating cheese of the radiator
Yet there were no scraps in his scrapbook. 😮
Danbury only housed female inmates from 1993-2014. I’m unsure when the Sopranos was set.
@@straycatttt2766 Current era. Good catch! I wonder if Chase and the writers missed that.
@@straycatttt2766he probably said Danbury because of the whole “to cry like a woman is a fucking disgrace” comment
You would think that Uncle Philly of all people would say something about The Hairdo changing his hair color, but he didn't.
20 years together, and not a fuckin' peep
That's very true... A grown man changing his hair color? Probably woke up early to maintain that hair. At least Vito was that way because of the medication!
@@PLsexpicklePL But even the Cinderella didn't dye her hair...
Fuckin Paul Mitchell over here.
@@bennylevine387 hahaha
Shah of Iran LMAO that part always made me laugh
I wonder what the story is behind that line. Maybe the actor heard it a lot privately and they decided to throw it in there.
Lately ??
Ill be honest, i didn't even know they were the same character
“Samir!” (Pronounced “same here”)
I thought two different guys. Oh... why didn’t this clip show the Hesh beating and later talk re: compensation
Gerry was too handsome for that life anyway.
Too handsome for the can too
@@faisalkamal4319 speaking of the can, did you hear about Phil?
@@vastpiano5552I heard about Richie, 10 years in the can , he could be a great asset to Tony if he got treated fairly, natural born killer , oldschool, both he and Ralphie , who was more white collar crime but equally fearless, family would be much tougher if Tony didn't treat them like shit.
They treated their boss with disrespect. Ritchie comes out of prison and immediately starts stepping on toes. Dealing coke at Tony’s legitimate sanitation business and Ralph killed an innocent civilian at one of their legitimate businesses in front of tons of witnesses. That all brings heat from law enforcement towards Tony’s way. I’d say they were disrespecting the boss more than the boss was disrespecting his soldiers.
Oh yeah? Maybe you're a Flambé
Doc Santoro, a character who we knew wouldn’t last long. Gerry, so skilled with metaphors yet oblivious to dangers of eating dinner in public
LMAO.
And with his back to the entrance
Walt Whitman over here.
20 years eating cheese from the radiator, for what, to protect the likes of Doc Santoro?
And then to add insult to injury he eats his food. Phil was very hungry.
"Hooooooo young and tall and tanned and lovely"
- Doc Santoro
The girl from Ipanema by Frank Sinatra. Im not sure what the hell that scene was about. Was he trying to slyly insult phil? Calling him a woman?
@@irieite9666 if those lyrics were about a girl lol than must of been
@@irieite9666 i think yes. It was clear that Phil was very insecure about his own masculinity. So it's probably a kind of psychological warfare.
No videos tomorrow
Oh yeah? Maybe your a flambé
You need to take some rest borko. You're too implicated in your work.
Can't really call it Good Friday then
Again, with the no videos? :) Seriously, Borko, you spoil us. Sopranos ended 13yrs. Ago, but lives on forever here. Best channel on YT. Thank you, for all you do. Happy holidays.
So that's it Borko, no leeway, no compromise just stupid fucking assertions...
Guy's nickname is "The Hairdo". Show then changes his hairdo without any explanation whatsoever.
Without any provocation whatsoever!
I gotta tell ya don borko, you look fantastic. My favorite turd.
Your ears still ringing sil? I think you missed a spot of Gerry's blood on your face.
@@munky123jw Sure we break some balls here tonight, but I go way back
Borko skipped over his own uncle to upload this video. His father’s, brother.
please ah
Gerry was Uncle Philly's Mikey Palmice
True but Gerry was more level headed than Mikey was
Mikey was funny as hell

'The Family of Early Man' is one of my favorite Tony Soprano quotes.
I don't get what it means

@Steve Turowski no it's not that at all it's saying they're evolutionarily behind modern humans lol
I dont think that even Tony knew what it meant.
@@Leonardo-xz9xl Probably meant they were in the 21st century as mobsters and taking photos like celebrities as if they didn't learn the lesson from being in the press like Gotti
I love the little detail of Phil coming out the closet when confronting Vito
@Daniel Treadwell lol you beat me to it.
@Daniel Treadwell
Whoa sounds like fucking slander to me
But he compromised, he jacked off into a tissue.
Tommy Brill but I heard there was no compromise , just stupid fucking jokes
@Jax Teller ohh twenty years in the can kids got a right for his details to be little
First time I've noticed the significance of Gerry talking to Sil about Phil heart giving in once he got the chance to be boss. Sil also experienced health problems when he was acting boss.
Jerry was made and literally 3 months later almost became boss
That’s so bs writing, no way a non Captain or non underboss would be boss.
@@mitchjames9350yeah makes no sense, would had been better if he was being made a capo here then him almost taking the top spot would had had made a little more sense, just a little though. Torciano would be pretty young to be made a capo but if he was an exceptional soldier the fast track could be possible.
What I was gonna say
In light of recent Humiliations... Then to make a statement. Uncle Philly comes out of the closet to confront the parade Float
Edgar Santos you threw food at Vito..
20 years in the can... You get a pass for that.
@@stanniscapo7205 That's gotta be resolved!
Uncle Philly my ass
The pool cue......whatever happened there.
"You know the wine makes you emotional" remains one of my favorite lines on the show. Up there with Furio's: "Stupid-a facking game."
“You know that fat cocksucker says I look like the Shah of Iran?” another hilarious line
If you thought HBO could stop him, then you don't know Borko
"The hairdo? He's in a beef with the jew."
What? God damn it. WHAT!?
@@EazyMothafuckingE don't yell at my brother in law john
“The jews son-in-law, it got physical. Your friend from Jersey got involved but he can’t get Phil to focus”
Phils hard left turn during his speech will never not be hilarious.
Who do you think hosed down Gerry? I've narrowed my guesses down to either the Asian dude from Miami, Lou DiMaggio's grandson or the one of the two unidentified black males that was clearly the least black.
whitey 604 it was Mikey Palmice or criminal mastermind Benny faziano..
don't rule out Meadow's roomate, Caitlin.
It was Artie bucco, payback for not eating at his place
It was clearly Teddy Spirodakis
If you pause it at 6:58 you can see its the Asian guy from Miami or some other Pollack
Phil was actually a extremely reasonable guy until that… I can’t even say his name… Animal Blundetto
7:01 Gerry looked like a puppet on strings 😂😂😂
I'm glad you caught that, very observant!
Dusty Springfielded.
He gets the award for best body movement when getting whacked.
@@Agent1W the sacred and the propane
I can't unsee it now
When you see mobsters walking around Home Depot, you know some shit’s about to go down.
Fuckin Bob Vila over here.
Benny Levine
🤣
We don't want yer fuckin drills!
That’s a Costco, you parade float!
Hopefully the lumber prices
So with the coming out of the closet and the grabbing the sheets with sexual arousal during the beating, then later the overreaction to the body building on tv, is Uncle Philly a fanoichio?
7:23 “Sil coulda got hoit.”
“Doc showed a lack of respect.”
As opposed to showing respect while gunning down a guy in a crowded restaurant.
*Shil
1:23 “Again, with the vitamins.”
*Carmine Sr. pokes head out from behind the aisle.*
“Yeah, again with the vitamins!”
There are millions of vitamins at stake here
😂🤣😂 my favorite character
So either name a vitamin or get over it
Be a better friend to yourself
"The family of Early Man", as camera pans over museum exhibit of grinning man's evolution through stages of knuckle dragging. Priceless!
Pills all ova the fuckn flwoor
I never noticed Gerry was the other guy with Fat Dom when they killed Vito.
Same here!
4:54 I've always wondered what the significance of him looking at John's picture is. Is he reflecting on John's fate as boss? How all he got out of the position was pain and suffering? It's an interesting detail, especially considering that he's clearly moved.
Torciano wasn't being made here, he was promoted to capo. Burt was being made, so they combined the ceremonies. I had to figure this out b/c it never made sense to me that a guy who had just been made like Gerry was in line to take over the top spot before Santoro whacked him.
He was being made. Sil mentions opening the books right before mentioning Gerry and Burt’s names. Opening the books=Being a made member.
If there was no Gerry, I would never learn the meaning of the word “sabbatical”
You don't watch Formula 1?
@@borko1990 he drinks formula.
Still waiting for the quatro gatti
@@jhndez26 at the San gervasi
Same here, I thought it was some kind of prescription drug. but it’s a paid vacation lmao
I love how the whole last season really warns/foreshadows what the actual ending of the show is, that infamous cut to black. “Scary thing is I didn’t even hear it until after the shot happened.” “You probably don’t even hear it when it happens right?” And they really nail it home that that’s what the ending is going to be. Incredible writing.
But did we know what the name of that Sangiovese that chick and Silvio had at Quattro Gatti, that one night she had something?
@@Agent1W Aids?!?!
@@HOTD108_ NONE of Sil's girls have AIDS, and I don't want to hear that word about his girls again!

HBO: Close the channel.
Borko: ok, just one more upload.
HBO: First off, it wasn't an offer. It's my position.
Haha, I never realised Gerry was the one who came out with the classic "the wine makes you emotional" line
Tony saying have a bread stick 😂
this show doesn't get enough recognition for the level of comedy...equally hilarious as it was dramatic
James Gandolfini always said The Sopranos was a comedy first and a drama second.
“You know the wine makes you emotional”
Classic lol
"Short but colorful" borko my boy, you have done it again!
*HBO executives lining up to take a picture* Borko: Look at this! The family of early man.
LOL !!!!!!
One of the best shows ever. Nothing contemporary comes even close.
“The family of early man” was one of the best jokes in this entire series, lol
It’s always so funny that in this show these dudes are always having meetings inside stores walking around talking loudly drawing all kinds of attention to themselves.
I gotta tell you borko, you look fantastic
The hospital scene proves NY killed Tony. Watch when Tony arrives to visit Phil. Everyone except one guy stands. The guy that remains seated looks awfully familiar...
Brilliant catch.
is he credited as same guy
Underappreciated. To put it mildly.
Walt Whitman! Lol the writing ✍️ in this series is amazing. Very nice job Editing Borko
Thank you
Who do you think jammed the pool cue into Vito's side pocket? Uncle Philly gave the order to Gerry or Dom? Or both? Did all three needlessly watch? Don't worry, we are gonna get to the impacted bottom of this.
Fuckin Earl Strickland over here.
I wonder if it was chalked?
@@willemdafuck Very funny Dom!
I like think they were about to leave, then Philly: "Hold it! One more thing."
@@willemdafuckI don’t quite get but… cute
i never realised the blond guy from the first couple clips was gerry, he had twice as much screentime than i always thought
Chris and Tony laughing at whatever Bobby said at the very beginning lol
I heard Bobby was pretty funny on set. When he dressed up like a hunter he was holding a huge dildo to make Tony laugh.
The ability of emerging from furnitures and transforming into houses of Phil is Hogwarts level
"Phil, take it easy, you know the shinebox makes you emotional"
"I didn't have any breadsticks. So, I compromised: I ate grilled cheese, off the rad-iator, instead."
Always loved David Chase having Phil come out of the closet right before Vito met his demise.
6:25 Sil: “IKNOW. What?”
I fuckin love Silvio man. He alone makes me miss this show all the sudden.
Phil Leotardo did twenty years in the can but most people don't know that about Phil because he hardly ever mentioned his time in prison.
He can hardly name it. You know it makes him emotional.
“Family of early man” 😂🤣
They were family not glorified crew
I never got that at all
Can you believe people say Borko looks like the Shah of Iran.....I never got that.
Man, I fucking hated Phil. Frank Vincent sure had a talent for that kind of role. RIP
Silvio didn’t know what happened until after the shot was fired, Bobby said you probably don’t even hear it when it happens, I mean if these things aren’t a foreshadowing of Tony’s demise in the series finale, I don’t know what is.
Ive watched this comp so many times and get the humor and symbolism of Phil emerging from the closet lol. Im not the brightest bulb but am aware enough to say this is one of the greatest shows ever bc of details like this
Again with the shineboxes.....
“Doc showed a lack of respect”😂
Doc showed a lack of respect. Completely allegorical.
Sacred and propane
Jerry went from soldier to almost boss in like 6 months. Definitely a problem in the story.
He was supposed to be being groomed for the top spot but its true that they prob didnt develop that story enough. It was just part of the set up for Phil vs Doc.
Nah he was basically this version of Christopher but even more experienced and not a drug addict
Remember he was helping out johnny/phil before and he was Phil's chosen successor most likely.
He wasn't anywhere near boss or capo but he was tight with the boss. Like mikey and junior in season 1 so he got to sit in meetings with them etc
@@Mainlyeverything yeah but he just got made in the episode where Phil insults Vito at the table which means he just became a soldier. And all of a sudden less than a year later he’s in line to possibly take over?
@@michaelparrella2151If you watch the show again, you'll realise Gerry was being promoted to capo, that's why Silvio references him in that scene. IIRC Carlo's cousin is the one being made.
Phil does look like the Shah of Iran ! I said that before Tony did
Gerry "The Hairdo" Torciano is basically the Lupertazzi/New York version of Silvio Dante.
It’s Don Junior’s turn in the driver’s seat and his channel gives out…his channel. He lost his channel he got banned is what I’m saying.
“Have a breadstick”😆
That’s gonna be my go-to advice for people freaking out on me from now on
I mean, the fact that philly was hiding in the closet and comes out to kill Vito, incredible comedy
That's called the Trome de ole -fool the eye.
Imagine being a store worker walking into these guys while rearranging the supply 1:12
So this guy gets made and then a couple of years later he's next in line to take over as boss? Is that even how the mafia works?
Only scene I remember Gerry from is when he gets whacked, as a lot of other characters... Heh heh
My question is, was Gerry originally a blonde and went dark or vice versa. I’d imagine he was probably born of dark hair but he made his first appearance blonde
perhaps we could assume he frequently dyed his hair, or that it went gray so he dyed it brown
His Haart
Balls is when you jam youtube with copyrightmaterial and looked them straight in the eye while you do it - about Borko
Phil comes out of the CLOSET to deal with Vito😂😂😂
Tony: “I gotta get some relief on this other situation”
Phil: “Go pay a visit to Vito at the job site at dawn, that’s where you Jersey fanooks go to get your relief”
Jokes apart, jerry was actually my favourite character, wish they did more with him
''Its an honour to be surrounded by men!" 😅😅😅😅
Phil coming out of the closet was a metaphorically menacing
Very allegorical.
Gerry is a recent made guy. How come he is the "acting capo" for Phil on the street? And how come he could rise to be the contender of being named successor to Phil? The time line is a bit off.
the timeline got fucked up
so Jerry gets made and a year later he's in the running for boss. Timeline got screwed up.
The guy was always "that another guy" who is besides the guys you pay attention in the essential scenes :) I've never thought that one of the guys bludgeoning Vito in the motel is that wannabe NY boss who got whacked before Silvio's eyes
