- On April 8, we reunited The Sopranos creator David Chase with fellow Sopranos writers Terence Winter (Boardwalk Empire, The Wolf of Wall Street), and Matthew Weiner (Mad Men, The Romanoffs) for a conversation about creating impactful characters, how writing on the iconic HBO series influenced their projects, and the stories and scripts that never got on air. Moderated by Larry Andries.

Terry Winter: 😃
Matt Weiner: 😁
David Chase: 🗿
HAHAHAHA
Their commitment to procastination is inspiring. Thank you, sirs.
David Chase is like the Bob Dylan of show-runners. He speaks kinda plainly and has an air of mystery around him but goes on to write some of the deepest stuff in his medium.
I cannot think of any better trio to talk about writing a script, what a honor to be able to listen to these genius. Thanks a lot for this!
Chase with a dramatic entry
and his face with totally no emotion (he did not appers to have a italian root)
@@paulorufalco That's why he never had the making of a varsity athlete.
@@paulorufalco he looks like a roman legionaire captain man
After watching so many roundtable/panels, it's refreshing to see such little the moderator has to chime in because the subjects are just bouncing off each other, talking passionately. Hate when these types of things are kind of paint by numbers or people aren't engaging. Took them a few minutes to get warmed up, but then it flies.
David Chase is so fucking cool. I cant think of a better word to describe him. He’s just cool.
Terrence and Matthew look like the same guy in different clothes
EXTREMELY talented writers. Thank God for these guys

Writing royalty. Loved every minute of it!
Chase is such a character, I love it
So amazing . This is basically a full scale episodic writing class for premium TV writing.
Thank you 🤝
- Without paid subscription to Master Class.
Such intelligent conversation really enjoyed it - lol I also love Matthew's giggles :P
Excellent conversation. Thanks for this, WGF
31:08 Terry pulls a Don Draper.
“I was at the movies...”
“I can’t focus until I start to feel the pressure.”
“It knocks out the cobwebs “
1:35
Hunter!
Genuinely one of the most insightful interviews on screenwriting I’ve seen.
1:41-1:43 - how sweet of Michele DeCesare to drop by (Chase's daughter and Meadow's bestie Hunter Scangarelo)
This is amazing. I'm going to meditate on this interview for a good long while. Probably forever.
Amazing interview with 3 of the greatest writers alive
A few legends talking shop.
Fabulous insight into writing greats and great fun to hear their banter; especially Matthew's infectious laughter.
all icons in one talk! i love this one . . . thank you!
Zoom couldn’t handle that much talent on screen at once
Thanks for doing and posting this man! I'm absolutely no writer, but I absolutely respect the hell out of that craft. At times, good writing can go unrecognized by fans it's a shame.
Creators of my favorite TV Shows. Thank you so much for this video.
insane BRAINS they all have
ROFL Chases daughter played Hunter on sopranos and she looks just the same after all these years XD
Look at this fuckin lineup 🤑
I went into this interview saying I’m only going to watch the first 15 min and finish the rest later. I ended up watching from beginning to end the first time. Love these 3 and the shows they’ve created.
Thank you for this!
What a terrific and helpful conversation!

Nice tips for specs thanks guys
huge! So valuable, thanks so much
a wild david chase appears!
These guys are the greatest around.
Winter is such a brilliant mind. Holy smokes
Thank you, gentlemen.
Always had a tiny crush on Michele DeCesare (Hunter) such a quirky character.
What fun! 😎 Thanks, all.
This is so cool!
What an interesting watch.
SO interesting to hear how some of the best writers ever to live have to battle the same demons as us mere mortals.
AMAZING
Super insightful, great questions!
The best in the business!
Hunter Scangarello!!
39:49 Interviewer kills the momentum of a great conversation. Come on!
Legends
thanks heaps for this, really helpful :)
that was fucking awesome
I proudly granted the 1000th like.
Terence Winter
👏👏👏
Tim Scott is a better interviewer than Presidential candidate.
Was that Hunter Scangerello 1:35 lol
..Must be her night off at the hospital
Fucking fantastic
Fuck I would love to hear more about that episode of Weiners that was tossed out. Did he saw Tony hires an FBI agent as his assistant?
Any chance we can read Matt's Sopranos script that didn't make it?
To me, the whole find your voice as a writer thing is more for newspaper columnists than tv writers. Tv writers have to write so many different types of characters. Opinion writers have a certain voice and opinion on the world and their readers know it.
Matt's had an eye lift.
Haha. The moderator let it slip, “you two are on the Mount Rushmore, sorry you 3”. Haha. We all know who he wasn’t including in that initial count. Poor Terry Winter.
Insane comment
🤨
@@trevorgoddard1125 Really? Boredwalk Empire? Sorry. “Boardwalk Empire”? Mad Men & Sopranos are two of the goat series. Boardwalk Empire want anywhere close to those. It had its moments sure but it was far too cartoony.
Terry wrote Scorsese’s best movie, I’m not going to feel too bad for him only having a B+ HBO show instead of A.
@@ajnorthrop9121 huh? Terry Winter didn’t write Raging Bull, or Taxi Driver, or Goodfellas, or Casino, or Gangs of New York, The Departed lol. Wolf of Wall Street was good but it’s a movie we’ve a dozen times. It’s basically a remix of Scorsese’s greatest hits.
does anyone know which writer David is referring to at 30:00 ?
I think Todd Kessler
@@dbag3345 that's interesting. I had heard that Chase let him go because he was so good that he feared he would take over from him.
@@olivierkepo It's touched on in the "Difficult Men" book by Brett Martin. I think the implication being he was too much of a Harvard guy to understand the Mob -- he wrote "D-Girl", which is one of the least mafia related episodes in the series -- and didn't really fit in the writer's room. Chase fired him even after they won the Emmy for co-writing "Funhouse".
D Bag that’s interesting. I heard he got rid of robin and Mitch for similar reasons. They just couldn’t get the mob stuff right so he hired Andy Schneider and Diane Frolov
@@dbag3345D Girl also probably my least favorite episode, the least tonally consistent
What the hell is Hunter Scangarello doing in David Chase's house
"Psychodegradable"
tim pretty sure sopranso had several forget aboud its
soo sick of Covid interviews!
Aw come on! What do these people know about writing for television?
Too vague.
EMBARRASSMENT OF RICHES
A master class in failure. None of these clowns ever made a successful movie.
At least they've made movies.
Winter and Chase: the "masters" at caricaturing Italian surnamed characters. And their favorite letter is "F" (no, not as in "Fantastic"). That's the grade I'd give them for refusing to move beyond cliches and stereotypes. It's called laziness and/or easy money. Very sad.
Wow the entire show went over your head huh
@@timgimmy609 Must have. Explain it to me. Or better yet, answer this simple question: Would the show have been so universally accepted as satire if it were called The Shapiros with a Madoff dad (a real person) as opposed to a Soprano (a fictional character?) If that comparison suddenly makes you uncomfortable, simply replace the evil father in the Sopranos and make him Black, Hispanic, Asian, Native American, Muslim or gay. Would you still hail the shows " brilliance and originality?" Please answer this question honestly.
@@williamdalcerro9476 well it would have to be an entirely different show in almost every aspect but yes I trust these guys to approach any subject they write about with a lot of research and consideration
shut up bro, the fuck you yapping about@@williamdalcerro9476
