NEW YORK - Joe Pantoliano, an actor who made his bones playing mobster Ralphie Cifaretto on “The Sopranos,” gets to be a good guy for his CBS series “The Handler.”
He stars as Joe Renato, a Los Angeles-based FBI agent who coaches and counsels a team of undercover agents, and often goes undercover with them.
Roaring hither and yon in his beat-up Bonneville, Renato plays “let’s pretend” with operatives including a rookie (Anna Belknap), a veteran (Hill Harper), an assistant (Tanya Wright) and a newly arrived transfer (Lola Glaudini, whom “Sopranos” fans will fondly remember as the FBI agent who went undercover to get chummy with mob moll Adriana).

HBO will ring in the new year with the final run of Sex and the City, then follow up in March with the long-awaited fifth season of The Sopranos.
Sex will begin the march to its series finale Jan. 4, with the first of its eight remaining episodes. The show last aired in September, when Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker) found herself being swept off her feet by a distinguished Russian artist (Mikhail Baryshnikov). Read the rest of this entry »

On the surface, the Italian myth is a battle of opposites.
On one side, there’s the lyrical - opera, Renaissance art, Dante. On the other, the brutish - “The Sopranos,” the mob myths, the whole church, patriarchal family and mama’s cooking thing.

In CodeFellas, Wired’s Simson Garfinkel tells the story of an IT guy for the mafia. Seems that the mob is pretty behind the times as far as technology goes, and life in organized crime is a lot quieter than The Sopranos would have you believe:
My sense is that the mob works a lot like GE or Time Warner. It’s more Jack Welch than John Gotti. … Read the rest of this entry »
November 21, 2003 —
NEW episodes of “The Sopranos” will begin airing in early March, HBO said yesterday.
HBO also confirmed dates for the return of two of its other best-loved shows.
First, the final eight episodes of “Sex and the City” - starring Sarah Jessica Parker, Cynthia Nixon, Kristen Davis and Kim Cattrall as four sexy, stylish and outspoken Manhattanites - will begin on Sunday, Jan. 4, at 9 p.m.
At 9:30 that same evening, it’s the long-awaited debut of new episodes of Larry David’s acclaimed sitcom, “Curb Your Enthusiasm.”
And then on Sunday, March 7, at 9 p.m., “The Sopranos” - starring James Gandolfini as the head of two dysfunctional families, his own and the New Jersey mob family he runs - will finally return to begin its fifth season.

HERE’S A LIST of the ways you can make a villain lovable. First is Hitchcock’s method: Make him good at his job while others screw up. We’ll sympathize, because everyone feels surrounded by incompetents where they work.
Second is to make him misguided or estranged. Make him watch as his solid way of life, with its loyalties and dignities, is worn away. Let him seem to feel that he’s losing the ground beneath his feet. A third trick is to make him a movie fan. If our villain has a sweet tooth for movies, a movie-loving audience will cut him some slack.

SEATTLE POST-INTELLIGENCER TELEVISION CRITIC
Time to call HBO on its shameless flimflammery. It’s going to be hard. But I must say that as I’ve watched the plot of “Carnivale” unfold, I’ve been nagged by the notion that the premium cable channel is stringing viewers along.
It’s as if HBO has become so fat on it successes that it no longer needs to grip us within, say, the first three episodes. This is my rather generous litmus test for any series. If baseball gives a batter three strikes, why not grant the same chance to television’s wildest pitches? Besides, “The Sopranos,” “Six Feet Under” and “Curb Your Enthusiasm” all passed with flying colors when each premiered. Read the rest of this entry »

In an episode of The Sopranos, Carmela Soprano and two friends are lamenting their men’s unfaithful ways over lunch when the conversation leads to Hillary Clinton.
“I can’t stand that woman,” says one.
“I don’t know. Maybe we could all take a page from her book,” responds another. Read the rest of this entry »
