Simon, that is one of my favourite lines too!

Let's not also forget :

Christopher "Russians? They're not all bad."

Paulie "How 'bout the Cuban Missile Crisis? Cocksuckers flew four nuclear missiles into Cuba, pointed them right at us!"

Christopher "That was real? I saw that movie, I thought it was bullshit."

God, I miss that show...................

Same for me on both counts.

While I'm neither Italian nor from NJ, this show did have a feeling of verisimilitude for me. I grew up in Queens, in a neighborhood not far from where Gotti & his crew lived, the Ozone Park/Howard Beach area. I went to high school with a number of guys who were "connected", either directly or through their family. They got away with plenty because the high school admin was afraid to punish them. When The Sopranos first went on the air, it was almost as if I finally found out whatever became of them.

I got exactly the same feeling about some of the guys from my school when I first watched 'Britain's Dumbest Criminals'

AAACK! Pardon my bump, but I just realized that tonight, HBO is running a bunch of episodes from the final season back-to-back-to-back! Well, I guess I know how I'll be spending the remainder of my evening (even though I've already got the DVD's ... ) ...
