If you haven’t watched The Sopranos yet, chances are you never will.
Look, we may be on alert level 3 from 1 June for some time to come, so be a sensible human and watch the iconic show, as well as The Wire.
Some would throw Breaking Bad into the mix as essential viewing, and I can’t argue.
Tony and his pals have a rather unique vocabulary, much of which isn’t suited for church or the dinner table, and it’s worth a trip down memory lane to reexamine some of the language used.

The Sopranos might be the greatest TV show ever. It launched the modern day Golden Age of Television, made it possible for complicated antiheroes to be the main protagonist in a series, and featured some of the best characters and writing of all-time.
But none of those are the true lasting legacy of creator David Chase’s mafia family drama. The most important thing the show did was finally let everyone know what “gabagool” means…
HBO‘s hilarious new video, “The Sopranos Dictionary,” is a linguistic look back at some of the more unique terms spoken on the series.
Enjoy the trip down memory lane:
