The boss Jackie was dying of cancer. Tony and Junior were basically underbosses and next in line. Junior was always in his brothers shadow (Tony's father) and felt it was his time. There was a whole lot of shyt boiling over (Tony preventing Junior killing some dude in arties restaurant, Tony protecting Chris and his friend when they were robbing trucks under Juniors protection, Tony basically still running shyt even though Junior was supposedly the boss, Tony making fun of Junior eating p*ssy, Junior finding out about Tony going to a shrink) Tony was about to kill Junior but the feds nabbed him before anything could be done. Tony let it slide and just took over all of his business. Tony's mother didn't have a major role but she knew about it and didn't have a problem with it. She was mad Tony put her in that nursing home. Plus she was overall miserable and crazy as fukk in general. Damn I miss the Sopranos :noah:

GOAT tied with The Wire, no other show even comes close to these two.

Junior was old school, he didn't really get Tony (just like Tony didn't really get Chris). Especially when that whole shrink thing popped up, his first thought was that Tone was a snitch. 'Panic attacks' is not something that older generations believe in (even Tony didn't want to believe in it at first).

Add to that everything GOD II said.

I mean not only was Tony running shyt in the background, he did that specifically so that if the feds ever found a hook they would nab Junior for everything - which is exactly what happens. He also had that b!tch-ass Mikey and psycho Livia whispering in his ear that he could get away with it. Even if Tony had been popped his crew would've murked Junior and them immediately.

Tony had some other captains put thier mothers in the nursing home as well, and he was meeting with them behind Junior's back. That shyt is comical now that I think ot it, Tony didn't give a fukk :heh:

Nah breh, Tonys Mother had no knowledge of the plan to kill Tony. In fact if I can remember correctly she was old/naive and out of it when Junior was discussing it with her in the car and she thought he was talking about something completely different.


Tony basically had a vendetta against his mother for nothing. She had no role in the attempt on his life

:wtf:
You need to watch the old episodes again. Livia was a crazy bytch and shytted on Tony any chance she could. She did instigate the beef between Tony and Junior by telling him that Tony was seeing a shrink so Junior would kill him. Seeing a shrink is a sign of weakness and snitching, especially for a boss. If there was anything bad that happened she blamed it on Tony. Anybody on the outside looking in would never have guessed that was his mom.

She knew. She was the one who told Junior about all the capos mom being in the nursing home and he went ballastic saying "you know what I have to do" She only played dumb and senile to avoid repercussions but she was aware Junior planned a hit on Tony. Plus she was on the tapes the feds played for tony after he almost got killed bu Juniors hitmen

She was out of it and nursing home status bro. She had no clue as to what she was saying or what was really going on. This is the same woman who didn't even know her own grandkids names towards the end


:what:


Again if u google/youtube that scene where Junior is talking about offing Tony you'll realize that she had no idea as to what he was really talking about. This is pretty much common knowledge

Exactly. She was always snitching to Junior about Tonys business and instigating. She always made Tony's life hell and he put up with her even when her other two daughters left town. Those throwback scenes were crazy. You remember when she threatened to shove a fork in Tony's eye.

And she has no idea as to what junior was ACTUALLY talking about during those tapes. She was just responding like an old naive person with Alzheimers.


I thought this was pretty much a fact. I think u guys just ran with Tony's interpretation/view of the events and totally forgot about what had actually taken place.

Yup. Livia was not senile at all. She was actually the one engineering the beef between Junior and Tony. She knew how to push both of their buttons. The last straw was when she told Junior that Tony was meeting with Johnny Sac and all his capos at the Retirement 'Community'. Basically making Junior Boss in name only and the biggest chump of all time.

At that point Junior didn't have a choice but to kill Tony.

His real enemy in that first season was not the gangsters, it was his own mother.

You are way off. She knew exactly what she was doing. Look at the interaction with her and Junior during that scene. Her facial expression were on some

Breh stop it:childplease: We are telling you it was all an act. Peep the episode I dream of Jeanine carmososwhateverthefukk after tony got shot. Junior and livia ran over to Tonys house to save face and livia was pulling the dementia shyt acting like she didn't recognize AJ and Meadow. Its was so obvious and phony that Junior was about to bytchslap her after they left the house
