Something to discuss

Expensive David Chase, may we please get a “Sopranos” reboot with Meadow operating the circle of relatives trade?

I will’t be the one one that idea this after looking at the Tremendous Bowl industrial starring Jamie-Lynn Sigler.

Seeing her pressure the path that James Gandolfini did as her TV dad, Tony Soprano, after which catch up with Robert Iler, who performed her on-screen brother, A.J. Soprano, hit me within the feels.

Reboots were constructed on much less is all I am announcing.

Granted, of the greater than 70,000 attendees on the recreation, now not many have been noticed dressed in mask on the out of doors venue.

However for celebs, a few of whom have publicly admonished other folks to put on mask, a heightened profile approach a better stage of accountability.

And a reminder that the web is at all times looking at — and able to remark.
