Best episode of the third season. Paulie and Chris make a lot of funny and clumsy scenes. Very entertaining.
What a hilarious and interesting episode. It was like The Sopranos mixed with a Coen Brothers movie (Fargo?) with just a hint of Waiting For Godot. Almost every scene with Paulie and Chris was gold. The way Paulie was constantly making things worse and trying to blame it on Chris was funny and built up the deeper cracks in the relationship between the two. There was a little bit of The Simpsons "Mountain of Madness" played mostly straight here, and it worked perfectly.
I'm getting a little tired of the Gloria stuff here. Mefli's comment implying that Tony's attracted to women like his mother is interesting, but the execution just leaves me kind of underwhelmed. My wife was right to point that she feels a lot like Lila from Dexter (who postdates this episode), who wasn't really my favorite. She also has a certain quirky childishness akin to Amy from The West Wing which puts me off as well. She feels more like a device than a character, but I'm sure the introduction of this unstable element to the proceedings is going to cause problems in the remaining couple of episodes, probably at an inconvenient time.
Which leaves us with the Jackie Jr. stuff. Again, I have a big meh. This feels like Dawson's Creek type stuff to me, and my patience for it is growing thin. I get the thematic relevance of it, emblematic of the failed hopes for the next generation in comparison to Meadow (and to a lesser extent Chris). But it's just so plodding and predictable at this point that I have a hard time getting into the storyline, and the acting from Jackie Jr. isn't enough to keep a dull story afloat. We'll see where it goes.
This doesn't read like a 9 out of 10 review, but the Chris and Paulie stuff was really good, so I still finished the episode smiling.
This is one of the best episodes that I have watched so far in this series (if not the best). Brilliant. I loved every second of it.
Hilarious episode, Paulie and Christopher in the woods looking for a Russian commando that gave them the slip. Paulie - “He’s an interior decorator” Chris - “But his apartment looked like sh1t” :laughing:
This episode is classic!! TV Magic.
The bond between two assholes in the woods. When you’re in the shit, nothing making sense, and everything going wrong, the one thing you can depend on is the other guy going through it too, even if you want to kill each other. He’s all you got.
such a beautiful episode, referring to the pine barrens layered with blankets of snow, especially when the sun was setting. even the scenes in the jeep with chris bleeding, the scene where paulie had him by the neck specifically is another beautifully shot scene that showed the dynamic of chris & paulie greatly, which it was throughout this episode. it reminded of ‘4 days out’ in breaking bad. i really do hope to see more of them.
“captain or no captain, right now, we're just two assholes lost in the woods.”
“all the shit we been through, u think i’d really kill u”
the ending aswell where melfi implies that tony’s relationships fit into the freud theory.
easily one of my new favourites of the series.
Rest In Peace Paulie. Thank you
Hilarious! I laughed so much with this one, the greatest of the season no doubt!
The funniest episode so far.
