wherever you get your podcast. The Sopranos changed Television. The HBO series was centered on mobster Tony Soprano, a deeply flawed male antihero, that

then innovative approach cast a long shadow and would be duplicated by many shows in the years

that followed, series like The shield and breaking bad.

But the thing that really set the sopranos apart

was the fact that Tony was in therapy,

a genius touch that granted viewers special access

to his inner conflicts.

This year marks the 25th anniversary of the show's

premiere so we think it's a perfect time to revisit our conversation about the

series. I'm Aisha Harris. And I'm Glenn Weldon and in this encore

episode of NPR's pop culture happy hour, we're looking back at the Sopratos. This message comes from NPR sponsor Cook Unity.
