"The Sopranos" is celebrating the 25th anniversary of the premiere of its first episode. The show reached 13.2 million viewers in its heyday.
During the height of its popularity, "The Sopranos" drew 13.2 million viewers and won 21 Emmy Awards in various categories and five Golden Globes and came in at No. 1 on Rolling Stone's list of the 100 greatest TV shows of all time in 2022. Lori Bashian is an entertainment production assistant for Fox News Digital.
"The reason 'The Sopranos' is so successful … is because it deals with children, it deals with parents, it deals with family. I mean, I think the older characters on ‘The Sopranos,’ especially in the beginning, I mean, you don't see older characters written like that," Gandolfini told "60 Minutes" in 2005. "I just think it's so well written. The writers … I think they're unbelievable. I sit there and read it and just go, ‘Jesus Christ, that’s so g-----n smart.'"
