Customer reviews:  Couching The Sopranos, 2007-08-28
Was very skeptic of this publication from the title name. Once I skimmed over the content inside, I KNEW I wanted it.
Inside you will be exposed to the reasoning for actions of the characters. It offers insight to their motivations and their way of thinking.
Very entertaining for those who want exposure that goes beyond the surface of the action you see in the series.
 They're not really on the couch, 2003-02-19
Right off the bat, I realized that I would never get what I expected with this book -- a psychoanalytic assessment of the characters of TV's "The Sopranos." Rather, what you have is a light weight paperback with overviews of the episodes containing some interesting insight into character development and dialogue, but never really getting into the characters' heads. Perhaps we need Dr. Melfi to invite the other "family" members onto her couch and ask _her_ to write a book!
One of the few redeeming qualities of this book is Yacowar's comparison of the Sopranos series to Francis Ford Coppola's The
Godfather films, but you have to skip to the back of the book for this. If you were hoping to really see each of the characters on the couch, you will be disappointed. If you are just a huge fan who wants to reflect on one of the greatest television shows ever created in a 1 hour read, then I would commend this book. Customers who bought this item also bought:
