First, let me say that I'm an avid Sopranos fan. I put the first-season DVD on my Amazon wish list and was thrilled when I was given it as a gift. I have a hearing problem and always use closed captioning while watching TV and videos. I have been disappointed to find that some DVDs that list CC don't actually have it. Unfortunately, The Sopranos: First Season is one of them. Yes, I do know how to use the DVD menu to select closed-captioning, but the only options listed are for quality of sound or the languages Spanish or French. Since my TV is always set for CC, that shouldn't be the problem. Consequently, I have to turn up the volume considerably, but still miss some of the dialogue.

This is a great show but i subscribed to HBO on demand and that has this on it. It shows all the soprano shows and its great, the shows are real dramatic with great acting, great setting and performence. This season was great but after this season they changed tony sopranos voice and it sounds kinda funny the way he talk at some lines, but i wonder why they changed his voice but this was a great season. I saw all the soprano seasons on HBO on demand and they were great, if you have io digital cable then thats more better when you want to watch movies, watch shows, watch animation and all those other stuff, thats what i did to the sopranos and its better then just spending 99.00 on a boxset cause thats how much the soprano boxset cost at stores but i have HBO on demand and thats better, and it shows all the soprano seasons and i watched them, so this was a great season.

By far, this is the best of the seasons. Of course, I should hold my tongue because I still haven't seen season 6, but my interest began to cool with season four. With some series, it takes a season or two to really 'find' itself and define its characters, but not this one. I laughed, I was shocked, and I was utterly impressed.
Take it from a Godfather I and II addict (and Goodfellas), this is phenomenal.

Warning! Spoilers Below for anyone who has yet to see the first season!
Going into the Sopranos, I wasn't sure if it was going to be good or not. Sometimes shows critics like aren't always the best. And I'll have to admit, the first 3 or 4 episodes wern't anything special. Then there was an episode called "College", which was definetly one of the finest hours of the season. From then on every episode continued to be better then the next. If I had to pick a favorite episode, I'd have to go with the season finale, "I Dream Of Jeanne Cusomona", for two reasons. One, because of the superb scenes between and Tony and his physciatrist, Dr. Melfi(Lorraine Bracco, deliverying probably my favorite performance of the season.)And the second one is when Tony confronts his mother(Nancy Marchand) after she has a stroke. THis was definelty my favorite scene of the season.
There is not a bad performance on this show. If I had to pick three, it would be Lorraine Bracco, James Gandolfini, and Nancy Marchand. These three are just perfect.
There is a body count, severel people have been killed. One of the main chracters fate is left open at the end of the season
