    Silvio was the most level headed character on the show, unless you tried sweeping cheese while he was playing cards.
  • @PericoDelgado88
    He should've told Howard "Hey Cheesefuk, let me finish my sentence"

    David Chase has an eye for talent, Steven's first role came out so powerfull, Chase knew how much potential he had, and he unlocked it
  • He played one of the best parts of the sopranos I loved his character he played it so well attitude accent and all thea above
  • Tony: Why in the hell are you late?! Christopher: The highway was packed with broken heroes on a last chance power drive. Silvio: flashes a wry smile at Christopher

    So fun to get cut everytime you try to explain something or answer a question, great job .
  • @Harpo.jr70
    A very talented man. And seems like a great person too.
  • @gredangeo
    I had no idea he was a musician with Bruce Springsteen's band. That's cool. For his first role, portraying Silvio is top notch.

  • @Dr.Ead151

  • @licmir3663
    He seems truly a great person and fun to hang out. We need a Sopranos sequel, not prequels!

    My fav episode is "the pine barrons" where pauly and Christopher get lost in the woods when they try to pull a hit on the Russian 😆 grade A comedy gold this one was.
