A question for all fellow italian Americans here on tftv. Does The Sopranos, a drama tv show aired on HBO from 1999-2007, portray italian americans in a negative light. Like for example when they pronounce capicola, a delicious cured pork delicacy, as gabagool. In their own weird way , and of course I never met an italian american from the northern jersey, and new york city area to speak in a such a exaggerated over the top way. I feel like the sopranos, puts a stain on italian americans, discuss

It's Sicilian Italian, which sounds exaggerated compared to other Italian accents.

First of all it's new Joisey, not jersey. Second, i've yet to meet an italian new joiseyan who didn't talk like that.

Just like how all french people say oh la la

Idk about Jersey but my aunt has such a Long Island accent it almost sounds Australian. Seems to be a lot of variations on east coast accents. As for image it can’t get much worse after Jersey Shore. We want justice.
