This works on shows like The Sopranos or The Shield because the characters still behave realistically but lose respect for themselves and everyone around them. So as the writers become more jaded for the show so do the characters. It made sense for Tony to become miserable because all of his friends are dead, his family hates him, and the mob wants to whack him and the FBI wants to incarcerate him. So he has nothing to live for and as a viewer there is almost nothing to watch for (that is positive). It is all depressing and dead which is how Tony views life. One bad moment away from either being shot to death or having a panic attack.Same pattern everytime...writers eventually lose respect for their audience.
Hopefully the Howard story ends on a better note.
Hello reddit fag.If anyone ever needed proof the users on here are retarded, just show them this thread.
I mean after Chuck reveals that it was him who was sandbagging Jimmy and not Howard, you'd think a lot of that animosity would have gone away. Especially since jimmy lets howard believe that he was responsible for Chuck's deathThat ship sailed long ago. Wasn't the first season of this show all about Jimmy and Kim's rivalry with Howard? How the fuck is it 5 fucking seasons later and that's still a major part of the plot?? I still can't get over that fucking boxing match either. Show has long since become a parody of itself.
I think some of the animosity is from Howard and Chucks treatment of Kim and them trying to fuck her when she got that Mesa Verde bank. Fuck knows I’m no rewatching all those seasonsI mean after Chuck reveals that it was him who was sandbagging Jimmy and not Howard, you'd think a lot of that animosity would have gone away. Especially since jimmy lets howard believe that he was responsible for Chuck's death
