Sopranos Countdown

We're just 48 hours away from the sixth "Sopranos" season, and expect in-depth analysis in this space on Monday. Meanwhile, the Washington Post ran a piece the other day on the ritual that happens when an actor on the show gets whacked. But there was a quote from Dominic Chianese that intrigued me:

But you sense that even in the best of times [Chianese] serious to the point of morose. He laughs just once in the next 40 minutes, recalling one of the more profane mutterings of Junior Soprano, Tony's curmudgeonly uncle.

"I think that was the first time that word was used on American television," he says, referring to a phrase that can't even be hinted at here. "We were kind of proud of that."

What could he be talking about? "Motherless fuck"? "Anthony is a cunt hair away from owning all Northern Jersey – and I am that cunt hair"? I'm guessing that's the one.
