A landmark drama that changed the television landscape for generations, The Sopranos celebrates its 25th anniversary in 2024. To honor the occasion, HBO has produced a two-part documentary directed by Alex Gibney entitled Wise Guy: David Chase and The Sopranos. The first part covers the cultural impact of the hit mob drama and how the show altered television for the better, turning HBO into a small-screen power player. The second part focuses on Chase’s upbringing, personal and professional aspirations, and what inspired him to tell a New Jersery-set mafia story.
