In this
season-by-season behind-the-scenes account, Sopranos actors and Talking
Sopranos podcast hosts Michael Imperioli and Steve Schirripa compile a collection
of interviews with the actors, crew members, and creators who made the show one
of television’s greatest successes.
Woke Up
This Morning might
be more accurately titled Talking Sopranos: The Book for it distills and
rehashes the podcast’s anecdotes. For those who never listened to the podcast,
you get (most of) the best of it without Michael and Steve’s bickering, inane
tangents, and product shilling, and there are definitely some amusing and
eye-opening insights regarding casting decisions, creative inspirations and influences,
and near disasters. However, those who have been keeping up with the podcast
will likely be let down, especially in light of the hosts’ claim that the book
contains never previously revealed material. Like Chrissy pushing Webistics,
their hype for this book isn’t exactly on the level.
