THE SOPRANOLAND SITE
THE CAST
Can I get an autographed picture of/get in touch with my favorite Sopranos actor?
Not from us you can't. Sopranoland is a Fan Site that simply wishes to share information about this terrific series with the world. We have NO direct connection to the show, the actors or HBO.
These are only addresses we are aware of, if we are notified of any others we will let you know.
James Gandolfini, c/o Sanders Management, 2211 Corinth Ave. #210, Los Angeles, CA 90064. Please send a self-addressed, stamped envelope (large enough to hold an 8 x 10 photo), to guarantee return delivery.
Edie Falco, 9150 Wilshire Blvd. #175, Beverly Hills, CA 90212
I also recently came accross this official address for all The Sopranos actors...
Actor's Name, THE SOPRANOS, c/o HBO, 1100 Avenue of the Americas, New York NY 10036
What is the tattoo on Tony's shoulder? Is it real?
It is a tiger and no, it is Temptu. Temptu has provided James Gandolfini with a variety of "tattoos" for his numerous stage and big screen roles. They have also created "tattoos" for other Sopranos actors (Aida Turturro's is also a Temptu stock item) and for the other hit HBO show, OZ.
Temptu recently informed me that the Tiger Temptu is a stock item available for direct purchase.
Available on a Single Image sheet (item # S7) featuring 9 tigers, each measuring 1.8" x 3.5", or in the Tattoo Envelope sheet (Macho series) where the tiger is on a page with other designs. You can also call Tempu at to order. Don't forget to tell 'em Sopranoland sent you!
Who is the actress was that played Isabella in Episode #12?
The actress is Maria Grazia Cucinotta from the movie "Il Postino". Click here to visit her web site (note: the Italian version seems to have more pictures than the English version).
THE EPISODES
When will Season 3 start?
The Third Season of The Sopranos will air on HBO in March 2001. If you suffering a severe case of Sopranos withdrawal then check out our new section, SopranoSue's Sightings, for a behind the scenes glimpse at The Sopranos on location in New Jersey.
I am desperately seeking an episode of The Sopranos. Do you know where I can get a tape?
Our prayers and yours have finally been answered! On December 12th The Sopranos First Season will be released on both DVD and VHS, visit The Sopranoland Mall to preorder yours now. If you can't wait until then, repeats of The Sopranos First and Second Seasons will air on HBO starting December 3rd.
If you still can't wait, try e-mailing XjohnX, he helped me get my hands on the 2 first season episodes I didn't have on tape. Thanks, John!
Episode #20 - What is a "D-Girl"?
A derogatory Hollywood nickname for low-level film and television development executives of either sex (from "Buzzwords: L.A. Freshspeak" by Anna Scottie & Paul Young, contributed by LMG).
Episode #23 - I noticed Tony's boat is named "The Stugots", what does it mean?
Thanks to some helpful folks for the Italian lessons.
- "Gotz is Italian slang that literally means penis, however, it is used like the word 'fuck' is in English. Like we say, 'what the fuck are you doing' an Italian would say 'che gotz e fa' Which literally translates to 'What penis are you doing?'
XjohnX (via e-mail)
- "That is 'esto cozzo', Americanized pronunciation is Stugotz. It means 'this cock'"
R. Aprille (posted in the Sopranoland Forum)
- Yes, it means literally "this cock/dick" in Italian but as I grew up with the phrase it meant to have nothing, like the English slang terms "I haven't got dick, I didn't get dick". It would be used something like this..."Hey, you got any money?"...."Nah, I got stugots". It's also usually used with a crotch grab by the speaker. My father still uses it all the time.

When are you going to make some more SoundBytes?
As soon as I have time... running Sopranoland could be a full time job, but I've already got one. Until I get a chance to work on some more, check out Robin's Quick and Dirty Sopranos Sounds.
THE LOCATIONS
Where is The Sopranos filmed?
OK, have you been paying attention? The locations are filmed in New Jersey, David Chase's birth state. They also film at Silvercup Studios in Queens, New York on sets X, B and 9. Visit SopranoSue's Sightings for new Jersey facts and Sopranos location shooting reports.
Where is Tony's house?
North Caldwell, New Jersey, but that's all I can tell you. Think of it this way, If you lived there, would you want me giving the address out to everyone? I didn't think so. Once again, visit SopranoSue's Sightings for more location information.
THE MUSIC
I am trying to find info about the theme song for The Sopranos. Can you help?
The song is "Woke Up This Morning (Chosen One Mix)" by Alabama 3 (aka A3) and it is available on The Sopranos Soundtrack.
There is this song in Episode XX that I can't get out of my head. What is it?
Fortunately for you, someone has already tried to figure all the songs out. Jafo's Sopranos Music Page doesn't have 'em all, but it's got most of them. And if it isn't there, then we don't know the answer. There is also a copy of the Season Two music list on The Official HBO Sopranos Board, thanks to Sizz and Jafo.

THE MERCHANDISE
Where can I buy Sopranos merchandise?
We are always keeping our eyes peeled for Sopranos stuff, and what we have found is at The Sopranoland Mall. The Soundtrack is one of the items, along with t-shirts, posters, mugs and soon, The Sopranos First Season on either DVD and VHS (for the US and Canadian market). If you are able to play PAL format videos, then check 'em out at Cult Televison or yalplay.com). You can also check out auction items on eBay or try to win a trivia contest prize from the official HBO site.
THE SOPRANOLAND SITE
Again, Sopranoland is a Fan Site, so please don't waste your time sending us e-mail that says "Tell Tony I said Hi", "If you need my help on the show", "I love your show...". We love The Sopranos too, but it is emphatically NOT our show. We are fans just like you.
Also, please note that Sopranoland receives about 100 e-mails a week. We do look though them all and attempt to answer, but it may take us a while. Don't forget to check out our Links page, there are lots of other Sopranos sites out there, and they just might have what you're looking for.
