That’s one aspect of The Sopranos that went really really bad. They wasted way too much time on Vito‘s character and him going up to New Hampshire.
Wasn’t that entire story line thought up by the actor?
The show wasted so much time on the subject - it was laughable and the worst of the Sopranos.
Then Vito shot the civilian he got in the car accident with. He deserved everything that happened to him.
The “Vito is Gay” storyline did come out of nowhere, as if somebody pressured Chase into shoehorning in a gay storyline in The Sopranos.
