Sopranos Packet

Post by The King's Flight to the Scots »

Hey all,

In line with my quarantine viewing, I've written 35 questions on The Sopranos, which I'd like to read tomorrow at 9 PM Central. I'll set up a special Discord server for this and post the link tomorrow in this thread, so please come by if you're interested.
