Damn, was easily the best Sopranos character besides Tony and probably one of the best characters ever to grace the small screen.

He might have been the most interesting character in a show crammed wall to wall with them. And he had some of the best lines too. This is probably my all time favorite Paulie Walnuts scene.
RIP Mr. Sirico.

Terrific actor...kind of got trapped into particular kind of roles thanks to The Sopranos, but a terrific actor nonetheless. RIP

Before he was an actor, Tony Sirico was an actual mobster.
(He also served in the U.S. Army).

Best episode ever was Pine Barrens when he & Chrissie got lost.
In The NY Times obit, turns out no hairdresser on set was allowed to touch his hair. He took care of it by himself.

R.I.P. My favorite thing about Paulie were his odd mannerisms. Everyone on the show said "hooo!" or "ohhh!," but there was something special and particularly hilarious about how he did it. His unexplained, gruff "huh" noise also made me laugh. I think my favorite episode featuring him and one of my favorites in general is "Remember When" for how it shows him in a more human light than usual.

I liked part of the episode where Paulie goes to FL with Tony... Tony hears Paulie laughing in an annoying way at some sit-com he's watching on TV inside his hotel room (can't remember the sit-com, but it was a real show) and because of this, Tony begins contemplating whacking Paulie.

Funniest moment for me was when they got back to New York & Chris realized he hadn’t gotten Adriana a gift from Italy. Hence the quick pit stop at Fendi at JFK to buy her something.
What about when Tony, Paulie & Chrissie went to Italy? So hilarious. Tony got mighty irritated by Paulie’s unsophistication.
